Freddie Mac CFO Commits Suicide
I guess robbing the public blind eventually weighs on some peoples conscience. If only Greenspan ,Bernanke, Paulson, John J. Sweeney, Rahm Israel Emanuel etc would follow suit.
VIENNA, Va. -- The acting chief financial officer of Freddie Mac, David Kellermann, has apparently committed suicide, Fairfax County Police say.
Fairfax County Police spokeswoman Mary Anne Jennings says Kellermann, 41, was found at his Hunter Mill Estates home Wednesday morning.
Jennings says police responded to the home after family members called police around 5 a.m.
"We were called from inside the house to come investigate an apparent suicide," Jennings says.
Because of legal ramifications, Jennings says she can't describe the nature of the suicide.
"We're not to give you details of the condition of the body, except to say it was an apparent suicide," Jennings says.
A final determination that his death was a suicide will come from a medical examiner.
Kellermann has been with Freddie Mac for more than 16 years.
He was named acting chief financial officer of the agency in September 2008. He took over after Anthony "Buddy" Piszel resigned.
As CFO, Kellermann is responsible for the company's financial controls, financial reporting and oversight of the company's budget and financial planning.
Freddie Mac has declined to comment.
