A weird thing about the Madoff suicide

[SoCalDem]

He had been despondent for a while, so wifey heads for a vacation in Florida & leaves their 2 year old with him?

It's lucky that he at least had some conscience..he did not take the baby with him...

1. ... are there Madoff assets/accounts that haven't been seized yet?

... if there are, my first thought was that this is a Ken Lay/Enron impression. :shrug:

2. Ken Lay didn't leave his body swinging from a pipe.

6. Ken certainly took his body with him to his

undisclosed location in some lovely country with all that money.

3. No.. he did himself in.. I just wonder why the wife called her father

instead of the police...when he was sending her a flurry of odd emails during the night..

This time of year is hard on depressed people, and he certainly had plenty to be depressed about..he may have been the only Madoff with any conscience..

One would think that winter vacations in Florida would be out of reach for that family if their assets had truly been seized..

4. Do we lack compassion and vilify all suicide victims or just those with money?

5. commenting on a weird circumstance is not vilification

:P

7. I wondered about that too

Did they have a nanny?

Strange story.
