    Freddie Mac Chief David Kellerman Commits Suicide

    NEW YORK (WCBS 880) -- Farifax, VA police tell CBS TV affiliate WUSA in Washington DC the acting head of Freddie Mac, David Kellerman, has committed suicide.

    Police responded to the Kellerman home after receiving a call from his wife.

    Kellermann was 41-years-old.

    Sabrina Ruck, a Fairfax County police spokesman, confirmed to the AP that Kellermann was dead, but she could not confirm that he committed suicide despite WUSA reporting that Fairfax police told them it was a suicide.

    Kellermann's death is the latest blow to Freddie Mac, a government controlled company that owns or guarantees about 13 million home loans. CEO David Moffett resigned last month.

    McLean, Va.-based Freddie Mac and sibling company Fannie Mae, which together own or back more than half of the home mortgages in the country, have been hobbled by skyrocketing loan defaults and have received about $60 billion in combined federal aid.

    Kellermann was named acting chief financial officer in September 2008, after the resignation of Anthony ``Buddy'' Piszel, who stepped down after the September 2008 government takeover. The chief financial officer is responsible for the company's financial controls, financial reporting and oversight of the company's budget and financial planning.

    Before taking that job, Kellerman served as senior vice president, corporate controller and principal accounting officer. He was with Freddie Mac for more than 16 years.

    I wonder what he knew.

    I'll pray for his family.

    Side note: I know he was talking to AIG execs, not FRE execs, but I'll bet Senator Grassley feels like **** today.

    I hope he didn't do that because of the job. There are other solutions.

    It makes you wonder if there may be some kind of federal investigation of wrongdoing going on and there may be some dirt.

    Or perhaps, he was just a depressed person that needed help.

    Yeah, this is the first thing I thought -- what did he know that is about to break.

    So they didn't rule out an angry investor might've murdered him?

    Does this help: What is the connection among Vince Foster, Eric Holder, David Kellerman, Barack Obama and the DC madam? Happy? ;)

    It's an assassination by Obama's fascist secret government task force. Communism at it's best. Government assassinations. That's why Obama wants to ban guns!

    :) That's my left-wing conspiracy theory. I wonder how close it is to the truth.
