New York: Investment Banker Found Dead on Sidewalk Outside East Side Apartment Building
March 18th, 2014And another one.
Via: New York Post:
A 28-year old Manhattan investment banker has died after an apparent suicide, police sources said.
Kenneth Bellando, who worked at Levy Capital since January, was found dead on the sidewalk outside his East Side building on March 12, after allegedly jumping from the sixth-story roof, sources said.
Bellando, a former investment bank analyst at JPMorgan, is the son of John Bellando, chief operating officer and chief financial officer at Condé Nast. His brother, John, a top Chief Investment Officer with JPMorgan, works on risk exposure valuations.
Several John Bellando emails were cited during testimony at the Senate Finance committee’s inquiry into the bank’s losses during the infamous London Whale trade fiasco.
Is anyone else but me getting exasperated with the trite explanation of bank personnel dying by “apparent suicide?” This is insulting to my intelligence. While my IQ quota might not be too high these days, sheesh. If my body were found splat on a side walk tomorrow I would hope my family would not accept my “apparent suicide,” and let me “rest in peace.”
This is nuts. Who are these people who say these people found “jumping” off of buildings have done it out of suicide? Lets get the names of the police and investigators who are giving these on the spot determinations. Or ask them who their boss is who tells them to tell us they are “suicides.”
