Suspicious Deaths of Bankers Are Now Classified as “Trade Secrets” by Federal Regulator

It doesn’t get any more Orwellian than this: Wall Street mega banks crash the U.S. financial system in 2008. Hundreds of thousands of financial industry workers lose their jobs. Then, beginning late last year, a rash of suspicious deaths start to occur among current and former bank employees. Next we learn that four of the Wall Street mega banks likely hold over $680 billion face amount of life insurance on their workers, payable to the banks, not the families. We ask their Federal regulator for the details of this life insurance under a Freedom of Information Act request and we’re told the information constitutes “trade secrets.”

I don't get how this is even legal. Corporations can literally get away with murder. If a person insured someone secretly then that someone somehow fell out of a building, the would-be beneficiary would be locked up faster than you can say Fred MacMurray.

LOL giovanni. Classic.

Makes one wonder if there was actually something to all these jumpers after all, seems like its now official... N

It's not "legal" it's actually a form of invoking trust interpretation... to me this is a sign of desperation when trust law is used in this manner... they are pulling the last cards they have to play, when they are stooping this low, and also technically making themselves most vulnerable if only someone could come forward and attack them from a breach of trust issue instead of just commercial criminal law, which as by now people are figuring out, is just a commercial transaction itself.... (that's why they only negotiate a fee and pay it...)

update: I felt inclined to put this another way... trust is always operating in the background, the art is to "see" it... they have everyone in the bag, via the Legal Name, which also can be interpreted and operated as a property, one which the State is holding the legal title to. Everyone falls into the bag of presumption of constructive trust which is legally expressed as a presumption of surety for the NAME they claim to be or to own, etc... via this interpretation the courts (or the lawyers that work for the corporations that know how to work the courts) can do whatever they want... while at the same time all liability is falling on the surety.

Another JPMorgan Banker Dies After Murder-Suicide: Chokes Wife, Stabs Himself To Death (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-02-09/another-jpmorgan-banker-dies-after-murder-suicide-chokes-wife-stabs-himself-death)

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-5.jpg (http://www.zerohedge.com/users/tyler-durden) Submitted by Tyler Durden (http://www.zerohedge.com/users/tyler-durden) on 02/09/2015 14:14 -0500

By now, there have been so many banker-related suicides that it has become a moot point of


i) tracking them all or

ii) trying to find a pattern.
And yet, one name continues to stand out: JPMorgan. The bank which has been most prominent among the list of "suicided" bankers notched one more casualty over the weekend when "a JPMorgan Chase & Co. employee strangled and stabbed his wife to death before turning the knife on himself, according to police who are treating the couple’s death in Bergen County, New Jersey as a murder-suicide."

Bloomberg reports the gruesome details (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-08/jpmorgan-worker-choked-wife-to-death-before-suicide-police-say)according to which Michael A. Tabacchi, 27, and his wife, Iran Pars Tabacchi, 41, were found dead Friday about 11:30 p.m. in the bedroom of their Closter home after a 911 call placed by the husband’s father, Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli said in an interview. Closter is located in northern New Jersey, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) from midtown Manhattan.

It wasn't a nail-gun this time. It was a knife:



Autopsy results on Sunday showed the wife died of strangulation and a stab wound to the chest while Michael Tabacchi died from a single self-inflicted stab to the chest, he said. As his LinkedIn profile below shows, Tabacchi was an associate for JPMorgan in its global custody product unit.

This is how he pitched himself:

"Specialties: Excel and VBA is my bread and butter, I am very good and creative with data manipulation and reporting and can leverage my business knowledge to provide senior managers what is needed before asked to do so. I am also proficient with the remaining Microsoft office products (Word, Access, PowerPoint, and SharePoint)." Full profile below (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/michael-tabacchi/3a/487/227):

But most eerie and disturbing is how comparable the Tabacchi double-death is to a comparable case from July of last year when as we reported (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-07-10/banker-suicides-return-jpmorgan-executive-blasts-wife-kills-self-shotgun)not only did a JPM executive director shoot his wife multiple times before using the same weapon on himself (like now), but the tragedy also took place in New Jersey.

As IBTimes reports (http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/former-london-jp-morgan-manager-julian-knott-killed-wife-shotgun-murder-suicide-1455980), Jefferson Township (New Jersey) police report that the Global Network Operations Center Executive Director, "Julian Knott, age 45, shot his wife Alita Knott, age 47, multiple times and then took his own life with the same weapon." The silver lining: like back then, so now, the offspring of the dead couple survived the massacre.

from the above link. Now we potentially get to the chemtrail/vaccine/monsanto GMO connection, via bankers and someone who modeled organic stews. Organics modeled for drug use can mean... genetic debilitation, and potentials in genetic denial ---genetic downturn in the people who consume the given molecule.

Which, as a simple guess... it would take most medical research a potential decade or more to realize the existence of the given organic intruder. The kind of things they have to try when people figure out GMO and additives like aspartame. Intelligent people moving into intelligence and awareness make ****ty hosts for energetic feeding and being slave races. The trick is to catch them where they are not looking. They like cows in pain, it works much better for them.

New York Investment Banker Jumps To His Death From Luxury Downtown Building
(http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-05-29/new-york-investment-banker-jumps-his-death-luxury-downtown-building)

Submitted by Tyler Durden (http://www.zerohedge.com/users/tyler-durden) on 05/29/2015 14:13 -0400

Yesterday, New Yorkers walking by the Ocean Luxury Rental apartment building at (http://ocean1west.com/)1 West St around 10:40am, were greeted with a gruesome sight: a 29-year-old man had just jumped to his death from the 24th floor.

According to initial reports, the man landed on a car that was driving toward the Battery Tunnel at the time. He was pronounced DOA at the scene.

Today, we learn that the tragic incident was merely the latest banker suicide, when according to the NY Post (http://nypost.com/2015/05/28/man-falls-to-death-outside-luxury-building/)the still jumper was the latest in a long series of investment bankers who have decided to take their own life.

The 29-year-old man has been identified as Thomas J Hughes. The youngest of three brothers, Thomas was educated at the $52,000 a year Canterbury School in Milford, Connecticut and graduated with a degree in economics at Northwestern University where he was on the Varsity squash team before heading to Wall St and getting a job with Citibank.

Most recently he was an associate at investment bank Moelis.

Hughes plunged from the 24th floor of the luxury Ocean apartment building at 1 West St. at about 10:40 a.m. and landed on a guardrail near the northbound Battery Park Underpass, narrowly missing a black SUV, in what appears to have been a premeditated suicide.

The man’s body was mangled by the impact, leaving one of the vehicle’s passengers horrified, witnesses said.

“I went outside, and the woman in the car was screaming, ‘I didn’t know where he came from!’ ” said Hans Peler, 48, a manager at the building’s parking garage. “It happened right in front of our guy who waves cars in with the flag. He was so shaken up, I told him to go home.”

A spokeswoman at Moelis & Company shared her condolences according to the Daily Mail (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3102513/Successful-investment-banker-29-leaps-death-luxury-New-York-apartment-returning-Bahamas-holiday.html): "We are saddened by the news of Tom's death and send our sincere condolences to his family and friends at this very sad time. "Tom was a talented and valued team member and a positive force in our firm. He will be greatly missed."

John Hughes, the father of the investment banker, said that he fears his son turned to drink and drugs to cope with the stress of work. He said Thomas had been under a ‘lot of pressure’ and that he even had to work on a recent holiday in the Bahamas, adding that his son was someone who "liked to work hard and liked to party" and feared that he found release in illegal drugs which turned him suicidal.

‘Thomas was a happy, jovial, successful, good looking, very sociable individual.

‘The only explanation is that I know he’s been working very hard and has been under a lot of pressure.

‘His work did not leave much time for enjoyment but that’s the nature of the assignment that he chose.

‘I also know that sometimes when one is in that environment you can turn to alcohol or other types of drugs...

‘...at a time when he was under stress he probably resorted to illegal drugs, causing this incredibly poor judgement, is probably the best I can say.

‘He must have had some problems that I was not privy to.’ Tourists in a nearby open-air bus that was stuck in traffic, saw more than they bargained for when the gruesome scene unfolded right in front of them. Then they quickly found their bearing and realized the tragedy would look perfect on their Instagram profile, and scrambled for their cellphones to snap pictures of the body, said workers at the building.

“The head hit the railing . . . Half his head is on one side of the railing, half on the other,” recalled Frank Rodriguez, 44, a handyman who was working nearby. “It’s never worth this . . . Life is too precious.”

Sources said the young banker had made several attempts to kill himself earlier in the morning, including cutting his wrists, before making the plunge.

The man — whom police did not immediately identify — was from a wealthy family in Westchester County, sources said. He had apparently become very successful on his own.

He owned his apartment in the 36-story Ocean complex, which overlooks The Battery and New York Harbor, and had just returned from a vacation in the Bahamas, sources said. At this point we have lost count of how many bankers have taken their own lives in the past year, despite stocks rising to all time highs and an artificial "wealth effecting" environment which, if nobody else, benefits the banker class. We dread to think what happens to New York's pavements once the central planners finally lose control.

All joking aside, though, it's similar to what Putin has done, right?

Ed Gilligan, the president of American Express and likely successor to take over the company, died unexpectedly on Friday morning after becoming "seriously ill" on a flight from Japan back home to New York.

"This is deeply painful and frankly unimaginable for all of us who had the great fortune to work with Ed, and benefit from his insights, leadership and enthusiasm," Ken Chenault, CEO of American Express, wrote in a memo to all employees. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Lisa, and their four children – Katie, Meaghan, Kevin and Shane. He was a proud husband and father, and his love for his family was evident in all that he did."

Gilligan joined American Express 35 years ago as an intern and worked his way up through the ranks, holding positions in finance, business travel, corporate services and business-to-business relations before taking over as president in 2013.

Marina Norville, a spokesperson for American Express, told Mashable the company had yet to hear "final word" on the illness that led to Gilligan's death.


According to the company, Ed Gilligan became seriously ill on a flight home from Tokyo and passed away. No other details about the incident were immediately released.

The 55-year-old, life-long company employee was returning from a business trip on a corporate jet.

[sigma6]

Makes sense, he earned his way to the top meritocratically by investing his time in labour... which creates a problem for those who are "bought and paid for"... that would make it much more "difficult" to buy off or bribe someone in that position... no wonder he got "seriously ill" on that plane back from Tokyo...

Swiss financier commits suicide months after colleague killed himself (https://www.rt.com/business/344856-zurich-bankster-senn-suicide/)

The former head of the Switzerland’s biggest insurer has committed a suicide, the company said on Monday. He’s the second top executive of Zurich Insurance to kill himself since August 2013.

"Martin Senn's family has informed us that Martin committed suicide last Friday," the Swiss company said in a statement, adding it was "stunned and deeply shaken" and “out of respect to Martin and to his family, we will not be making any further comment.”

Senn, 59, resigned in December citing business “setbacks in recent months.’’ Swiss police have refused to comment on reports Senn shot himself.

Before he left the company, he was one of the highest paid Chief Executives in the country, earning almost $7.2 million in 2014.

He joined Zurich Insurance in 2006 and became CEO in 2010. He stepped down after the company failed to take over Britain’s RSA Insurance Group for $8.2 billion.

Zurich Insurance also reported major losses in the second half of 2015 after a number of insurance claims related to chemical explosions in Tianjin China in August, which killed nearly 200 people.

In August 2013, Pierre Wauthier, Zurich’s finance director was found dead at his house. Before his death, Wauthier had major disagreements with then Zurich chairman Josef Ackermann. The finance director left a suicide note, saying “to whom it may concern”.

An independent investigation didn’t find a link between Ackermann and other top management in Wauthier’s death, but Ackermann left his post days afterwards.

Second Zurich Insurance exec’s suicide amid renewed interest in 9/11 culprits (http://www.intrepidreport.com/archives/18295)

Posted on June 2, 2016 (http://www.intrepidreport.com/archives/18295) by Wayne Madsen (http://www.intrepidreport.com/archives/author/wayne-madsen/)

Amid renewed public interest in determining the identities of all the culprits behind the 9/11 attacks, comes word that a second executive with one of the World Trade Center’s insurers has died from “suicide.”

Zurich Insurance Group’s former CEO Martin Senn was reported to have shot himself at his vacation home near Davos in Switzerland. No suicide note was found by police. Senn resigned as CEO of the insurance giant last December after the company experienced losses from the still-unexplained large explosions in Tianjin, China, last August.

WMR reported on August 21, 2016: “WMR’s sources from throughout Asia are reporting the same thing: the massive August 12 explosion that completely obliterated the Binhai New Area of the special economic zone city of Tianjin appears to not have been the result of an accidental chemical explosion but from state-sponsored industrial sabotage. The initial explosion was followed by a series of other explosions, said to be from combustible materials stored in the port and warehouse area. Moreover, WMR’s sources report that the nature of the initial shock wave and secondary fireball indicates that the conflagration may have been caused by a tactical nuclear bunker buster bomb hidden in a shipping container.”

Our report continued: “Among the 117 deaths from the explosion were a number of firemen. Some 70 people, most of them firemen, remain missing with a fear that they were vaporized by the series of explosions. Some 800 people were injured in the blast. Damage to the surrounding area was extensive with more than 8,000 new cars from Hyundai, Kia, Volkswagen, Renault, and Toyota left as burnt-out shells from the explosion. Nearby metro train stations, a Japanese department store, and the National Supercomputing Center of Tianjin were damaged by the explosions. Tianjin is 75 miles east of Beijing.”

Senn had spent time as an executive of the Swiss Bank Corporation from 1976 to 1994 in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Tokyo, more than enough time to build up a network of associates with a detailed knowledge of Asia, including China. Senn served as the honorary consul of the Republic of Korea in Zurich.

Zurich Insurance’s payout to settle claims was the second such large expenditure for the firm in a little over a decade. Zurich was one of the insurers of the World Trade Center in New York and it, along with six other insurance companies, paid out $4.56 billion to the complex’s lessee, Larry Silverstein.

Silverstein angled for an even larger payout from the insurance companies but was unsuccessful. It is known that the insurers conducted their own investigations of the culprits behind 9/11, which may have yielded different conclusions than those reached by the U.S. 9/11 Commission.

In August 2013, Zurich Insurance’s then-chief financial officer, Pierre Wauthier, was found hanging at his home in Walchwil, in the canton of Zug, Switzerland, not far from Zurich. Wauthier previously worked for JPMorgan Chase. Police said the hanging “pointed to” a suicide. The insurance company conducted an investigation and determined that Wauthier was not suffering from stress as Swiss police contended.

In January 2014, Tim Dickenson, the communications director for Swiss Re, another World Trade Center insurer, died from unexplained causes in London. Swiss Re was one of the firms that experienced suspicious put options on its stock prior to 9/11 and which went toe-to-toe with World Trade Center lessee Larry Silverstein on settling insurance claims. Swiss Re, like Zurich Insurance, conducted its own investigation of 9/11 and both companies indicated that Silverstein was using the attacks and destruction of the WTC to bilk the insurance companies and make a handsome profit.

Senn’s recent “suicide” once again proves the old axiom that “coincidences don’t kill people but conspiracies do.”
