Bernard Madoff's son found hanged in New York

The Hammer

It appears to be a suicide.

from BBC:

Quote:

One of convicted US fraudster Bernard Madoff's sons has committed suicide in his New York apartment, a family lawyer has said.

Mark Madoff, 46, was found hanged in Manhattan on the second anniversary of his father's arrest.

Mark Madoff and his brother Andrew were both being investigated in the case but have not been charged.

Bernard Madoff admitted last year defrauding thousands of investors through a $65bn (�41bn) Ponzi scheme.

I hope is wasn't revenge because it's not his fault that his father is a scumbag.
