It will be interesting to see if this 'intense investigation' actually reveals anything of substance.



It might have been something inadvertent, or a suicide. There was a suicide of another prominent financier in London just two days earlier there as well. Perhaps it is a contagion.



Or just more collateral damage from the financialized, predatory economic environment I like to call The Hunger Games.



And may the odds be ever in your favor.



Jamie Dimon’s so-called “tempest in a teapot” in the London Whale matter morphed into $6.2 billion in bank depositor losses, $1 billion in fines to JPMorgan, 300 pages of scandalous details by the U.S. Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations that called into question JPMorgan’s risk controls and the integrity of upper management, and, finally, resulted in criminal charges against two of the men involved. The criminal cases have yet to go to trial.

According to numerous sources close to the investigation of Gabriel Magee’s death, almost nothing thus far reported about his death has been accurate. This appears to stem from an initial poorly worded press release issued by the Metropolitan Police in London which may have been a result of bad communications between it and JPMorgan or something more deliberate on someone’s part.
