Ep. 2 | The Banker Suicides | He hung himself with the dogs leash | New York Post @nypost

New York Post William S. Broeksmit committed suicide by hanging on Jan. 26, 2014. He was found dead at his London home, near documents related to The Deutsche Bank Trust Company of America, the board he served on at the time of his death. William's stepson, Val Broeksmit, discovered his stepfather's body and has called into question his stepfather's suicide. William Broeksmit was the highest-ranking executive on Wall Street to take his own life in the aftermath of the financial crisis. He oversaw more than $60 trillion in derivatives on the bank's books, which is larger than the GDP of all of Europe. It is significant that Broeksmit's reputation on the Street was rock solid; he was known internally as a whistleblower, and crossing Broeksmit's desk on a daily basis during this period were memos dealing with the housing bubble crashing, Libor rigging, and the bank's stress test failure. Produced by Steven Greenstreet and Heather Hauswirth as part of Michael Gray's exclusive investigation.

From 'Why are so many bankers committing suicide?' - nypost.com/article/why-are-so-many-bankers-committing-suicide

In January 2014, the body of William Broeksmit, 58, a high-ranking Deutsche Bank executive, was found hanging in his London flat from a dog leash tied to the top of a door.

Financial papers were strewn about, and on a dog bed near the body were a number of notes to family and friends. One was addressed to Deutsche Bank CEO Anshu Jain, with an apology. But that note — never publicly revealed until now — offered no clue as to the reason he was sorry.

Broeksmit’s high-ranking colleague at Deutche was Michele Faissola, who arrived on the gruesome scene after Broeksmit’s wife told his stepson, Val Broeksmit, to phone him. He arrived minutes later, and began going through the bank papers and read the suicide notes.

“He did go to my father’s computer which was, at the time, I thought a little weird,” said Val Broeksmit.

There is no evidence Faissola was involved in any misconduct related to Broeksmit’s death, but the stepson said he still wonders what, if anything, Faissola was searching for. Faissola declined comment.

In emails provided to The Post by his stepson Val, Broeksmit had just messaged friends about his excitement to go on a ski vacation scheduled for a week later.

Although a report from Broeksmit’s clinical psychologist revealed that Broeksmit was “very anxious about authorities investigating areas of the bank at which he worked,” his depression over the Libor investigation the year before seemed to have lifted, according to a doctor who’d given him a clean bill of health a month before his death, said his stepson. Val found other unsettling facts while going over his father’s personal papers and emails.

“Yes he killed himself,” Val Broeksmit told The Post. “But there’s a question: Could it be suicide by extortion, could it be suicide by pressure or saying if you don’t do this, we’re going to do this? There’s a couple suspicions I have.”

In early 2013, Jain planned to make Broeksmit chief risk officer for the entire bank. He was an expert in the esoteric field of derivatives, of which Deutsche had roughly $60 trillion worth on its books. But German banking regulators nixed the appointment because they said he lacked the requisite experience.

Broeksmit left the bank in June, but a few months later took a position in New York as a director of Deutsche Bank Trust Company of America, the US arm of the German banking giant. It was his reward for his long service after butting heads with German banking authorities.

DBTCA was the former Banker’s Trust, which Deutsche bought in 1998. It’s the custodial arm for wealthy clients to park money for trust funds and other long-term investing.

Deutsche Bank’s asset and wealth management unit was overseen by Michele Faissola, who along with Broeksmit reported directly to CEO Jain. But unlike most bank directors, Broeksmit’s natural curiosity and work ethic didn’t permit him to just turn up for a monthly meeting and cash a paycheck. He began to dig in, looking at the operation.

“[My father] didn’t just want to show up,” said Val Broeksmit.

A month before his death, William Broeksmit wrote — in what his son says shows his anger — to fellow executives, asking why he should take the lead on the sticky matter of the upcoming Federal Reserve-mandated stress test for the bank.

Inside Yahya Sinwar’s bunker beneath Gaza: UN food rations, millions in cash, and his own shower

New York Post 2024-10-21 | Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar was prepared to hide out the war in his secret bunker beneath Gaza flushed with UN food rations, thousands in cash, cologne and his own shower, Israeli officials say.

Footage from the Israeli military gives a peek into how the Oct. 7 mastermind spent his days in Khan Younis during the first half of the war — before he was forced to flee to Rafah, where he was killed last Thursday.

The resurfaced video from February depicts a bright and cozy living quarters for Sinwar, 61, and his guards, with a fully stocked kitchen that Israeli Defense Forces officials said would help the terrorists ride out the war decimating Gaza above ground.

Trump works fry cooker at McDonald’s — and MAGA faithful line up to order

New York Post 2024-10-21 | Donald Trump is really cooking in the race for president.

Wearing an apron and a red tie, the former president served up some fries and political shade against his rival during a behind-the-counter stint at McDonald’s Sunday, which drew a monster crowd to the Feasterville-Trevose, Pa. fast food restaurant.

McDonald’s has long been one of Trump’s favorite chains, but his visit to the Golden Arches Sunday doubled as an effort to re-up his doubts over Vice President Kamala Harris’ claims that she worked there in the 1980s.

Elon Musk hands out second $1 million prize in voter registration giveaway

New York Post 2024-10-21 | Billionaire Elon Musk made a wry joke about “getting shot” for his plan to give away million-dollar checks to swing state voters in support of former President Donald Trump’s election campaign Sunday – just after handing out his second prize so far in Pennsylvania.

“I hope I live tonight,” Musk joked at the Roxian Theatre in McKees Rocks, just outside of Pittsburgh. “Based on some of the things I’m getting, I might not. It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye or an ear.”

“Hopefully I don’t get shot,” Musk added.

He said he was “definitely upgrading my security” and acetiously said he is going to roll out an “inflatable” body double.

Musk, who is the richest person on Earth, with a net worth of more than $240 billion, has pledged to hand out $1 million to a random swing state voter who has signed a petition for his SuperPac every day until the presidential election on Nov. 5 — meaning there are 16 lucky Americans who will cash in big.

Transplant donor wakes up on operating table as doctors prepare to remove his heart

New York Post 2024-10-20 | A nightmare scenario played out at a Kentucky hospital as a transplant donor woke up on the operating table just as doctors were preparing to remove his heart, according to witnesses.

Thomas T.J. Hoover was taken to Baptist Health Richmond Hospital in Kentucky in October 2021 after overdosing on drugs. Doctors declared him brain-dead and proceeded to conduct tests to see whether his organs were worth harvesting, NPR reported.

Natasha Miller was one of the people tasked with preserving organs at Baptist Health Richmond Hospital that day. She told the publication that when nurses wheeled Hoover, 36, into the room, he seemed still very much alive.

New York Post 2024-10-20 | WWE legend known as The Undertaker cut his own election promo in a video posted to social media on Friday after pro wrestling star Dave Bautista, known as Bautista, took shots at former President Donald Trump earlier in the week.

The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Callaway, was seen on a video next to his former WWE colleague Kane, the current mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, whose real name is Glenn Jacobs, and Trump and addressed potential voters about their options come Election Day.

“All right everyone. Nov. 5 – ElectionMania. The choice is yours. You can go with President Trump, Kane and The Undertaker or you can take Kamala Harris, Dave Bautista and Tim Walz. Choose wisely – the nation depends on it,” Callaway said in a TikTok video.

“And that should be an easy choice,” Trump added.

New York Post 2024-10-20 | Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar’s wife was reportedly spotted fleeing into a Gaza tunnel with a $32,000 Birkin bag hours before the Oct. 7 massacre, Israeli officials claimed.

“While Gaza residents have no money for food, we see many examples of Yahya Sinwar and his wife’s special love for money,” IDF Spokesperson Avichay Adraee wrote on X, alongside a screenshot of the woman holding what appeared to be a pricey black leather purse.

Elon Musk awards random petition signer $1M check, vows to do so every day until election

New York Post 2024-10-20 | Elon Musk awarded a swing-state resident a million-dollar check for signing his petition to protect freedom of speech and the right to bear arms at a rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Saturday night.

Musk handed an over-sized million dollar check to John Dreher, who Musk said was randomly selected to receive the jaw-dropping sum.

“So, I have a surprise for you…” the billionaire teased the enraptured crowd shortly before calling Dreher up to the stage to receive his prize.

“We’re going to be awarding a million dollars randomly to people who have signed the petition every day from now until the election,” Musk vowed to thunderous applause from the crowd.

The SpaceX CEO had previously promised his super PAC, which he established to support former President Donald Trump this election cycle, would pay $100 to Pennsylvania voters who signed his petition.

“If you’re a registered Pennsylvania voter, you & whoever referred you will now get $100 for signing our petition in support of free speech & right to bear arms. Earn money for supporting something you already believe in! Offer valid until midnight on Monday,” Musk posted on X Thursday.

Chaotic footage shows suspected fraudsters reverse into car, fake injuries before noticing dashcam

New York Post 2024-10-20 | Chaotic dashcam video captured the moment suspected insurance fraudsters crashed into a motorist and seemingly faked their injuries before noticing a dashcam on the Belt Parkway in Queens.

Ashpia Natasha was driving on the three-lane parkway at 11 a.m. on Wednesday when a silver Honda Accord merged from the center lane into the left cutting her off, before the erratic driver slammed on his brakes, according to a video of the crash posted to TikTok.

Natasha’s quick reaction saved her from crashing into the Honda.

The unpredictable operator turns on the hazards before stomping on the gas and flooring the car into Natasha’s front bumper.

Mom’s 2 kids stuck upside down on broken ride for over 15 minutes #shorts

New York Post 2024-10-19 | A mother captured the terrifying moment her children were stuck upside down on a carnival ride at the Arkansas State Fair on Saturday, October 12.

Allyson Metzger captured this video of her children, ages 8 and 11, hanging upside down while riding the X-Drive. Metzger’s children can be seen in the upper left-hand corner of the video.

Metzger told Storyful it took about 15 minutes for crews to get her kids off the ride.

According to local news outlet KATV – who cited Scooter Korek, an employee of North American Midway Entertainment – a technical fault led to the ride malfunction.

North American Midway Entertainment, according to the news outlet, is “responsible for all the rides and takes the show on the road to fairgoers all over the United States.”

Korek told the outlet he is confident in the safety of the rides, explaining the rides go through multiple levels of inspections.

In a post to Facebook, Metzger posted a photo of a complaint she filed regarding the ride.

NJ hunter kills 770-pound black bear, setting state record: Smartest animal Ive chased

New York Post 2024-10-19 | A New Jersey bow hunter just set a state record by killing a 770-pound black bear — a beast he’d been eyeing over the past two bear hunts.

Brian Melvin, 39, first spotted the bear three years ago during a hunting session and has been tracking it during his past two bear hunts, knocking on doors and getting permission to check land the bear might’ve traveled through.

“I wasn’t really chasing records … it was an incredible honor to have chased him because he was the smartest animal I had ever chased,” Melvin, who struck the bear Tuesday morning in Kinnelon using a compound bow, told The Post Friday.

New York Post 2024-10-19 | There’s long been speculation of underground chambers below the monument known as the Khaznah, or the Treasury, in the ancient city of Petra, Jordan — and now it’s been confirmed.

Archaeologists recently discovered a tomb with at least 12 human skeletons and artifacts, estimated to be at least 2,000 years old, CNN reported.

The elaborate monument, carved into pink sandstone cliffs, has been featured in several movies — it’s most well-known as the site of the Holy Grail in the 1989 film “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.”

Kamala Harris refuses to say what she’d have done differently than Biden — citing VP ‘tradition’

New York Post 2024-10-18 | Vice President Kamala Harris refused to answer Friday when asked for at least the fourth time what she would have done differently than President Biden.

Harris, 59, cited a nebulous “tradition” of vice presidents not being “critical” of their bosses when queried by NBC News reporter Peter Alexander during a campaign swing through Michigan.

“I mean to be very candid with you – you, even including Mike Pence – um – vice presidents are not critical of their presidents,” Harris began.

Communist Cuba shuts down schools, state-owned workplaces as huge blackout leaves millions in dark

New York Post 2024-10-18 | A massive outage left millions of Cubans without power and prompted the government Friday to implement emergency measures to slash demand, including suspending classes, shutting down some state-owned workplaces and canceling non-essential services.

Cuban officials said that the blackout, which started late Thursday, saw 1.64 gigawatts go offline during peak hours in the early evening, about half the total demand at the time.

“The situation has worsened in recent days,” Prime Minister Manuel Marrero said in a special address on national television in the early hours of Friday.

Bodycam footage shows suspect try to light bomb as he’s chased by police on Washington highway

New York Post 2024-10-18 | A Washington state man strung out on fentanyl tried to detonate a homemade bomb as he was surrounded by police following a highway pursuit, shocking bodycam footage shows.

The Bellevue Police Department and Washington State troopers say they were chasing a stolen black Mercedes sedan on Interstate 90 when the driver, identified as 42-year-old Sokphana Soeung, jumped out and fled on foot after police stopped him with a so-called PIT maneuver.

Footage released by Bellevue cops shows an officer sprinting towards the suspect in the middle of the road with several colleagues in pursuit.

As the officers close in, the suspect can be seen with a lighter in one hand and an improvised explosive made from a tennis ball in the other. Before Soeung could light the fuse, police say, he was tackled by a gang of seven cops.

“The suspect threw an IED or some sort of explosive,” one of the officers says as they place Soeung in handcuffs.

New York Post 2024-10-18 | Donald Trump served up a “Turkey” roast to Eric Adams at the Al Smith Dinner — and the mayor is gobbling it up.

The former president peppered the star-studded crowd at Thursday’s swanky white-tie event with jokes and gripes, including a zinger aimed at both Adams’ plant-based diet and alleged taste for Turkish graft.

“I’ve never met a person who’s a vegan who liked Turkey so much,” Trump said about Adams, who was seated nearby.

Yahya Sinwar weakly threw piece of wood at Israeli drone just moments before he was killed #shorts

New York Post 2024-10-18 | An Israeli drone captured Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar’s last minutes alive — as the Oct. 7 mastermind tossed a piece of wood in a futile attempt to take out the device before he was killed, officials said. NY Post writer Brian Faas shares this story.

Shocking footage shows the moment a drone is deployed to check a building in Rafah that a group of IDF soldiers hit on Thursday.

An injured Sinwar, who had his face covered and appeared be missing his right hand, could be seen sitting alone on a chair in the destroyed building, with the IDF soldiers unaware that they were seeing the very man they had been hunting since he ordered the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on the Jewish state.

“You know, this event has been referred to as the Catholic Met Gala. Twenty-two percent of Americans identify as Catholic. Catholics will be a key demographic in every battleground state. I’m sorry, why is Vice President Harris not here?” the jokester said as he emceed the charity dinner.

Bill Clinton leaves NC audience befuddled with bizarre Trump ‘impression’

New York Post 2024-10-18 | Former President Bill Clinton busted out a bizarre and confusing impression of Donald Trump on Thursday, during which he suggested that the GOP nominee might send him to “supermax” prison for life.

Clinton, 78, made no real attempt at capturing Trump’s distinctive voice or mannerisms when he spoke as the 45th president during a North Carolina rally with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz — with the intention of conveying that he might be considered by Trump to be “the danger within.”

“When you sign up, the oath says you promise to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” Clinton told the crowd.

Donald Trump obliterates Kamala Harris, Biden, de Blasio in scorching Al Smith dinner roast

New York Post 2024-10-18 | No one was safe from former President Donald Trump’s zingers Thursday night at the Al Smith Dinner — as he panned Vice President Kamala Harris for skipping the event, roasted New York City Mayor Eric Adams and dragged top Democrats in the rowdy audience.

Trump, 78, blasted Harris for being the first presidential candidate to decline the invitation to the Manhattan event, which raises funds for Catholic charities supporting children, since former Vice President Walter Mondale in 1984.

“I guess you should have told her the funds were going to bail out the looters and rioters in Minneapolis and she would have been here guaranteed,” Trump needled.
