37. Marty Lackner, in his 40s, wife, 3 kids, was found dead

Marty left No Note!

His friends and I conversed, after Marty's passing. Neither they nor I believe the suicide meme.

The WSJ, NYT and even Minnesota Star Tribune all stated the facts of Marty's case, was not a news worthy story.

How is it not newsworthy? Marty was part of billions in fraud and his brother James was the federal prosecutor in charge of the Division, that presided over Marty's case.

Even without the purported suicide the correlation begs a ton of questions.

Marty's brother is James Lackner and James was head of the Minnesota US Attorney's office Criminal Division that presided over the Tom Petters Pinzi case.

Minnesota never should have been allowed to prosecute the Petters Pinzi case.

The only papers that publish the Lackner dynamics were Public Broadcasting.

Here's the details from MN Public Radio in its published story "What did the money man know"

A TRAGIC TURN

The Bell case took a tragic turn in June with revelations that a Bell associate named Martin Lackner had committed suicide. Sources say Lackner, 48, had helped bring investors to Lancelot earlier in the fund’s genesis. There’s no record he was charged with any crime. His wife, Diana, and three children survived him.

Martin Lackner is also the brother of Jim Lackner, an assistant U.S. attorney in the Minneapolis office. Jim Lackner declined comment. A spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office said Jim Lackner never worked on the Petters or Bell cases. When the U.S. attorney’s office learned about Martin Lackner and his relationship to Jim, it notified defense attorneys for both Petters and Bell, he said.
