New York State Police are investigating the possible suicide of Samuel Israel III, the former chief executive of defunct hedge-fund firm Bayou Management LLC who was supposed to begin serving a 20-year prison term on Monday, an investigator said Tuesday.
A vehicle belonging to Mr. Israel -- the architect of one of Wall Street's highest-profile scams of recent years -- was found abandoned near the towering Bear Mountain Bridge over the Hudson River in New York state. The words "suicide is painless" were written in the dust on the hood.
...More here. I once heard that Mike Altman, who wrote 'Suicide is Painless,' was the only member of the MASH crew to make any money off the movie.
