Police Say No Foul Play In Death of Bitcoin Exchange CEO Autumn Radtke

Posted by timothy on Thursday March 6, 2014 @03:55AM from the sad-news dept.

An anonymous reader writes with this excerpt: "The CEO of a virtual-currency exchange was found dead near her home in Singapore. A police spokesman said Thursday that initial investigations indicated there was no suspicion of 'foul play' in the Feb. 26 death, meaning officers do not suspect murder. The spokesman said police found 28-year-old Autumn Radtke, an American, lying motionless near the apartment tower where she lived. Police have so far classified the death as 'unnatural,' which can mean an accident, misadventure, or suicide." Hat tip to Jamie McCarthy for Slate's thoughtful take on Radtke's death, and the way it's been reported (notably, several sources have speculated that her death was a suicide, with little support).

let's hope current events drive even more bankers of large banks to suicide or stressed induced cardiovascular failure, they're parasites on society who steal wealth, create wars, and put supposedly democratic governments in their pockets.
