BOMBSHELL: Dead JPM bankers "Knew each other and had uncovered something"

Wednesday we reported that another JP Morgan banker has been found dead, as the latest banker to meet a sudden and untimely demise is Ryan Henry Crane, the Executive Director in JPMorgan's Global Equities Group.
Today, Steve Quayle's banker source "V", who predicted that a wave of banker hits was imminent when the very first bankers began dropping last week, has dropped a bombshell regarding the death of Ryan Henry Crane.
V states that Crane oversaw all of the trade platforms and worked closely with Gabriel Magee of JPM's London desk (who fell 32 stories off the JPM London roof moments after texting his g/f he would be home shortly), and that the pair had access to the exact same info.
V concludes Crane & Magee: "Knew each other and had uncovered something".
V's update on the latest JPMorgan banker to turn up dead is below:

Re: Economy (4.00 / 3)

This much is fact:

JP Morgan Banker Ryan Crane Found Dead at Home - Yahoo News UK

A second JP Morgan employee has been found weeks after one fell from the bank's London headquarters.
Ryan Crane, 37, who worked at the bank's New York office for 14 years as executive director of a stock-trading team, died on 3 February at his Stamford, Connecticut home.
News of the fatality was broken on the website of Leo P. Gallagher & Son Funeral Home in Greenwich, Connecticut.
A toxicology in about six weeks' time will reveal the cause of Crane's death, news of which was met with shock.

Steve Quayle however is a conspiracy theorist of the nuttiest kind, just look here or here. I wouldn't trust anything he says.

Re: Economy (none / 0)

i couldn't agree more...

it's a bit of a pattern lately, in the middle of a siteful of loony (often god-fearin', goldbuggin') CT chaff, there is hidden a smidgeon of truth.

similar to the site i found the story about the us navy staff suing for the radiation exposure about a month ago.

batshit they be, but it doesn't mean they're always wrong.

like a coastline full of plastic with the occasional lucky find.

back to beachcombing! got to try out my new bullshit meter, newly calibrated with updated firmware every mediated day.

That "smidgeon of truth" can be found elsewhere. We don't need to link to the crazies.

Re: Economy (none / 1)

As afew said, if you want truth, there are better ways to uncover it than by trying to dig out it from the bottom of a sewage pit. The best method to sell loony stuff is to build it on a smidgeon of truth and then mis-interpret it beyond recognition. Steve Quayle did it by adding apparent lies (put into the mouth of an alleged anonymous source) about knowledge of a grand plot, a motive, and connections between the separate incidents. I note however that you don't have to invent anything, it's enough to channel the attention of an uncritical audience with speculation, false analogies, emotional appeals and selective consideration of evidence. It1s the same as in politics: pub wisdom may conclude that "politicians always lie", but the actual main weapon of politicians is called "spin", and "politicians always lie" people fall for it in droves by assuming that a kernel of truth makes it worth to listen to the guy.

Re: Economy (none / 0)

i appreciate what both of you are saying, and am not arguing to the contrary.

i do think that people here are smart enough to see how 99% of what assclown sites is BS.

as regards a true story, isn't the message more important than the messenger?

i think if these sites never got anything right (for the wrong reasons), they would have been laughed right off the net by now. i find it amusing to fish sometimes in those ponds, and if i wish to find out if there's a kernel of truth in there sometimes, i want to run it by the most rigorous group of readers i know.

not my intention to spoil ET by posting links that offend your intelligence, so if that is the case i will stop.

or go search for the same story from better sources.

even if i were interested in touting these sites i sure wouldn't do it here. good stories come from bad people sometimes, i find the contrast interesting.

hint taken though... there be cooties!

And what would be the message?
