David Kellermann, the acting CFO of Freddie Mac who was found dead in his home this morning, hanged himself, according to police.

Kellermann reportedly hired a security firm to stand watch outside his home after reporters turned up at his front door to ask about his bonus. Hope you're happy, Charles Grassley. [NYT, WSJ]
