Trump Whistleblower Dead: He Turned Over Hundreds of Deutsche Bank Emails to the FBI... Cause of Death: Unknown... Name: Valentin Broeksmit...

After the Suicide of His Father (a Deutsche Bank Executive), Valentin Broeksmit Gained access to His Emails.

Deutsche Bank whistleblower linked to Trump probe found dead.

Valentin Broeksmit supplied investigators with hundreds of documents about Trump's relationship with Deutsche Bank. 

Broeksmit's father was an executive at Deutsche Bank before taking his own life. Following his father's death, Broeksmit acquired access to father's email account, which contained hundreds of confidential bank documents, according to The New York Times. Broeksmit reportedly supplied these documents to federal investigators as well as journalists who sought to further understand the connections between Trump and Deutsche Bank, one of the former president's biggest lenders. Broeksmit's documents reportedly gave investigators access to materials "only people within the inner circle of Deutsche would ever see."

BOOK: 

Deutsche Bank Deaths—Spate of Suicides Involving Employees in Recent Years. 

The death of a whistleblower who worked with federal authorities investigating Deutsche Bank has once again brought into focus the spate of suicide deaths linked to the financial institution.

Valentin Broeksmit, 45, was pronounced dead Monday morning 

after his body was found on the Woodrow Wilson High school 

campus off the 4500 block of Multnomah Street in Los Angeles.

In 2019, Broeksmit was reported to have handed over hundreds 

of documents to the FBI while they were investigating ties 

between Deutsche Bank and former president Donald Trump.

After his father's death, Broeksmit gained access to his father's email account and found hundreds of files related to the bank, including board meeting minutes, financial plans, spreadsheets and password-protected presentations, the newspaper reported.

Federal and state authorities were scrutinizing allegations of criminal misconduct and the bank's long relationship with former President Donald Trump, the newspaper reported.

According to The Times, Broeksmit supplied the documents to journalists and others, including Fusion GPS, the research firm linked to The Steele dossier about Trump, and investigators with the FBI's New York office.

No foul play suspected in death of federal informant Valentin Broeksmit, LAPD says.


Authorities Friday said no foul play is suspected in the death of Valentin Broeksmit, a man believed to have worked with federal authorities to investigate the activities of Deutsche Bank and its ties with former President Donald Trump.
A cleaning crew found Broeksmit, 45, self-described as a "comically terrible spy," around 6:40 a.m Monday on the Woodrow Wilson High school campus in El Sereno. 
Officials have yet to release a cause of death pending an autopsy.  
Officers say they responded to the campus on a "death investigation" call. School police said there was no video footage of Broeksmit arriving at the campus and they were unsure how long he'd been there.
"Upon arrival, the officers were directed by school staff to the location of the man, who was later identified as Valentin Broeksmit," police said in a statement released on Friday.

LAPD: On April 25, 2022, around 7:00 a.m., Los Angeles Police Department Hollenbeck Area police officers responded to a radio call of a “Death Investigation,” at a high school in the 4500 block of Multnomah Street. Upon arrival, the officers were directed by school staff to the location of the man, who was later identified as Valentin Broeksmit. Broeksmit was found lying on the ground in a courtyard of the school. Los Angeles City Fire Department Paramedics, who had also responded to the location, attempted to render medical aid; however, Broeksmit did not respond to those attempts and was pronounced deceased at scene.

At the time of the officer’s investigation, there did not appear to be any indication of trauma to Broeksmit’s body and his remains were released to the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office. Detectives from the LAPD’s Central Bureau Homicide (CBH) were notified of the officer’s investigation. Detectives responded to conduct a follow-up investigation and interview potential witnesses. This investigation is still on-going; however, no foul play is suspected at this time and based on the investigation, it appeared that Broeksmit was alone on the grounds of the school most of the weekend preceding his death.

The manner of Broeksmit’s death is pending a review of the investigation, along with the Coroner’s examination and toxicology results.

I posted on Facebook:
The Number One Cause of Death by Gunshot is Suicide. That's A Blessing as It Reduces the Number of "Gun Nuts" Alive.

KD Replied: Not a very nice thing to say Greg! You may want to rethink this post or remove it.

BAH Said: Not all gun owners are nuts. Moving to Idaho I discovered most here own them as there is hunting season here. I now own one for the purpose of going to a range to do target shooting. A common sport here and it is fun. We have very little gun crime here. And, I am not a nut.


I Replied: Go right ahead... Risk your life and your families lives... In 2017, 39,773 people died from gun-related injuries in the U.S., according to the CDC. Though they tend to get less attention than gun-related murders, suicides have long accounted for the majority of U.S. gun deaths. https://www.pewresearch.org/.../what-the-data-says-about.../


MD Said: According to your rationale, might as well stop driving a car too
Approximately 1.35 million people die in road crashes each year; on average 3,700 people lose their lives every day on the roads. An additional 20-50 million suffer non-fatal injuries, often resulting in long-term disabilities.

I Replied: I don't own a car... I Only leave the house about once every three months and I Use Uber or Lyft... However... Cars provide a useful service... Guns Do Not. Absolutely useless... I truly Believe That the desire to Own Guns is a Genetic Trait. If Your Grandfather Owned Guns and your Father Owned Guns... it's Likely that You and Your Children will Own Guns... There is a "Gun Nut" Gene... and the Human Race would be better off when That Gene Goes Extinct... Did You Notice that Automobile Exhaust is a Major Cause of Climate Change? I have Often Ridden the City Bus to and From Work... It's Great... Especially in Eureka... I walked three City blocks to the Stop, Got On and the Bus Driver woke me up when we got to work... Then On the Ride Home I Chatted with a Pretty Girl that Worked at Costco... You Can't Meet Women if You Drive by Yourself in a Car...

JJ Said: Yeah. That doesn’t work on BART.

I Replied: Many Kind Services like the Bus Driver Watching out for me Fail IN THE CITY... That's The Beauty of Living in Small Town USA. I FLED San Jose in the Late 1990s and Moved to CHICO... and Rode My Bike Everywhere... then in 2001 Went to Humboldt State University in Arcata... It's almost Impossible to Believe that the "Real World" Exists when Living behind the Redwood Curtain... I see on TV That Those People Over There are Behaving Crazy and their Lives Suck... but then I Change the Channel...  

JJ Said: Ya know. This has been debated. Argued. Yelled. Screamed. Legislated.
All ineffectively.
Two reasons.
1. Criminals do not follow any laws.
2. Congress does not want to piss off donors.
Stop and search laws were considered unlegal after implementing due to the overzealous actions of police.
Since this will always occur with military style police departments, it will prove to be ineffective continually unless other legislation is used to describe when and where to use stop and search techniques. You think since we have an all Democratic Congress right now that this would be possible but in fact most elected officials are so incompetent they can’t see through their own fucking glasses to get things done correctly. Actually writing legislature such that in very high crime cities are high crime parts of cities within certain boundaries, stop and search techniques are allowed, and only for the purpose of capturing weapons. Violators are not arrested their weapons are just taken away and they are put on a list that says who they are and what was taken from them. If they get caught a week later with another weapon then you can deal with them legally. But the law can’t just give police carte blanche to stop and search any car anytime anywhere if it’s not in one of the exceptionally high weapon crime areas.
Additional legislation would also be required to stop people with mental problems, histories, and could be even taking a step further that before you become a gun owner, you have to have a psychological profile done. Of course all these open up more and more lawsuits and so it would have to be vetted properly and conducted properly and taking into account the persons history, social media etc.
it also help if there was a database that showed what people were considered irresponsible, racist, volatile and these people are not allowed to have a gun. They would say it’s a violation of their constitutional rights but in fact, if Congress looked at the constitution correctly, they would understand that the purpose of the second amendment was to provide for a quick militia to be available if necessary. It wasn’t intended to let mentally ill criminals or violent people have a gun so they can use it inappropriately. Making that distinction of intent from the constitution is an important part of providing new laws that serve the times that we’re in. But the problem again is that our Congress is too ignorant to actually decipher these realities and propose and pass adequate legislature that takes into account the intent of the militia, which really no longer applies in 2021, and defers gun ownership to people who it is inappropriate for them to have.


The Faces of The Victims... Dead Because Kyle Rittenhouse brought a Gun across state lines to a Protest march... INSANE!

Why was it possible to outlaw the Thompson Machine Gun but these days we can't outlaw Assault Rifles?  In 1934 we outlawed Machine guns because of Public Outrage about Chicago Gangland Murders like The St. Valentine Day Massacre.
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Firearms_Act


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_II_weapons Title II of the Gun Control Act of 1968 is a revision of the National Firearms Act of 1934, and pertains to machine guns, short or "sawed-off" shotguns and rifles, and so-called "destructive devices" (including grenades, mortars, rocket launchers, large projectiles, and other heavy ordnance). Acquisition of these weapons is subject to prior approval of the Attorney General, and federal registration is required for possession. Generally, a $200 tax is imposed upon each transfer or making of any Title II weapon.



Also Murdered by Gunshot: President McKinley, President Lincoln, Tupac, The Notorious B.I.G.,  Terry Kath, Kurt Cobain and Thousands of Unknown American Citizens...
We have Gangland Murders Today in Chicago, Baltimore, Washington DC and other Cities...


#NeverAgain



We Outlawed Machine Guns in 1934... Why NOT Outlaw Assault Rifles?. #NeverAgain - We could end the Killing if we just Collected all the GUNS and Melted them... It would be a Great Source of Free American Metal... Handy for Building Cars OR Washing Machines!

and now for something completely different!

 Sandy Erickson Said: I've noticed that people often look at old pictures from past decades, like the 70's and 80's, and they laugh at the way people look in those pictures and make comments like, "I can't believe we wore our hair like that!" or "I can't believe we wore those clothes!" I was a teenager in the 80's, so I was old enough that I clearly remember when people wore those clothes and hairstyles - and everyone looked great! If you watch a movie from the 80's, you'll see what I mean. Same with the 70's. People love to make jokes about 70's fashion, but people looked great in the 70's when they wore those fashions! Watch movies from the 70's and 80's, and you'll see what I mean. Those fashions may look dated now, but people looked gorgeous in those fashions back then! I remember some of my outfits from the 80's, and they were FABULOUS! And I appreciate the fact that straight hair is in style now because it was extremely time-consuming to get 80's hair out of my naturally straight, fine hair....but I spent hours getting my hair to hold a curl in the 80's, and it didn't look stupid, it looked great! And I've always loved the fashions of the 70's. I wore bell bottoms and vintage 70's dresses in the 90's, and it looked great! Some day people will look at pictures from the 20-teens and 2020's, and they'll laugh and wonder how we thought we looked good in the ridiculous hairstyles and clothes that we wore. For some reason, people have a tendency to forget that things don't become stylish because they're ugly, they become stylish because they're beautiful! And just because new things come along and become stylish, that doesn't make the old styles any less beautiful! Watch some movies from the 70's and 80's - or better yet, watch some music videos from the 80's, and you'll see that people looked gorgeous in those clothes and hairstyles!

VK Replied: I'll admit I do think the 80s has a very distinguished hairstyle with people wearing these large owl glasses, but I've noticed that fashion keeps getting recycled. Like about 10+ years ago bell bottoms were in again and now the high waisted pants and crop tops are back in. I'm personally not a fan of the high waisted stuff with crop tops because I hate having anything right around my waist. Now tie dye is also super in again too. LOL

SE Replied: Yeah, everything comes back in style eventually...but I've noticed that certain things never really go out of style. Like, in one of my mid-century groups, someone shared a photo of some young women in the 60's wearing plaid miniskirts, and I had skirts exactly like that in the 80's, 90's, and I even have one now! It's a look which never went out of style, but when you see a picture from the 60's, the picture looks dated, but people actually still wear skirts like that and probably always will.

RB Replied: after WWII the navy pants were popular that was the first big bells. Then Levi made the big bell. Later in the 70s the flared came out. The same but it was tight above the knee and then flared out to the shoe but not as big as a bell. 

RB Replied: In the disco days I was a young adult in my 20s. I wore one night white pants with platform shoes, colorful silk shirt, a white jacket and a scarf with a ring. And sported an Afro. Before that in the sixtys as a kid we wore nothing but old worn out Levi’s flared or big bell with leather and such patches . And a white tee shirt with a Derby Jacket and a beanie oh and cause we were Italian a gold luck horn necklace. Lol oh and desert boots.

and Then I Said: I Remember that in 1969 my mother sewed me a NEHRU Collared Shirt with Bell Sleeves... and I Wore a Real Bell Around my Neck... I Think it was Called "Mod" - Like the Fashion of London during the Beatle Years... I also made my own Tie Dyed T-Shirts Using RIT DYE and Rubber Bands... Remember That The "Rainbow Spiral Design of Tie Dye T-Shirts HAD NOT BEEN INVENTED YET. RIT DYE Required Boiling Water and Salt... See This Example:

Jerry in the Middle in a Classic Sixties Tie Dye T-Shirt - made with rubber bands and RIT DYE - Boiling in Salty Water
