Yet Another Banker Suicide

From Lewis Dean's 7-9-14 International Business Times article entitled "JP Morgan Director Julian Knott Killed Wife with Shotgun in Murder-Suicide":

"JP Morgan executive director Julian Knott blasted his wife Alita to death with a shotgun before turning the gun on himself. 

"The 45-year-old, who worked for the investment bank in London until July 2010, shot his 47-year-old wife multiple times before committing suicide with the same weapon.

"The couple met in London, with Alita opening nursery Quayside Tots Playgroup in Southwick, West Sussex, before they moved to the United States.

"She remained the playgroup's care provider until at least February 2013, according to the nursery's most recent Ofsted report.

"Julian moved to the United States from London in 2010 and was working at JP Morgan's Global Network Operations Center in Whippany, New Jersey, at the time of the tragedy."

According to Dean, this is the eighth banker suicide during the past year; however, according to a related article (which can be found by clicking HERE), it's actually the fifteenth.
