Surviving Capitalism (Not) : Strange Deaths of JPMorgan Workers Continue

We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Strange Deaths of JPMorgan Workers Continue

Click here to access article by Pam Martens and Russ Martens from Wall Street on Parade. ("Ms. Martens is a former Wall Street veteran with a background in journalism. Mr. Martens' career spans four decades in printing and publishing management.")

I have been following their post for several years and have been impressed with their diligence in investigating Wall Street crimes such as JPMorgan’s London Whale trades. In addition they have been posting articles about the high number of suspicious deaths of people working in the banking industry, especially JP Morgan Chase banks which have been facing a number of lawsuits. Just last year they posted an article entitled "Wall Street Banker Deaths Continue; Where Are the Serious Investigations?".

Last Thursday, September 22, 2016, the body of Ann Korkki, a Senior Administrative Assistant in the Wealth Management division of JPMorgan Chase in Denver, Colorado was found with the body of her sister, Robin Korkki, inside their luxury vacation villa at the Maia Resort on Seychelles, an island in the Indian Ocean off the East African coast. Ann Korkki was 37; her sister Robin was 42.

According to the local Seychelles newspaper, there was no sign of violence on the bodies of the women who were on a one week vacation at the resort.
