Madoff's son dead in apparent suicide
link
(NEWSER) The 46-year-old son of Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff has been found hanging in an apparent suicide in his SoHo apartment, reports the New York Post. Mark Madoff, who sources recently told the Wall Street Journal was left "unalterably bitter" by his father's crimes, hadn't faced criminal charges to date, but was sued this week along with brother Andrew by the trustee tasked with recovering assets for the elder Madoff's scheme. He was found this morning by his father-in-law; sources say there was no note.

Just saw that, I'm confused was he PART of the crime or was the lawsuit just targeting him because he's family?

I don't think they'd ever been implicated, but many wondered HOW Madoff's sons didn't know what was going on since they worked with him. They were listed in a few other lawsuits for that reason.
Regardless of his innocence or guilt, I feel badly for his wife and children. Surviving a loved one's suicide is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

I feel badly for him as well.
I do wonder though, how much do you know and even if you do, how do you turn in a family member to the police/SEC/FBI.

His wife recently requested to change her and the children's surname due to threats.

Sins of the father...even if Madoff's sons had nothing to do with it,people are still going to constantly punish them for his crimes.
