Escort girls ‘left bank chief to hang in mock execution’

A bank chief died in a hanging after paying two escort girls to take part in an “execution role play” to punish him for being a “loser”.

Colin Birch, 44, the former assistant vice-president of Deutsche Bank, had ordered the escorts to kick away a step ladder on which he was standing with a noose round his neck tied to a tree.

    Best bank transaction ever?

    Article sez:
    As Ms Sturley climbed the steps and gave him a kiss on the cheek, Miss Laurent said she could see “tears in his eyes as if he was getting overwhelmed”.

    Although Miss Sturley said it “didn’t feel right” she kicked the ladder away and she “laughed loudly” as she had been ordered as she and Ms Laurent left.

    Det Sgt Lee Neiles told the court there were two possible conclusions, that Mr Birch had tried to commit suicide or that he had “manufactured a situation intending that it be a role play scenario and had miscalculated it”.

    The coroner Roger Hatch, recorded an open verdict, saying: “I am satisfied having heard the evidence that there was nothing to suggest Mr Birch intended to take his own life.

    A banker with tears in his eyes can only mean he wanted to commit suicide, surely?

    For a jobless banker, he certainly had enough money for girls it seems.

    oh! .. thank god it was not Colin Firth, I misread at first ….
    and thank god, their were no Vonda bras involved, or at least mentioned ;-) :D

    The banks screw everyone – first savers, then borrowers, then the general economy and tax revenues and finally the banks themselves.

    Question? Why the heck do we think we need banks?

    We don’t.

    Considering bankers strike me as the anti-creative type this certainly was more creative than jumping from a skyscraper.

    If he could afford the escort service, what the heck was he playing at hanging himself?
    A bank executive, and his wife, could have found second jobs. They could have downsized to a smaller residence, sold one or more of their extra automobiles, gone out on the town a few times less every month, pass up their annual vacation trips.

    I guess stupid is as stupid does.

    he could have blown the wistle in a letter/email to Max or Naomi Prins or whoever …?
    before all that action, at least!!! Sucker!
    c´mon Max, publish the document !!!! ;-)
    or all this is just another hoax and the hookers were “hitmen” in disguise with no Vonda- bras …

    For the creatively challenged banksters, there is nothing quite like a simple graceful dive out of the window of the banks top floor board room. Think of the bliss experienced sailing through the wind, brushing past ones cheeks, streaming through the hair. What a rush in seeing the earth coming forth. Olympic dive forms could be judged with stop action cameras. Awards made posthumously to surviving family members.
    Now with hangings, think Lamp posts in all of their forms, out there in the public domain for all to see. Well. . . banksters come on, leap into the future! Come on. . . buk buk buk! Chicken? Jump for eternal bliss!

    International trade requires them…
    (ie. I just bought some stuff from Germany which costs wayyyy too much here).

    You can’t do this without dealing with banks in some form, unless you like sending in cash through the mail (no retailer accepts that).

    Then there’s mortgages and housing bubbles. I wish nobody bought so the prices would remain low and then people could save up in a reasonable time to buy a place, but in many parts of the world (Australia included), it’s not an option for many people.

    Then there’s many employers, who won’t pay you cash-in-hand…

    I used to wonder what the ‘dirty thirties’ were like until I discovered they were going on all around me. I just never grew up quick enough.

    Believe it or not, I sympathize with this banker; he lost his job and couldn’t get another one, so the obvious thing to do is hire two whores to hang you for a laugh. It’s only fair to acknowledge you’re a loser when you are. Me, I quit banking in 2007 and felt suicidal when all my savings ran out, but I’d not got the money by then to buy whores and I feared I’d fail at killing myself just like I failed to get another job in banking afterwards. Ah well, it’s a funny old life.

    Don’t you all be that callous, that’s sad.
    At least appreciate that he refused to do it with the usual German
    connotation the British elite’s guys normally love,
    getting whipped to death in a sadomasochist in Nazi orgy,
    getting shot fleeing from a mock Nazi-death-camp by female guards
    in suspenders.
    Though working for Deutsche Bank might count as the German connotation…

    “The term “alumina” refers to aluminum oxide – the most dangerous form of the heavy metal to human and plant life.”

    Since when was aluminium a heavy metal??

    Arrgh! Look, clouds! They must be trying to kill us!

    Or as the bankers fall through the air they can image they are Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve is coming to save them. :-D

    @Bruce,

    Their MIGHT be some need for completely private banks but there is absolutely NO need for ANY government privileged banks or else the private sector is incompetent.

  30. F. Beard

    @Dump Nuts,

    You should be proud that you are not banker material! Just read Proverbs and Ecclesiastes sometimes. And neither David nor Solomon were “losers” in the worldly sense.

    “Colin Birch, 44, the former assistant vice-president of Deutsche Bank, had ordered the escorts to kick away a step ladder on which he was standing with a noose round his neck tied to a tree”

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Its good to know that our financial sector is being managed by people who are capable of such clear foresight.

    @ F Beard,

    Yes, I’ve read the Bible, I like the OT but the NT has Jesus pissing off the money-changers, that’s even better. Maybe Jesus will one day finish off the bankers for good. David and Solomon were Kings & Lords of great wealth, me, I’m broke, and I vary between not giving a damn about money to dreaming of winning the lottery like a schmuck. The lesson of too much worldliness is well learnt though. Thanks again.

  34. F. Beard

    @Dump Nuts,

    I used to play the lottery myself just to make it easier for the Lord to make me rich. What an idiot I was; the obvious solution is a rich widow!

    Just kidding though I do wonder how He would bring it off should He desire to.

    I like the style of this this dude.
    People do have a choice, he should of got out of banking earlier.
    I know of a few decent people who decided to get out of Australian banking in the 90′s.
    From what I can gather they never regreted it for a minute.

    How very auspicious! But what about those poor brave hard working girls? Someone should send them a silver “Pour le Mérite”, or something. Nevertheless, the distinction would probably be swamped by the – obligatory – upcoming Darwin Prize nomination, of course.

    don’t know if anyone has posted this; haven’t had a chance to read the comments yet…anyway a decent peter o’toole movie begins with a similar scene; janus will go and see if he can retrieve it.

    it’s a bit blasphemous…but if janus can handle it, you can too.

    @Susan, that is shocking about them spewing sulfur dioxide high into the atmosphere. The scientists sound as mad as their masters. When I was in university the lecturers said only way to get big funding was to mention the global warming word. Is this a case of making work for some researchers who have no idea what their master’s agenda is. Thing is noone knows what anomalous outcomes(acid rain obviously) can come from such dangerous experiments, fools for messing in globally changing events they don’t understand.
