		<description>From the Wall Street Journal:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Mr. Kellermann&#039;s job made him responsible for financial controls and reporting at Freddie Mac, a housing-finance company backed by the federal government. He had been with the company for more than 16 years, starting as a financial analyst and auditor in 1992, according to the company&#039;s Web site.

Investigators from the Securities and Exchange Commission and Justice Department have been questioning officials of Freddie Mac about possible accounting violations and other matters in recent months, the company disclosed in March.

Freddie disclosed in the recent SEC filing that in September it received a federal grand jury subpoena from the U.S. Attorney&#039;s Office for the Southern District of New York seeking documents related to accounting, disclosure and corporate-governance matters. That subpoena was later withdrawn, Freddie has disclosed, and the investigation was taken over by the U.S. Attorney&#039;s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia. 

Freddie said the SEC also is investigating and has told the company to preserve documents. Freddie has said it is &quot;cooperating fully in these matters.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

  Maybe it&#039;s related to that?</description>
