Reports say Mark Madoff hung himself on the second anniversary of his father's arrest. 

He was found by family members this morning, and had apparently used a black dog leash to kill himself. 

He was 46-years-old and was the head trader at his father's firm. He worked there with his younger brother Andrew, and although they were questioned in their father's case they were never charged and always maintained they never knew about the fraud.
