</html><description>There's a sad little story in the "NY/Region" section of the New York Times, which illustrates a not often enough discussed sort of wreckage resulting from the housing mess: that of deaths resulting from foreclosures.  Think I'm exaggerating? There have been cases of suicides, or murder/suicides of people losing their homes. But that can't necessarily be attributed to foreclosure per se, but of personal financial disaster, with the foreclosure being the literally fatal blow. So while one can attribute their deaths to the financial crisis and therefore to the reckless behavior of major financial firms, it's hard to pin it on foreclosures per se.  But there are some deaths that can, indisputably, be blamed on foreclosures or more specifically, the negligent management of foreclosed properties.</description></oembed>
