Millionaire Fashion Boss found d+ad with his wife after reportedly losing $100M to a bad financial decision – Police probe likely m¥rder/s¥icide case

A wealthy California fashion executive allegedly lost more than $100 million through risky investments and secret borrowing before he sh+t his wife and himself in what police are investigating as a possible m¥rder-su¥cide, his family has claimed.

Bryan Walker, 64, and his wife of more than 30 years, Michelle Min, 63, were found d+ad on Friday October 2 at their $1.2 million home near UC Berkeley, California.

Min’s brother, Paul Min, told The California Post that the marriage was not in trouble but claimed Walker had secretly borrowed against family properties and made increasingly risky financial bets, leaving him convinced he had lost over $100 million.

Paul said Walker’s mental state deteriorated severely in the weeks before the d+aths.

“He just curled up into a ball, and he was just sobbing like a baby for weeks on end,” he said.

The family reportedly became concerned that Walker was s¥icidal and began arranging to have him institutionalized.

Paul claimed that on the morning Walker was due to be admitted, he allegedly sent a nearby friend a message reading, “Call 911!” before g+nshots were heard.

According to the family’s account, Walker allegedly sh+t Michelle while she was on the patio with their dog before turning the f+rearm on himself.

Police have not formally determined that the d+aths were a m¥rder-s¥icide and are continuing to investigate. Officers recovered one f+rearm from the home.

The couple owned the women’s fashion company Bryn Walker, with Michelle playing a leading role in the business.

Paul said Michelle remained devoted to her husband despite the financial crisis and had even hired an accountant who reportedly concluded their situation was not as disastrous as Walker believed.

Investigators reportedly found a possible suicide note containing passcodes to both victims’ phones.
