Ruth Madoff, the wife of Bernard Madoff, said in an interview with CBS's Morley Safer that the couple had attempted to commit suicide after his Ponzi scheme was revealed.
"I don't know whose idea it was, " Ruth Madoff said in her first interview. "But we decided to kill ourselves because it was so horrendous what was happening." The couple received phone calls and hate mails that culminated in their attempt to end their lives on Christmas Eve 2008, two weeks after his husband confessed to stealing $18 billion from investors.
According to ABC News, Ruth Madoff used to visit her husband at jail regularly. This relationship ended two years later after their son, Mark Madoff, hanged himself in his New York apartment on December 11, 2010.
Bernard Madoff, however, is apparently much more at ease now he is jail. "I feel safer here than outside," he told Barbara Walters. "I lived the last 20 years of my life in fear. Now I have no fear." He also confided in the two-hour interview that he "can live with" the anger of the victims whom he defrauded.
He said, however, that the worst thing about being in prison is "not seeing my family and knowing they hate me." Madoff is currently serving a 150-year prison term at a federal prison in Butner, North Carolina.
