• Jefferies CEO Richard Handler addressed the death of 28-year-old associate Carter McIntosh.
• The memo slammed 'unfounded, vitriolic attacks' against the firm in the wake of the death.
• Dallas police are probing McIntosh's passing as an "unexplained death.'

Jefferies CEO Richard Handler addressed the death of a 28-year-old tech banker in a memo to staff on Saturday, slamming online "speculation" and "cynical assumptions" and offering support to junior staffers.

"I hope that all of you who know me understand how personally heartbreaking this is for me," Handler said of the unexpected death of Carter McIntosh, a TMT banker out of Dallas.

McIntosh was found dead at a residential apartment building called Bell Knox District on Monday, according to records from the Dallas County Medical Examiner's office. The cause of death remains unknown, but it has led to some criticisms online over the sometimes grueling demands that can be placed on young Wall Street professionals.

Handler on Saturday blasted what he called "unfounded, vitriolic attacks."

"At this point, nobody knows exactly what happened and engaging in speculation with cynical assumptions serves no useful purpose and only adds to the grief that the McIntosh family is suffering," he said.

Dallas police said they are investigating McIntosh's passing. "Based on the date, approximate time, and location, this incident is being investigated as an unexplained death," Michael Dennis, a public information officer for the Dallas police, told BI on Tuesday.

Handler said he spent time with junior members of the Dallas office on Thursday and offered support for anyone grieving or overworked.

"So, whether it is being overwhelmed by the sadness of Carter’s passing or getting overloaded by work or even feeling like there are things in your personal life that seem unmanageable, always feel free to reach out to us or to any of our highly capable senior leaders," he said.

A spokesman for Jefferies declined to comment on the memo.
