An attractive banker and charity worker described as having 'everything anyone could want' jumped to her death from the roof of the 40-storey Trump Place building in New York.

Jessica Fashano, 27, was found face down in a third-floor courtyard in Manhattan just after 8am on Saturday morning in a suicide that has left her friends and colleagues as baffled as they are distraught.

Her shocking plunge from an enormous height led one witness to say the sound of the impact was 'so loud I thought part of the building was falling.'

Fashano had worked as an analyst with Citigroup since graduating from Georgetown University in 2005 and was so well thought of ...

'She just had everything someone could want to be successful,' said friend Michelle Javian.
