Benoit Found Dead

[Kenshyn 638]

Benoit died on monday and his son and wife died sometime over the weekend. He strangled his wife with an electric cord and there was a sign of struggle. He later killed his son by somethering his face with a plastic bag. Benoit then stayed at home till monday and then hung himself in the weight room/ basement. He hung himself there. Cops found bibles by his wife and son but not by him. his wife was in her office and his son was in his bedroom. Benoit also sent text messages out to his friends that had a thank you goodbye theme to them.

Yeah that's all been said already.

By the way, +rep since you're new.

 

IF YOU GUYS WATCH ECW, VINCE MCMAHON SAID HE IS GOING TO MAKE AN APOLOGY FOR AIRING THAT TRIBUTE.

WWE® Shocked At Latest Developments In Benoit Tragedy, Concerned By Sensationalistic Reporting

Written: June 26, 2007 STAMFORD, Conn., June 26, 2007 – World Wrestling Entertainment is stunned and saddened by the details released by local authorities concerning the double homicide-suicide involving Chris Benoit, his wife, Nancy, and his son, Daniel.

 

However, WWE is concerned with the sensationalistic reporting and speculation being undertaken by some members of the media following the press conference held by the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department and the District Attorney. During the press conference, the investigating authorities made the following points, all of which run contrary to the media speculation that "roid rage" was a factor in the senseless murders and suicide:

 

1. The authorities stated that all drugs found in the house were believed to be legal prescriptions.

 

2. Steroids were not, and could not, be related to the cause of death (asphyxiation). Authorities had no factual basis to speculate as to Benoit’s state of mind, and rightly did not do so.

 

3. Toxicology tests have not even been completed, so there is no current evidence that Benoit even had steroids or any other substance in his body. In that regard, on the last test done on Benoit by WWE's independently administered drug testing program, done on April 10, 2007, Benoit tested negative.

 

4. The physical findings announced by authorities indicate deliberation, not rage. The wife's feet and hands were bound and she was asphyxiated, not beaten to death. By the account of the authorities, there were substantial periods of time between the death of the wife and the death of the son, again suggesting deliberate thought, not rage. The presence of a Bible by each is also not an act of rage.

 

5. WWE strongly suggests that it is entirely wrong for speculators to suggest that steroids had anything to do with these senseless acts, especially when the authorities plainly stated there is no evidence that Benoit had steroids in his body, pending the toxicological reports, and that they had no evidence at this time as to the motive for these acts.

 

WWE is continuing to monitor the ongoing investigation being conducted by local authorities.

I don't see why this is "World news" material. A wrestler died, not the president.

 

Sorry for miss leading title.. Its more of a "news from anywhere around the world" type of thing.

this was one wrestler whom i never expected to do this. when i first heard about it, i thought "maybe he killed them and then himself" but it seemed really out of the question. i'm really interested in hearing what they say the motive was.

[Major Zhuinden 128]

I have never even heard of this guy's existence before I have read this thread. Are we actually supposed to care about his death? He's just one of the many.
