Wrestlers family found dead

[Catty1]

One more set of excerpts from CBC online:
************************************************** ********
Officials said:

* Benoit, 40, killed his 43-year-old wife, Nancy, on Friday night. Her body was found wrapped in a towel in the home office. Her wrists and ankles were bound and a Bible had been placed near her body. The cause of death was ruled as asphyxiation.
* An autopsy suggested that the son, Daniel, was killed on Saturday morning. He was found in his bed, also with a Bible beside his body. His cause of death was also asphyxiation.
* Later Saturday or early Sunday, Benoit hanged himself in the basement weight room, using the cord from his pulley weight set. He did not leave a suicide note.

Meanwhile, court documents have surfaced that show that Benoit's wife requested a restraining order against her husband in 2003, accusing him of threatening her and breaking furniture in their home. She later dropped the request.

Nancy Benoit also filed for divorce that year, saying her three-year marriage was irrevocably broken and marked by "cruel treatment." She later withdrew the complaint.

What a heart breaking story.

I do not in anyway excuse what he did. It's horrible. But the whole situation is so saddening.

With so many cases of death linked to steroid use (not nessecarily this one but in the past) I just find it hard to believe that the WWE is doing any kind of extensive or even reliable testing for these drugs.

There are many characterisitics to look for in steroid users.... not only emotionally but many physical characteristics are very apparent in those that are using roids and those that aren't. many in the WWE possess these physical characteristics.

Perhaps there's too many dollars in it for them Sparksy.

Looks like Benoit's doc got himself in a whole load of hot water.
