Sparks...I would hope so...but the police are firm they aren't looking for any outside people.

Whatever the murder weapon was - I think they would have seen it was the same for each person, pending forensic confirmation.

This is just so unbelievable. They are testing to see if roids may have been a factor.... if they were I really hope the WWE wakes up and starts doing regular testing with severe consequences for those that are using.

I hate to think this could have all been avoided if he hadn't been on the juice.

How tragic.

Heavy prayers here...smothering is not quick. OMG. They suspect he might have gone nuts on steroids.

Wrestler Benoit killed wife, son in murder-suicide, official says

By DEBBIE NEWBY / Associated Press

Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife and smothered his son before hanging himself in his weight room, a law enforcement official close to the investigation told The Associated Press Tuesday.

The official spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Authorities also said they are investigating whether steroids may have been a factor in the deaths of Benoit, his wife and their 7-year-old son who were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide.

Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard said test results may not be back for weeks or even months.

Autopsies were scheduled Tuesday by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation in DeKalb County.

Benoit canceled a pay-per-view appearance at the "Vengeance" event in Houston because of "personal reasons" a day before the three were found dead.

World Wrestling Entertainment said on its Web site that it asked authorities to check on Benoit and his family after being alerted by friends who received "several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning." The WWE canceled its live "Monday Night RAW" card in Corpus Christi, Texas.
