I'm still in shock. I've been following his career for about 16 years now, and have been a diehard fan the whole time. He was one of the ones I respected most, and with all the crazy fucks that are involved in wrestling he was the guy I looked at as being one of the rare normal ones that kept the sport legitimate.

Here are details from a law enforcement news conference held Tuesday afternoon regarding what is now ruled as a double homicide/suicide involving Chris Benoit, wife Nancy and seven-year-old son Daniel in their Atlanta-area home:

X: Fayette (Ga.) County district attorney Scott Ballard said law enforcement officials believe Benoit killed his wife Nancy on Friday night via affixation, then did the same to Daniel on Saturday morning before hanging himself Saturday night.

X: Ballard said Nancy Sullivan?s wrists and feet were bound with tape and that there was some blood under her head. Ballard said Sullivan was found in an upstairs living room area. Daniel Benoit was found dead in his own bed in his upstairs bedroom. A bible was placed next to the body of Nancy and Daniel.

X: Benoit hung himself with a cord in his basement weight room.

X: Anabolic steroids and what was described by one law-enforcement official as ?lots? of what is believed legal prescription medication were found in the house. A complete list of medications may be given to the media at a later date.

X: A WWE ?co-worker? [believed Chavo Guerrero] received a text message on a delayed basis from Benoit. Officials declined to elaborate on what information the messages contained.

X: Benoit was previously arrested in the Atlanta area on a DUI charge but has no record of a previous arrest for domestic violence.

X: There was no suicide note left inside the house.

X: ?In a community like this, it?s bizarre to have a murder/suicide, especially involving the death of a seven-year-old child,? Mallard said. ?That?s what struck me the most in all this: There?s a seven- year-old little boy who?s dead. I don?t think I?ll ever be able to wrap my mind around that completely.?

?It struck me as somewhat bizarre that he would even be in the home with their deceased bodies all that time ? I?m baffled why anyone would kill a seven year old. I don?t have any idea at all about a motive.?

I hate that this has happened, but I won't let it tarnish my memories of Benoit the wrestler. I will always consider him to be one of the best of all time.

As for Benoit the person, I hate to think he had sunk to this level, to have killed his own son. I can't imagine what could have driven him to this, and I won't speculate on it either. I hope in death his mind will find peace.

If he actually murdered his wife and seven-year-old son, then I hope the piece of shit rots in a hell that I don't believe in. I'll even go so far as to say that it might be possible that the wife could have done something that pushed a mentally-unstable guy over the edge which led him to kill her, but there's never any acceptable excuse for being a god damned child killer... there's not a single fucking this in this world that a 7-year-old kid could do to deserve that fate. Absolutely nothing.

And I'm in no way making any slight excuse for murdering the wife, because that's fucking inexcusable, too... but murdering the kid just overshadows everything else.

This is true. And that's really the saddest part of all this. While he was one of the greatest of all time, he destroyed his own legacy by doing what he did.

Like Discipline I've been a fan of his for many years, and the group of Benoit/Guerrero/Malenko was a big part of why I watched wrestling in the late 90s. He was so influential, a sure bet for the hall of fame... but that's all lost because of this terrible tragedy.

I hate that he shit on his own legacy, but more importantly he shit on the whole business of wrestling. It will be a long time before the business gets past the negative impact of this story spreading all over the mainstream media.

The HGH was used because of a condition the child had called Fragile X Syndrome.


Quote:

Canadian female Pam Winthrope told News 1130 in Canada that Chris Benoit's son had a genetic condition called Fragile X syndrome.

According to WebMD, "Fragile X Syndrome is a defect of the X chromosome which causes mild mental retardation. The disorder occurs more frequently and severely among males than females. This condition is the leading known familial cause of mental retardation in the United States. Language delays, behavioral problems, autism or autistic-like behavior (including poor eye contact and hand-flapping), enlarged external genitalia (macroorchidism), large or prominent ears, hyperactivity, delayed motor development and/or poor sensory skills are among the wide range of symptoms associated with this disorder."

Winthrope, whose son also suffers from the condition, told the Canadian news outlet that her husband reached out to Benoit five years ago in an attempt to increase awareness about Fragile X.

She told News 1130, "We talked to him because I was trying to set up a support group in BC and in Canada, we only have a couple of them. My husband was struggling when we got diagnosed with our son, and Chris was struggling with his. They talked for a few minutes and then he said he didn't want to be a public face for Fragile X, he just wanted to keep it really, really quiet."

Winthrope noted that the lack of support for those affected by the disorder can tear families apart. Nonetheless, "she couldn't believe the news that Benoit had taken his life along with his wife and 7-year-old son," wrote News 1130.

This may explain why Daniel was taking growth hormone injections. It also may shed light onto why Chris didn't want someone else raising his son and made the fateful decision to kill him. As irrational and twisted as it may sound, he may have felt he was saving his son from the double-blow of losing his parents through a murder-suicide and being subject to being raised by people who didn't understand or care for his condition.

he shoulda body slammed her.

also, while this whole thing is definitely sad, i wasn't THAT moved by it first, i suspect largely because i don't follow wrestling and don't know who these people are. it was kind of anonymous, ya know?

...that is, until i watched that interview and they showed the video clips of dude and his son. that shit right there fucked me up GOOD.
