whats that got to with anything, just cos someone doesnt get along with tjhe Benoits dont mean there gonna kill them. Anyway, with Benoits strength he would have been able to protect them

Maybe so but Sullivan would have had easy access to their house because he knew them, Benoit may not have been there, if he was he may have been worried for the safety of his family.
There are so many possibilities like I keep saying.

Kevin Sullivan was also a wrestler, he was the one that pretty much brought Nancy into the wrestling business, I've already read a blog by someone who outlined why they believe why he could have done it but I really don't know about that, from what the police of said it does look fairly conclusive but we shall see.

I am still trying to get my head around this whole thing.Benoit was always a favourite wrestler of mine and that was over a long period of time and I always saw him as just a respectful family man as did all of his co-workers who must be totally bewildered by the whole thing.The full story behind it will most likely never be known but it is still so hard to come to terms with.

Didn't Sullivan do a storyline with Nancy and Chris and they fell in love after it .. or am i making it up? I mean I'd be pretty pissed at someone if they stole my husband you know.. but it was 10 years ago, however he is a Satanist.. he's evvvil probably .

It is a very hard thing to overcome and understand. Don't think it will happen in the near future for me. Until the whole results come out thats when I'll try to understand everything properly. I really can't get round the fact he's gone and I never got the pleasure to watch him live or meet him. It was always something I really wanted to do. :bawling:

Yeah he was the booker back in WCW back then and it ended up evolving in real life too.I saw an article done by Sullivan a couple days back and he seemed far to at ease over Nancy leaving him.I found it strange to be honest.

The whole thing is just so random and odd that it's hard to comprehend.

Save your tears Dan_ Chris murdered his wife and son. He is a murdering scum bag who doesnt deserve any sympathey at all. I cant believe he did this and now he wont get punished for his crime :mad:. I only feel sorry for his wife, son and their familes and friends. I cant imagine what there going through right now.

You say that like it's the truth and you know that for a fact, I'm pretty sure the investigation is still ongoing.

I know it as I have read true facts in places. Nancy was tied up by her hands and feet in one room with blood under her head so obviously there was some sort of struggle and Chris killed her. She not going to tie herself up is she :rolleyes:. Daniel was in his bedroom in his bed and apprentely Chris put a choke hold on him to kill. And then Chris goes and kills himself in his weight room with a weight lifting machine. Now to me nobody could of gotten someone as strong as Chris to sit on a weight lifting machine to hang himself to kill him. He had to of done that himself. And there are other things that have come out like there was no forced entry to the house so nobody broke in. And it was said there was no outsiders to be involved with how they did the investigation. The dogs had been let outside with the back gate open as Chris sent text messages to Chavo saying that. Also he sent text messages with his house address on. And these messages were sent from Chris phone so it cant of been anyone else plus how would anyone else know Chavo phone number. It wouldnt make any sense. Then theres Chris calling to say he has a "family emergency" but no other details but really is he killing his family then himself. He said he would be there for the house show but he didnt go. Then Vengance came but he didnt show up for that either. So all the evidence is there and to me and anyone else it says it clearly that Chris killed his family and then himself. If someone had really done this then dont you think someone would of seen a person around the house running away. But nothing was seen so thats another thing thats points out that it has to be Chris. Believe what you want but I know Chris had to of done it. Theres no way Nancy or Daniel could of done something like this. Chris was obiously not right in the head and someone should of found this out and got him help and then his poor family wouldnt of been killed.

What from newspapers? Yes but it could have easily been somone who knew the Benoits.. that would have granted them access to the house easily WITHOUT forced entry, hence no proof. Chris did not put a choke hold on him. It's been said bibles were left at the side of the bodies, Chris doesn't believe in religion so why would he do it? I do believe Chris killed himself but I'm still not convinced he killed his family. Chris maybe did send these texts to alert someone what had happened, he wouldn't have sent them really if he knew he was going to get such bad publicity for all of this. No suicide note, surely he would have left one at least explaining to his other relatives and fans what had happened so we wouldn't be talking about it right now. That makes me believe even more he could have been forced into this. You never know. Erm, maybe the number was stored in his phone book??? Apparently this family emergency was that his family had been poisoned and were coughing up blood. I don't think anyone would take notice of someone walking down their street, if it was Sullivan, they could have even thought he was visiting, who knows. Don't think I'm in denial, i'm speculating. Police need to widen their investigation.

I understand their is what appears to be over whelming evidence that suggests Chris killed his family but I still ask what state of mind must he have been in.

My friend certainly wasnt evil when she killed her son and herself, she was depressed, struggling to cope with a handicapped child and feeling isolated as it was for her to deal with! She certainly wasnt a monster, or evil or anything near to that. She was un fact a loving mum who couldnt live with her son and certainly couldnt live without him.

What happened to her was a tragedy and I feel it could be similar with Benoit! his son was handicapped, he was having marriage problems, and could well have been terribly depressed.

None of what I have said excuses it but could explain it if that makes sense.

there you go, is everybody happy now?

Dave confirmed he used a form of the Crippler Crossface on Daniel. This is interesting since Bryan was adamant that the story was bullshit. Apparently investigators found marks on the boys arm and neck that they didn't understand and upon watching a tape of a Benoit match and seeing the move it made sense. They just said it was a "choke" as to not further sensationalize an already sensationalized story.

-Dave said Bryan Alvarez was closer to Benoit (he found his writing hilarious) then he was and that Dave hardly ever talked to Chris (while Bryan seemed to indicate semi regular contact).

-Benoit got a prescription for the anti-depressant Xanax at the doctor's visit on Friday.

-Benoit started going downhill after Eddy died because he lost the one guy who he could confide in and shared his problems with. Apparently close friends always knew Benoit had the same problems as Eddy (pills, etc.) and suggested Benoit seriously needed to see a therapist but no one suggested it since he wasn't the type to be open to that sort of thing.

-Apparently the death of Johnny Grunge hit Benoit even harder then Eddy since they were neighbors and him and Nancy fighting was somewhat common and he'd be the one to come over and defuse situations and make Chris laugh. After he died, Chris didn't have that buffer when things got out of control.

-Chris and Nancy had recently separated for a period of time, and Dave received a change of address form for an apartment different then their house (I believe Bryan mentioned he got a different address too).

-Chris recently opened up a new life insurance claim naming his ex-wife and his older 2 kids as the beneficiaries and refused to include Nancy or Daniel.

-When there were rumors of him leaving for TNA, Dave asked him about it and Chris was paranoid thinking Dave had inside info that WWE was going to release him. He apparently may have thought ECW was a demotion and the next step would be out the door. He was reportedly obsessed with establishing himself at the HHH/HBK level. He had grown increasingly paranoid that someone was out to get him and didn't let Nancy leave the house at night or Daniel to play outside and would take different routes from the airport home each time in case he was being followed.

-Nancy confided to a friend in wrestling days before the murders that she feared for her life and the friend told her to go take Daniel to her parents place in Florida (as she had done before when Chris became violent) but she didn't this time. Apparently she had a lockbox at the bank with notes indicating if something happened to her, it was Chris.

-Theory is that she told him she was leaving him for good and taking Daniel and that's when he snapped on her. Loved his son and when she filed for divorce all he wanted was joint custody. Theory is he killed Daniel because in his mind he couldn't bare to let him be alone without his parents and in his condition so it was a "mercy killing".

-Someone in WWE informed Dave before the RAW show that Chris had killed them, but others in the company were unaware but at least someone high up knew before the tribute show was put on the air.

Nancy visited Dr. Astin on Thursday asking questions about how she could raise Daniel on her own.

-Dave gave a description of the common profile of men who kill their whole families and it was eerily similar to Benoit (hard working, driven, experienced a loss, a few friends but no real support system, anxiety, etc."

-Said Chris was constantly anxious about something. When he was at home he was worried about wrestling, when wrestling he was worried about his family.

-How's this for eerie. When Vince called all the guys in the ring before RAW to give the news, the stage had been decorated with a casket, reefs, candles with Vince's picture, etc. like a funeral. Talent was told to bring dark suits like a funeral to the taping. I'm sure that was a blast. Vince apparently handled it really well, told anyone who wanted to go home would not be disciplined but guys were basket cases and trying to think of some rationalization (carbon monoxide, etc.)

-Regal was a neighbor of Benoit's and Grunge and would have know about the home troubles so that sheds some light on his "tribute".

-Dave says he can't write a proper obit/career retrospect and doesn't know if he ever will.

I still support the man even now it's been said what he did. Depression is a very horrible thing and i think he suffered from it taking 4 months off last year.

No-one is happy when a child and his mother has been killed by someone they love.

I never said thats what you were happy about. Probably the fact that you were right and I wasn't.

I know you didn't mean that, I didn't mean it to sound like I was snapping at you, sorry. I just meant I'm not happy even if I was right, it would be so much better if they were all alive and happy again.

Ok, just most people I know would probably just laugh about it, knowing they were right anyway.

I think he probably prescribed them due to depression also. He became depressed after Eddie's death I think. Pain too, and how do people who believe the wrestlers dont get hurt at all explain this?:rolleyes:

Should'nt have prescribed them, at least Benoits not ALL to blame, the doctor should NOT have prescribed that many for him, surely he has some sense in doing that?
