Benoit failed to appear both at Saturday's live event in
Beaumont, Tx., and WWE's Vengeance: Night of Champions
in Houston Sunday night, after informing WWE of a family
emergency. Several curious text messages sent by Benoit
early Sunday morning prompted concerned friends to alert
Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, Inc.
Hering, in turn, spoke with Fayette County sheriffs Monday,
and requested that they respond to the Benoit residence to
check on him and his family.
Authorities representing the Sheriff's Department initially
had a difficult time entering Benoit's new Fayetteville
home Monday afternoon, which had been guarded by two large
German Shepherds roaming freely around the property. Once
authorities entered the residence, they quickly located the
bodies of Benoit, Nancy and Daniel. WWE was notified of the
discovery at approximately 4 p.m.
At 10 p.m. Monday night, Lt. Pope held a press conference
in conjunction with Scott Ballard, the district attorney
for Fayette County. The press conference officially ruled
authorities' findings as a double murder-suicide from
within the home.

WAGA, a FOX-owned and operated television station in
Atlanta, reported that investigators believe Benoit killed
his wife and 7-year-old son over the weekend, then himself
on Monday.
The three bodies have been received by the Georgia Bureau
of Investigation's crime lab, in Decatur, Ga., where
autopsies will be performed Tuesday morning. Toxicology
reports will not become available for at least two weeks.
WWE.com has further information relating to both the
investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette
County Sheriff's Department has requested that WWE.com
not release any additional details at this time.

Reader's Forum
I am not sure of the circumstances but my heart is broken
with the death of Chris Benoit. I hope that rumors prove
not to be true. What a marvelous tribute WWE had and tears
were flowing at the final minute when Eddie came out to
congratulate Chris. God bless you Chris and thanks for
the memories.

In response to Lms4545, I'm glad you pointed out that this
was your opinion. We're all entitled to an opinion of our
own. A car bomb was used because it was a big explosion,
with fire and noise! It had nothing to do with our troops,
and any similarities were of your own machinations. As far
as your 8 year old being shocked, I'm shocked you let a 3rd
grader stay up past 11 to watch a show with violent and
sexual themes. You want to feel comfortable? Next Monday,
at about 8 p.m., read him a Dr. Suess book and tuck him
into bed. Then do the same yourself.

memphis fan, give me a break will ya. im not mad cuz i
didnt see it coming. i knew he was dead. i think it was
cool to see the limo blow up. thats all good. but its
disrespectful when someone pretends to be dead. to me
thats a sin. he wants to retire or take time off fine.
but you dont have your fans believe your dead thats just
sick. then ringing the bell 10 times an so on. it is all
BS. Sherri is the one who really died. she should of been
honored she should of had the bell tolls. but no she got
her picture up for 5 seconds. THAT IS SICK!
