CHRIS BENOIT CASE/NACHWIRKUNGEN

[ToFu]

Hab ich auch eben gelesen.

Psychologisch gesehen könnte Daniels Zustand in Benoits Logik der Grund dafür gewesen sein, dass er nach dem Totschlag seiner Frau auch noch Daniel das Leben nahm. Er könnte in diesem Moment gedacht haben, dass es für Daniel schlimmer wäre in diesem Zustand ohne seine Eltern weiter zu leben - so unvorstellbar grausam sich das für Außenstehende auch anhören mag.

Und mal eine interessante Aussage contra dem "Roid Rage":
Der Experte für Gehirnerschütterungen und ehemalige Mitarbeiter von Tough Enough Chris Nowinski sagte der New York Times, das er vermutet, das Benoit's Porbleme von wiederholten Gehirnverletzungen während der Zeit als Wrestler stammen könnten und sich somit eventuell auch der Kurzschluss im Gehirn kurz vor der Tat erklären ließe.

Interessanterweise zieht der Ex-Mann von Nancy Benoit, Kevin Sullivan den selben Auslöser für die Tat in Erwägung wie Chris Nowinski.

Und noch eine Meldung pro "Roid Rage":
Kürzlich veröffentlichte Berichte sagen, das Chris Benoit offensichtlich Kunde bei einer Firma namens "MedXLife" gewesen sei. Diese Firma, die eigentlich auf "Anti-Aging" spezialisiert ist, steht unter Verdacht, illegal Roids an den Mann zu bringen.

Kannst du zu der Angabe, dass er seinen Sohn mit dem Crossface getötet haben soll eine Quellenangabe geben? Ich finde leider keine Angaben, die bestätigen, dass der Sohn erwähnte Quetschungen hatte.

Die Polizei hat den Medien mitgeteilt das bei der Autopsy Quetschungen festgestellt wurden, die mit dem Crippler Crossface uebereinstimmen. Ich kenne jemand der bei einer grossen Zeitung arbeitet, kann dir also keinen Link oder sowas geben, aber es wird frueher oder spaeter bestaetigt werden.

Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard joined Bob Frantz this morning on WTAM-1100 in Cleveland . Frantz’s topic on his show this morning was the Benoit story.

Frantz asked about reports that Nancy Benoit had bruises on her back from him having his knee in her back and bruises on her front from being pressed into the floor and the cable around her neck. He asked if this sounded like an incident of rage or something that was plotted out? Ballard said, in looking at the times of death – if it was rage, it was an extended period of rage. He says it doesn’t look like a temporary loss of self control, but rather separate incidents spread apart over hours. Ballard also said that there were steroids in the home, but couldn’t say what quantity.

Frantz asked about needle marks in Benoit’s son’s arm, and Ballard confirmed that there were “older” needle marks in the boys arm and he may have been injected with the steroids. Ballard also said he believes Benoit had a prescription for the steroids and thus had them legally.

Frantz asked if Ballard had ever seen anything like this where a situation of this type was stretched over a period of days and Ballard said he had not. They discussed Benoit staying in the house over those days with the bodies and Ballard indicated they are investigating Benoit’s comings and goings from the house over that time period.

Frantz questioned if the text messages Benoit apparently sent including one that suggested Nancy and Daniel had food poisoning were a way to set up an alibi. Ballard disagreed – saying he was likely simply explaining why they might not be out for people to see. Ballard believes the later test messages were designed by Benoit to have someone find his body after the suicide. Frantz clarified his question – in that he was wondering if Benoit initially wasn’t planning to kill himself and was setting up that as an explanation for his wife and son’s deaths. Ballard said there are plenty of possibilities – but investigators believe the texts about food poisoning were sent after Nancy and Daniel were already dead.

Frantz asked about the toxicology reports and Ballard said they will show what substances were in their bodies so they can get a better idea if steroids or other drugs played a role here. Ballard also said he was not aware of any other abuse in the home.

Ballard was asked in general how the D.A.’s office handles a situation where there will be no prosecution. He says they are still investigating to make sure there is no other involved party at large. They don’t believe there is but need to make sure.

Frantz asked how the community is handling it and Ballard said pretty well. He noted that fans are crushed and in state of disbelief. He also said he wasn’t sure many people in the area knew who he was and said he had never heard of Benoit.

Frantz then questioned Ballard about the timeline of events and when WWE would have known about it as a murder-suicide, because Frantz has been critical of WWE for running a tribute show Monday night while their own website posted that investigators were checking this as a double-murder-suicide during the show.

Ballard indicated that the bodies were found Monday around 2:30pm and it wasn’t until Tuesday around 2pm that it was officially announced that it was a double-murder-suicide, so WWE may not have known Monday night that it was a double-murder-suicide with Benoit as the murderer. He noted that investigators were being very guarded about what info they let out until they had all the facts straight. He said there may have been significant details that WWE didn’t know about Monday night.

Frantz pressed and clarified what he saw on WWE .com during the RAW show about a double-murder-suicide – but noted that no one was saying at that point who the murderer was – and it could have been Nancy . Ballard noted that some info may have gotten out earlier – but there was a lot of confusion early and then misinformation as well. He said it is harsh to judge WWE for running a tribute in their grief for an incident they didn’t have all the details about.

The interview was in hour one of the Bob Frantz show which can be podcast by going to this link. Bob talked about the Benoit story with callers throughout the show.

So makaber es ist, aber irgendwie denke ich in diesem Zusammenhang an den bekannten WWE-Slogan

Wrestler and wife argued over child care
By GREG BLUESTEIN, Associated Press Writer

In the days before pro wrestler Chris Benoit killed his wife and child and hanged himself, the couple argued over whether he should stay home more to take care of their mentally retarded 7-year-old son, an attorney for the wrestling league said Wednesday.



"I think it's fair to say that the subject of caring for that child was part of what made their relationship complicated and difficult, and it's something they were both constantly struggling with," said Jerry McDevitt, an attorney for World Wrestling Entertainment. "We do know it was a source of stress and consternation."

McDevitt said the wrestling organization learned from the couple's friends and relatives that the Benoits were struggling with where to send the boy to school since he had recently finished kindergarten.

He also said Benoit's wife didn't want him to quit wrestling, but she "wanted him to be at home more to care for the kid. She'd say she can't take care of him by herself when he was on the road."

The child suffered from a rare medical condition called Fragile X Syndrome, an inherited form of mental retardation often accompanied by autism, McDevitt said.
Over the past weekend, authorities said, Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his son and placed a Bible next to their bodies before hanging himself with a weight-machine cable in the couple's suburban home. No motive was offered for the killings, which were discovered Monday.

Anabolic steroids were found in Benoit's home, leading officials to wonder whether the drugs played a role in the slayings. Some experts believe steroids cause paranoia, depression and violent outbursts known as "roid rage."
The WWE, based in Stamford, Conn., issued a news release Tuesday saying steroids "were not and could not be related to the cause of death" and that the findings indicate "deliberation, not rage." It also added that Benoit tested negative April 10, the last time he was tested for drugs.

Also Wednesday, Benoit's personal physician said the wrestler did not give any indication he was troubled when he met with the doctor hours before the start of the weekend.

Benoit had been under the care of Dr. Phil Astin, a longtime friend, for treatment of low testosterone levels. Astin said the condition likely originated from previous steroid use.

Astin prescribed testosterone for Benoit in the past but would not say what, if any, medications he prescribed the day of their meeting.

"He was in my office on Friday to stop by just to see my staff," Astin said. "He certainly didn't show any signs of any distress or rage or anything."

"I'm still very surprised and shocked, especially with his child Daniel involved," Astin said. "He worshipped his child."

District Attorney Scott Ballard said the autopsy indicated that there were no bruise marks on the child's neck, so authorities are now assuming he could have been killed using a choke hold. "It's a process of elimination," he said.

The Benoits' argument over their son was not the only friction in their marriage. Nancy Benoit had filed for a divorce in 2003, saying the couple's three-year marriage was irrevocably broken and alleging "cruel treatment." She later dropped the complaint.



Meanwhile, authorities in Georgia were investigating a link between Benoit and a Florida business that may have supplied him with steroids.

Prosecutors in upstate New York who have been investigating the company's drug sales said Benoit received deliveries from Signature Pharmacy and MedXLife.com, which sold steroids, human growth hormone and testosterone on the Internet.

Six people, including two of the pharmacy's owners, have pleaded guilty in the investigation, and 20 more have been arrested, including doctors and pharmacists.
"That's something that sounds like we ought to be investigating," Ballard told the AP on Wednesday.
A lawyer for MedXLife co-owner Dr. Gary Brandwein scoffed at allegations that his client's company sold steroids to Benoit.

"I've only read that in the paper. I have no direct information about that whatsoever," Terence Kindlon said Wednesday, adding that prosecutors in Albany County, N.Y., were trying to "distract everyone's attention from the fact that their case is disintegrating."

Brandwein, a 44-year-old osteopath from Boca Raton, Fla., has pleaded not guilty to six counts in New York state court related to the criminal sale of a controlled substance. He was accused of signing and sending prescriptions without ever seeing patients.

Telephone messages left for attorneys for Brian Schafler and Greg Trotta — two other co-owners of MedXLife — were not immediately returned Wednesday. The two men have pleaded guilty to felony third-degree diversion of prescription medications and prescriptions, admitting they helped get drugs in 2006 for customers in upstate New York who had no medical need for them.

McDevitt said the drugs found in Benoit's house were legitimately prescribed. "There's no question, none of these drugs are out there, none of these drugs came from Internet pharmacies," he said.

In addition to causing paranoia and explosive outbursts, steroids can also contribute to deep depression, according to experts.

"Just as you have the extreme high of when you're on steroids, you can get the opposite," said Dr. Todd Schlifstein, a clinical assistant professor at the New York University School of Medicine. "You can have a dramatic difference in mood swings. You can feel there's no hope, there's no future."
