  Old  Pro wrestler Chris Benoit killed himself, wife, and son!

Cops eye 'roid rage in wrestler's murder-suicide
Ex-star Benoit killed wife, son, self in grisly crime spread out over weekend

Excerpt:

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. - Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his 7-year-old son and placed a Bible next to their bodies before hanging himself with the pulley of a weight machine, authorities said Tuesday.

Investigators found prescription anabolic steroids in the house and want to know whether the muscle man nicknamed “The Canadian Crippler” was unhinged by the bodybuilding drugs, which can cause paranoia, depression and explosive outbursts known as “roid rage.”

Authorities offered no motive for the killings, which were spread out over a weekend, and would not discuss Benoit’s state of mind. No suicide note was found.

Not sure, how many wrestling fans they are on this forum, but I used to be one when I was young (9), and I remember Benoit being one of my favorite wrestlers.

He was the ONE OF THE guy who taught me 'never give up'.

I fell sorry for him. Bless him.

RIP!

What a sad story.

It will be interesting to find out if the steroids played any part in this. How a father could murder his 7 year old son is beyond me.

Such a shame that he had to take his wife and kid with him.

If you could, please keep us updated on this story.

RIP

Sad about the wife and kid, but he is certainly no loss.

I agree. It makes me SICK to hear he could even do such a thing to his family.

This isn't the first time anyone had done such a thing.
