How are you all so certain of what happened? Were you there? I don't remember of reading about any witnesses to the incident coming forward? I don't remember hearing about someone else being in the house at the time, or saw it through the window etc. So, how do you know?
Oh, what the police said so. So, it must be right then. I mean, the cops never arrest the wrong man, do they? There has never been anyone who has gone to prison or been executed who was later found to be innocent, has there? I forgot about America's iron-clad 100% strike rate when it comes to capturing perpetrators.
The police, who in the space of 48 hours, were about to reach a conclusion without coming up with a list of suspects, interrogating anyone to test their alibi or speaking to any person who SAW it happen. The police, who always suspect family members first, and often overlook less obvious suspects, because as long as someone pays, who cares, right? I mean, it is always a family member who does it. Also, what evidence was found and tested by a court of law? But I bet it is a big relief to the cops that Benoit is dead. It makes their job easier, rather than chase down leads, interview suspects, come up with motives etc. This way, they can finish up before the doughnut shop closes.
If Benoit did do it, then why? What was his motive? Roid-rage, demetia, his wife was leaving him? Come on. You people know so damn much, you must know. You and the police are so SURE that he did it, without a doubt, so you must have a motive for why he did it too.
The police found five beer cans and a bottle of wine next to the exercise machine Benoit was founding hanging from. I wonder how a man who would have been drunk could have had the judgment and clarity to remember what he learned in science class about how a pulley works, and was able to drunkenly rig an exercise machine in such a way that it would hang him. It sounds too sophisicated for me. But you would be surprised what people can do when they are drunk, right? Also, wasn't Benoit's brain meant to be stuffed? So a man who is so disillusioned that he kills his family, can then rig an exercise machine to hang him?
So, Kevin Sullivan, a man who had motive, who hated Benoit, who threatened to kill him once, who knew that Chris Benoit had given more to the wrestling industry than Sullivan could in ten lifetimes, and practised satanism, wasn't interrogated and tested for his alibi. He wasn't even a suspect. But why would he be? I mean Sullivan had no reason to be jealous of Chris Benoit, except for stealing his wife, having a more star-studded career and greater success in his chosen sport, being richer and more famous. No, what is there to be jealous of there?
If Benoit's death was suicide, where is the suicide note? The police couldn't find one, but suspect suicide. In fact, they were so thorough when they looked for one, that they didn't even come across Benoit's diary, found in the trash by neighbours a week later. So much for going over things with a fine tooth comb? But hey, it is only a "wrestler". It MUST be steroid-related.
The police said that Nancy died first, then Daniel the next day. Yet, when the families were fighting in court for the estate, doubt was raised about the order of deaths. But the cops were so sure, so that should end the argument, shouldn't it?
So, no-one saw it happen. No evidence produced has been tested. No suicide note was found. No motive has been determined. Yes, I can see how they reached that conclusion. I mean, why test the evidence, explore possibilities? Benoit is dead, so job done.
I mean, it's not like it is a massive loss to the IWC. It wasn't like it was Eddie Guerrero or "Stone Cold" Steve Austin (who, if he had killed Debra when he beat her, would have all of you defending him, and making excuses). It was only some "wrestler" who wasn't very charismatic on the mike, who didn't tell a story, sell merchandise or do comedy. He was a "wrestler", not a "sports-entertainer". So, you can live with Benoit being the murderer, because it doesn't offend your sensibilities. It's not like a popular hero. It's not like it was Jeff Hardy or anyone. You are prepared to swallow whatever the media and the police tell you, because Benoit is expendable in your eyes. He is in the WWE's too. I bet Vince was relieved it wasn't Cena, or Triple H or Batista, or he would lose a "meal-ticket", and sell out less arenas. Benoit can be covered easily enough. Just program two more promos rather than the match Benoit would have done.
Get off the OP's back. He never said that Benoit didn't do it. Neither have I. But if you refuse to even consider the possibility that he may be innocent, then it says more about your opinion of him than it does about his guilt. I thought in America, you are innocent until PROVEN guilty. I mean, with Benoit dead, no evidence can be tested, and then any other party can't be inked to it. But the police got their man, that's all that counts.
If it was a family member of yours who had been accussed of murdering two other family members, then killing himself, would you just accept what the police believe, or would you want all avenues explored? Would you think "it sounds typical" (NB No-one thought that it was typical of Chris Benoit) , or would you want every avenue covered, for the sake of their memory? If Christopher Michael Benoit is even 1% not guilty of it, isn't his and Nancy's families owed a thorough investigation? A man's reputation is being trashed, and maybe deservedly so, but if there is any doubt, doesn't a possibly innocent man have the right to have his legacy restored?
