Topic: Pro Wrestler and Family Found dead

[S-U-P-E-R]

I was watching CNN, and they were interviewing the most hillbilly-ish possible wrestler for general commentary. That struck me as kind of funny.

The kid had Fragile X Syndrome which was a much bigger problem than him being "small".

Fragile X syndrome is a syndrome of X-linked mental retardation. Boys with the syndrome may have large testes (macroorchidism), prognathism, hypotonia and autism, and a characteristic but variable face with large ears, long face, high-arched palate, and malocclusion. Additional abnormalities may include lordosis, heart defect, pectus excavatum, flat feet, shortening of the tubular bones of the hands, and joint laxity.

Shift is right on this one, I think people are going overboard when they hold it against Benoit and his wife giving the kid growth hormones. With all the gruesome and revolting facts in this case, this is not one of them. The kid had a severe medical problem and these growth hormones were given to him to help him develop as close to normal as possible.

What about the fact that his wife was reported dead on Wikipedia 13 hours before the police found the body? Foul play?

[ThePerm]

ok thats weird, i say it was foul play..theres no evidence that he did it other than he's the likeliest suspect. Heck on the news i head a couple of years ago his wife was kevin sulivans wife, and they ran off together after some adultery. hell if anyone has a motive its kevin sulivan. Heck throw some steroids into the house and make benoit look like he has roid rage.

Yeah, that is pretty creepy:

Perm - he left crazy text messages on Chavo Guerrero's and John Laurinaitis' cell phones. He also told Laurinaitis that he and his wife were at the hospital with his son Saturday evening, the day after Nancy was killed, and possibly after Daniel was killed as well. The Wikipedia thing is totally creepy, btw, but it could have just been a coincidence, as if someone was jumping to conclusions or just posting a joke entry, though it's kind of unlikely. He stole Nancy from Kevin Sullivan about 10 years ago, btw.

Seems it was a coincidence, or at least seems to be, as it has been updated with an apology that matches the IP of the original post:

I was beyond wrong for posting wrongful information, and I am sorry to everyone for this. I just want everyone to know it was stupid of me, and I will never do anything like this again. I just posted something that was at that time a piece of wrong unsourced information that is typical on wikipedia, as it is done all the time.

Nonetheless, I feel incredibly bad for all the attention this got because of the fact that what I said turned out to be the truth. Like I said it was just a major coincidence, and I will never vandalize anything on wikipedia or post wrongful information. I've learned from this experience. I just can't believe what I wrote was actually the case, I've remained stunned and saddened over it.

No evidence except for crime scene investigators, Benoit telling people that his family was really ill with food poisoning that weekend, calling in sick to the PPV, telling those that traveled with him "I love you" which was out of character, and managing to hang himself from the exercise machine. Besides those minor details, no proof whatsoever he did it.  

[ThePerm]

text messaging eh? anyone can fake text message

[MysticGohan]

This whole thing scream Foul Play. Nothing makes sense, I'm surprised no finger pointing thus far, could this truly been benoit's doing? I just don't see it. Somethings wrong and out of place.

[ThePerm]

yeah gut feeling says it feels wrong and there is more to it

[Nick DiMola]

Looks like a brand new conspiracy theory is going to start brewing here. Can't wait to see the crazy stuff people come up with to justify the situation.

In any case this situation is a tragedy, especially with the 7 year old boy dying a such a young age.  

[MysticGohan]

It just seems that somethings "ad mist"  I'm sure there's more to this than what their telling us.
