I believe it is stated above, but while I didn't find it surprising knowing his wrestling style, it stunned me when I heard his brain looked like that of an 85 year old man (I am not a scientist nor a doctor, had no idea that would happen over time).
That he killed his kid, and Nancy, I do not condone....but knowing this now, how badly destroyed the man's mind was, I will go back to what I said earlier in these posts. I do feel sorry for the guy at the same time.
I bring this up again here due to the fact that they say Chris' brain looked like an Alzheimer's patient as well. I am watching Alzheimer's and Parkinson's eat away at my own father's brain and body as I've said on here, and it's hard. In addition to this, he lost his middle brother to cancer back in the Spring - Dad is now the last living member of his family and that's got to suck. Mom is physically unable to take care of him; he just sits and stares out the window of the nursing home when we visit, never calls Mom, my wife, my sister or myself by name....talks about his fear of the kudzu outside his window getting into the building...the only thing that seems to light him up is when we take our daughter to see him (he can recall her name still, it's recent history). Problem there is I don't want her last memories of her Poppi to be frightful ones.
An example - now our little girl did not notice this, but Dad was going to be helpful and help her blow her balloon back up the other day...and his mouth was trembling so he could not even blow air into the balloon.
I didn't mean to go off thread to that extent, nor imply that we're the only family to ever go through this. Just been a hard year around here.
So to wrap it up and try to bring it back on course, for those of you who condemned him to hell without knowing the amount of brain damage, I don't resent what you said - he did kill his child. Knowing, however, that dementia had set in - in all probability - I will say again while I don't condone what he did I do feel sorry for him in a way....because in all likelihood, at that moment in time, he did not have the mental capacity to even realize what he was doing....he just snapped.
