I would bet that the wrestlers in question never actually visited his office.

Benoit was there the day before he killed his wife.

ChadTower:

What a crappy story.  It leaves out statements made such as "An elevation of that ratio doesn't translate into something abnormal in their behavior" and "the drug levels were at normal therapeutic levels for someone in pain".

What is far more important, IMO, is that they also said that they cannot test for Fragile X post-mortem.  That means we'll never know for sure if the kid had Fragile X.

ChadTower:
So, after going through reports a bit more, this is what I take out of it as key:

Daniel was sedated when killed with a drug that would never be given a child (Xanax).

Chris was found to have hydrocodone at therapeutic levels.  As a pro wrestler, a standard painkiller is expected.  He was found to have Xanax (antidepressant) at standard levels.  That is to be expected of a man with low testosterone levels.  He was found to have a high enough test-epitest ratio that he had to have been injecting testosterone.  That goes hand in hand with depression and is the expected pattern for someone who had used anabolic steroids over the long haul.  When not taking them, testosterone levels are very low, and injected testosterone is the solution.  Plus he had a prescription for injectable testosterone.  No evidence of "other" steroids or GHB in his urine.

Sounds like he had been off the juice for a while and was dealing with low testosterone, physical pain, and depression.  To me, what this says, is that while the long term use of steroids was a contributory factor, it would be no more of a factor than stress, untreated concussions, exhaustion, possibly Daniel's condition, marital problems, etc... the guy just lost his mind.  Maybe the media will pick that up and go with it but I suspect that they will ignore the story now that they can't spin a sexy steroids bowtie onto it.

There is a secondary issue, though, that may not be as easy to see.  He was getting a ten month supply every 4 weeks... if that wasn't in his body, and wasn't in his house, who was he giving them to?
