It absolutely is. I agree.
The details are out and they are creepy. I'm not sure I agree with the DA's assessments that steroids would cause this... this is something else. Certailly steroids can mess with someone's head but this isn't consistent with things we've seen from completely roided out people in the past.

--- Quote ---ATLANTA (AP) - Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his 7-year- old son and placed a Bible next to their bodies before hanging himself by the pulley of a weightlifting machine, authorities said Tuesday.
Investigators also found prescription anabolic steroids in the house, Lt. Tommy Pope of the Fayette County Sheriff's Department. He would not comment on Benoit's state of mind or possible motive.
Autopsies showed all three died of asphyxiation, Pope said.
Benoit's wife, Nancy, was killed Friday in an upstairs family room, her feet and wrists were bound and there was blood under her head, indicating a possible struggle, Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard said.
The son, Daniel, was likely killed late Saturday or early Sunday, the body found in his bed, Ballard said.
Benoit apparently killed himself several hours and as long as a day later, Ballard said. His body was found in a downstairs weight room, his body found hanging from the pulley of a piece of exercise equipment.
The prosecutor said he found it "bizarre" that the WWE wrestling star spread out the killings over a long weekend and appeared to remain in the house for up to a day with the bodies.
"I'm baffled about why anybody would kill a 7-year-old," Ballard said. "I don't think we'll ever be able wrap our head around that."
Earlier, a law enforcement official speaking on a condition of anonymity said Benoit strangled his wife and smothered his son.

What kind of scumbag would smother his 7 year old son? I can understand (but not agree) with offing the wife...I can see how an adult woman could make you go THAT crazy (but again, I don't agree!)...but a kid? Come on. The guy, evidently, turned out to be a real piece of work.
RIP wife
RIP kid
Burn in hell Chris...

Frizzle - be careful about casting stones. I don't mean to anger anyone here, he's got a an opinion and can have it...but it's real easy to cast stones and forget we ourselves live in glass houses occasionally. I guess what I'm saying is this thread isn't the place for it.
I just refuse to believe the same man I admired and respected was mentally here with us this past weekend. They prove it wasn't drugs or insanity, then I'll believe and deal with it. But something really really went wrong in his head, I believe.

RTS: Duh. Take off your fan hat and look at him as a man. I fully agree with Frizzle, that's the type of thing where you consider Benoit as having done the right thing in regard to his own life. It was only just.
