shardian:
I have done a little research into it to. Maybe some kind of public awareness about this can have a positive effect on other families dealing with this.
ChadTower:
Public awareness would really, really, really help. WWE is going to distance itself as far as possible, though, and they are the ones who would have to lead the awareness efforts. Can't even really blame the WWE for doing that, either, since their primary responsibility as a publicly traded company is to protect stock value. That's just the law.
Having thought this through with some of the info I have now after doing this reading... I think I have a couple basic theories. I suspect he may have thought the boy was better off passing now before his condition deteriorated too far and had to live a long life of suffering. Like putting a dog to sleep. He comes to this conclusion after being home for several months and after several months of hard fighting with the wife over the yearly cost of hundreds of thousands to care for him or put him in a home... with no end in sight, after having busted ass literally for decades to build a retirement. He figures he's going to have to tie up the wife to keep her away while he does it to ensure the boy passes peacefully. When he goes to tie up the wife, something goes wrong, she gets hurt. Now there's no turning back, the wife ends up dead, he does what he intended with the boy. It all worked out wrong, it was different in his head, and now he's a double murderer, of his family no less. He has to take his own life now, the future is toast and frankly he deserves it.
Can't say any of that is justified, rational, or sane, but at least it gives potential answers to a couple of the "why" questions. I'm sure the drug use over the years was a major factor in his state of mind through the whole thing as well.

So if he wouldn't have accidently killed his wife and succesfully killed his kid, everything would have been ok? His future wouldn't have been toast if he just killed his kid, and not his wife?? WTF??
I think you're completely reaching on the whole thing considering you don't know the Benoits and weren't in their house for the last few moths.
ChadTower:
Hey, I never said it was a good plan. Maybe he planned to pin the boy's death on the wife.
If you think I'm reaching so hard, do you have a better theory?
FrizzleFried:
With all the "my wife's sick and throwing up ...so is my kid" phone calls etc, sounds to me like he was plotting a way to get away with this ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Once he determined he was screwed, he took the cowards way out and offed himself.
