BENOIT'S FATHER BAFFLED BY WRESTLER'S SUICIDE
LATEST: The father of CHRIS BENOIT has broken his silence over the wrestler's death, insisting he "cannot understand" why his son would murder his family and then commit suicide.
Detectives believe 40-year-old former World Heavyweight Champion asphyxiated his wife Nancy and seven-year-old son Daniel last Friday (22Jun07) and Saturday (23Jun07) respectively, before hanging himself on Sunday (24Jun07).
Anabolic steroids were found at the wrestler's home - the scene of the murders - suggesting the drugs played a role in the family's deaths.
But Michael Benoit is baffled by his son's apparent actions and hopes the results of the toxicology tests will go some way help them understand why the 40-year-old behaved the way he did.
He says, "We have no understanding of why it happened," Michael Benoit told the Associated Press by phone from his home in Alberta, Canada. "We need some time to gather our thoughts and wait and see.
"There's still more information that's going to come out from toxicology tests that will give us some understanding of why this happened."
