R.I.P.
Benoit and Son

This is the adorable child Chris Benoit suffocated before killing himself. This picture of Benoit and son Daniel was taken at a 2004 event honoring Chris.

Daniel Benoit suffered from Fragile X Syndrome, a chromosomal defect that causes autism-like behaviors, language delays and other physical/sensory problems, afflicting 1 in 3600 males and 1 in 4-6 thousand females.

46. For more information on fragile x syndrome please go to www.fragilex.org.

It was a horrible tragedy. Please try to take something positive from this and learn about the syndrome and support other families of special needs kids. Donations in the family's, or child's name would help other families get support.

47. Hey Yeah #32,

Sounds like YOU are the next one to snap! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT "HOPEFULLY YOU WILL BE NEXT" to the people/women that are expressing their opinions.

Is that a threat, wish or promise?

No wonder this kind of stuff happens with the NUTS we have out there. Damn scary!

48. The guy's a pro-wrestler. What else would you expect. No education. No class. No deceny. Takes hits to the head for a living.

I hope his son and wife rest in peace. I hope he's in HELL.

49. 32. Yeah stated "I believe you women are just upset because he killed one of your own.
Your sympathy is transparent. Hopefully you will be next".

The type of comment that could only come from a pumped up neaderthal that drags his knuckles on the ground because he can't walk upright....sounds like the kind of thing only a nut would say

56. #9 ( live it up) Please !!! you can't blame anybody but Benoit himself, he was the onily one that knew what was going on in his head. He could of been a little off or he could of been his completely regular self who knows but to point the finger else where or try to share the blame is rediculos!!!

57. #48 - From the comments written you are the only one who has been "mouthy" and hiding behind the computer. You're the one who is attacking posters on this site .... perhaps you should put down the doughnut and take a time out from your internet life and go get some fresh air :)

58. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!! WHY ARE WE GIVING THIS GUY PUBLICITY AFTER THE AWFUL, I MEAN AWFUL THINGS HE'S DONE?!?!?!?!?! I HAVE A SON ABOUT THE SAME AGE, AND THIS IS DOING NOTHING BUT HURTING ME AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE I KNOW. PLEASE TMZ, DONT TALK ABOUT THIS JERK, NON-FATHER, PSYCHO, EVER AGAIN. PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS, BUT THIS BASTARD KILLED HIS OWN SON, ABSOLUTELY NO DAMN EXCUSE FOR THAT. FORGET HE EVER EXISTED, PLEASE!

59. I agree with the earlier posts. No one knows what happened behind closed doors! I can not begin to imagine the pain of feeling that you have no alternative but to kill your own child and then prepare to take your own life! No one knows and will ever know what was in Chris's mind! We do know that 3 lives are now gone, but remember Chris has 2 other children and that Chris and Nancy leave behind families that loved them very much! Wishing Chris to hell is not changing anything. He will have to answer to God for his actions and he will decide the punishment! Sad thing is; this happens everyday but because Chris was on television and known to the public the story gets more press! i live in South Carolina; what about Susan Smith? What she did is no different except that she did not commit suicide! Instead she is in jail living off of my tax dollars!

Please let Chris, Nancy and Daniel rest in peace for the good of the family that they left behind that loves them no matter what! No more bashing Chris for his actions!!
