76. Daniel Benoit was born February, 2000. That means he would have been a little over 7 1/2 years old when he entered First Grade; and 8 years old by the time he finished. That certainly sounds like some type of learning disability was involved to me.

77. Pressures in life take its tole on the best of us. You never really know what final button will be pressed to snap you. Some can take alot, others, sink into drugs or depression. If his wife and child were sick and throwing up blood, why didn't he call emergency line and not text a friend? Too many questions still unanswered to give judgement.

78. I have been reading your comments and this is what i have to say, we as people have a tendency to want to place blame for every thing that happens on someone or something. In reality, why can't we call it as it is? This man,Chris Benoit, was human just as the rest of us. Eventually the truth will be known,whether it will be told or not, we don't know. The fact is no matter what troubles this family had, there was help out there. A lot of times we chose not to seek help because of our pride. This man killed his family because he chose not to get help. That alone is selfish. Regardless of the outcome, one thing will remain the same, there are three people dead. Each one of them had a purpose in life, each one of them had dreams, and a destiny that was taken from them. They each have a family left behind to live with the horror that their child,sister,brother is gone and wondering if there was anything that they could have done to prevent this from happening or how are they going to get beyond this? it is not our place to speculate on what happened or to place blame, but truthly, be praying for their families, that they are able to recover and to get beyond this. Because ,no matter what the findings(whether they were murdered or it was murder-suicide), the one thing that remains is that these families still lost a loved one. I'm not the investigator, so who am I to say what happened? I can pray for them.

79. I have known Chris and Nancy both since 1983 before they were married to each other. Chris would of never done what he is being accused of. I think they should continue looking for the real killer or killers. You can not convince me that Chris hung himself with the 240 pounds on a weight lifting cable when he doesn"t weigh much less than that himself. How could he have tied the cable to hold his weight himself? Also you can not make me believe he tied Nancy's feet and hand together before killing her much less hurting Daniel. They were both the world to him along with megan and david.

80. "These horrible murders do not sound like the actions of the man everyone knew. "

This statement caught my eye. Just because you watch the man on television and perhaps shake his hand as he walks through the crowd does not in any fashion mean you know him. Lets be clear. It means you know ABOUT him, but even then all you know is what you're shown.

All there is to go on at the moment is speculation, and its running rampant. There has even been a wide spread theory that Benoit was told by his wife that his child was not his and that she'd been deceiving him all these years. Though it might explain the "snap" he experienced again its still no more than speculation.

If we're going to speculate how about this? Chris comes home to find his wife in a manic state threatening Chris that if he should go away one more time and leave her home with the child that she'll kill the child and leave. An argument ensues that literally tears benoit apart. In a rage, she kills the child. Benoit in GREIF kills her and then under the weight and guilt of taking the life of the woman he loves, gets drunk and takes his own life as well.

Theres some speculation.

81. With a posting on Wikipedia just hours before the madness occured, one must wonder if it was planned or actually a murder. After all, the Wikipedia posting was from Conneticuit, just miles from the WWE okkices....who would have known??

But, reality is that 3 people are dead....Rest in Peace Benoit family. Only God can judge you.

83. I have fallowed every storyie I personaly do not think it was chris. Think of it this way.
Chris was out on friday means Nancy home on friday were was the kid on friday. Nancy could have let some one in. That The family new. The killer could have killed Nancy late friday night after she talked to chris he was on his way to wrestling. chris did say he had to go bck home. Chris went home found His Wife dead. Lets Say killer leaves house with a set of keys. Killer can get in any time with keys. His kid Still alive on sat. okay let see Chris did not go to police he was scared he gets blame kid go to childrens aid chris go to jail. chris trys to think of a way out so chris puts kid to bed. Chris go and prays to god for help. he places a bible while talking to god. Go out of Room Check on his son his son is sleeping. Chris goes down stairs falls a sleep Killer come back in and kills his son. Chris wakes up goes and make breckfast goes get son .Chris finds his son dead he gets a bible and then prays to god for help. Mean while killer is hideing in the house.so Chris has to think harder now chris goes to the safe is part of the house grabing 2 cell phones his and nancy sending out tex messages to friends asking for help. If killer is still in house and hear talking killer could kill him faster. tex you do not hear. they can come out with 911 why can they not come out with tex as well. most people do not kill there own family's then ask for help then kill them selfs. Beside real Candian People belive in getting divorice. Chris wife is still alive did he kill her or his fist kids no then stop blaming chris and look at all real evdance and go over stuff you may have mised out on facts and hard edvance. Look for Keys Cell phone bills and foot prints also finger prints. Dirty dishes prints. prints off of wait machine rope killer could have killed him and raped it around chris neck making it look like that ... How many doors did he have in total to get in and out of house are all keys on both rings did they have a spare key out side hiding in case of emgerancy. there is a lot more there that meets the eye. if killer was hing in house did he leave hand prints on door hadles in clost area. There has to be a killer. Not Chris I say all 3 was murderd.
