Son's Message to Benoit: "See Ya, Pooh Bear"

The final phone messages that Chris Benoit left for his wife Nancy and son Dan -- whom he later murdered -- have just been released, and they're heartbreaking.
Click to hear
WSB-TV in Atlanta obtained the calls, which were made in the days leading up to the murder-suicide last June. In one of them, Benoit says, "Hi honey, hi Dan-Dan ... Sorry I missed you. I'll try you on your cell phone. Love you." In another, seven-year-old Daniel tells his father, "Hi pooh bear. Be back soon. Just be there, OK? Eh, pooh bear? See ya pooh bear. Love you."

Other messages indicate that Benoit's colleagues were trying to reach him on the Sunday night after the murders took place.

People have a good sense of intuition but they're usaually unwilling ot get off their lazy azzes to help anyone. Next time people if you think there is a problem , go to the guy's house. I HATE how people abandon each other in times of need. I lost all my friends that way and now I'm just mad. Thanks my friend TMz for giving me the oppotunity to vent, point out and help our fn society.

Who the hell would release this crap? That should be a private matter and TMZ should be sued for broadcasting it. I am sure the families don't want this to be all over the internet. That really sucks!!

If you idiots read the story, WSB TV in Atlanta obtained the tapes, NOT TMZ.

I don't care if this was delivered to my home on horse drawn carriage. I wouldnt' play the recording for the world to hear. Some things should be left private. TMZ - isn't Britney buying Starbucks in Hollywood or something?

It's all public when it becomes involved in a court case... unless the judge puts a gag order on the case. Remember the Simpson tapes ? UGH!!!!

I am appalled that you would post this!!!!!!!!!!!!! If the comment above is true that, an Atlanta station released this tape then that would confirm to me that you (TMZ) bought it from them! Hopefully you will be hearing from the families attorney very soon!

I was under the impression that this is or was an entertainment site. Posting that tape is really scraping the bottom! Disgusted!!!
