Chris Benoit and family found dead

[dekadentdave]

Marc, I'm talking about your statement that his buddies thought he was joking. It's not like he said "Guys, I'm not coming in to work tonight because I'm going to stay home and kill my family." I'm sure his roid pals would have a good chuckle over that. Point is, there would be great concern for the welfare of him and his family. I don't think anybody would not take what he claimed as anything less than serious.

My my. You have alot more faith in people than I do.

ie Dennis Wilson. Out with a bunch of friends drinking. Goes swimming and doesn't reserface. Drinking buds all think its a joke. 10 minutes go buy. 20 minutes go buy. Its not until he has been gone for 45 minutes that someone thinks "gee. maybe something is wrong".

Like I said. You have way more faith in peoples ability to think the unthinkable.

Oh, so you think that most people would think "My wife and child are coughing up blood so I can't come to work" and interpret that statement as " Hmmm.... well... that's ususual. Have a nice day off."

Well, just to put things in a bit of perspective, I tell my friends I'm gonna kill my wife all the time.

So had I texted a close friend that, it is highly unlikely they would call the cops.

Thats exactly what I think. yes.

I thought it was a neighbor how called the police.

I'm pretty sure I had read that the WWE became concerned about the missed match, the coughing up blood, and the weird text messages and asked the authorities to check in on him... I could be wrong, but I'm just sure I read that on one of the news sites.

You're right Lonnie, it was WWE officals that made the intial call.

Benoit just sent me a text that he ended up here. ​

A bowl of speghetti?

Can you post the article Chase? If thats the case I don't where I got the idea that it was a neighbor.

World Wrestling Entertainment said on its Web site that it asked authorities to check on Benoit and his family after being alerted by friends who had received “several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning.”
