More details are coming about the Chris Benoit murder-suicide. He apparently sent five text messages early Sunday morning between 3:53 AM and 3:58 AM to WWE co-workers before committing suicide, even sending some from his dead wife’s cell phone. According to the WWE, the five text messages were:
(sent 6/24 at 3:53 a.m.) – Chris Benoit’s cell phone
“My physical address is 130 Green Meadow Lane, Fayetteville Georgia. 30215″
(sent 6/24 at 3:53 a.m.) – Chris Benoit’s cell phone
“The dogs are in the enclosed pool area. Garage side door is open”(sent 6/24 at 3:54 a.m.) – Nancy Benoit’s cell phone
“My physical address is 130 Green Meadow Lane.
Fayetteville Georgia. 30215″(sent 6/24 at 3:55 a.m.) – Nancy Benoit’s cell phone
“My physical address is 130 Green Meadow Lane.
Fayetteville Georgia. 30215″(sent 6/24 at 3:58 a.m.) – Nancy Benoit’s cell phone
“My address is 130 Green Meadow Lane. Fayetteville Georgia. 30215″
The WWE is also dismissing any suggestions of ‘roid rage’ since Benoit was deliberate with the murders and left Bibles at the feet of his wife and son after killing them. A rep for the WWE says:
“The physical findings announced by authorities indicate deliberation, not rage. The wife’s feet and hands were bound and she was asphyxiated, not beaten to death. By the account of the authorities, there were substantial periods of time between the death of the wife and the death of the son, again suggesting deliberate thought, not rage. The presence of a Bible by each is also not an act of rage.”
This is just way too creepy to start off the morning. If you could see me, you’d see I was juggling kittens to try and alleviate the tension. You know, because kittens are cute. And super grisly murder is not.
First! God, I’m good.
I just saw an interview with him. he seemed normal and nice
thats horrible. i dont get the bibles. what does that do
Horrible. God bless all their souls.
You don’t think steroids might at the very least lead to mental disorders that would lead to an act such as this?
He was well liked and highly respected by those who watched wrestling, and those who worked with him.
Turns out he was just another screwed up individual.
I think many of us that watched you would like to know why, Chris. Guess we’ll never know.
Grisly. Not Grizzly. Grizzly means grayed hair or a kind of bear.
What a pig…. burn in hell bastard.
oh yeah~ you ‘wrestlin’ fans’ … put a spin on it… go ahead…we know you will.
#3 It’s a murderer’s way of saying “where was your God when you needed him?” And, it’s God’s way of saying “I don’t exist.”
anyone who could sit there while there 7 year old son is fighting and screaming and you dont stop and continue to kill them should burn in hell forever. people are fucking sick.
grizzly? come on. asphyxiation is practically petting!
anyone who hopes that chumps suffering from extreme vertigo who kill their family somewhere in the whirlwind should burn in hell forever:) jessica doesn’t know what forgiveness is.
when you kill a child no i dont believe in forgiveness.
It’s a shame Paris, Brittany, Lindsay weren’t in that house with him. We would have thanked him incessantly for finally ridding the world of those scumbags
Why couldn’t he have moved to Utah and married Paris, Lindsay and Britney?
D’oh, Joe Blo!
oh yeah, tipper?
the CHILDREN, my god, the CHILDRENNNNNNNN!
well, i think that adults represent actualized potential and manifested investment, which is much more valuable than potential as such, which, strictly speaking, isn’t anything yet.
so it’s much worse to kill adults.
I can’t get that damn entrance music out of my head. Maybe because it sounds like RATM’s Wake Up. That song kicked ass.
Oh, yeah, Benoit was a sick bastard.
Eighteenth.
but clearly, jessica, you’re keen on the market value of puppy-ish skin and big, infantile eyes.
you’re soooooooooooooooooo cute, babiness.
Thanks for the new news, Fish. Bout time.
Sounds like he snapped and when he realized what he had done, he felt that he had only one way out. The whole incident is tragic.
God have mercy on the souls of the whole family.
Wait. I’m confused.
How many kittens are you juggling? I can only get up to three before I start dropping them.
When Vince brought out “Ruthless Aggression”, he didn’t mean it to apply to your family!
Or in Chris’ case – Toothless Aggression.
The WWE reaction to the steroids link is just pathetic. Every other sport out there goes to great pains to distance their players from steroids. WWE apparently celebrates their wrestlers’ use of steroids. How ridiculous.
As for the deaths not being caused by rage, whose to say he didn’t strangle his wife in a fit of rage, realize what he did, kill the son, lay out the Bibles (to somehow seek foregiveness, I guess) and then kill himself. All that had to be caused by a fit of rage was the initial act. Everything else could have easily followed from that.
im just saying i just dont understand how people can get to the point of wanting to kill there child. idk im glad im not in that state of mind
To Jessica:
Please understand that this has nothing to do with forgiveness, either from God or from humans. This person snapped, went crazy, insane, loco…get it? He didn’t do it because he was mean or evil. Grow up!
I love how the WWE seems to think they’re experts on rage or deciperhing crime scenes they haven’t even seen –
“The presence of a Bible by each is also not an act of rage.”
Ohhh well in that case…
idiots!
and just because WWE thinks there was deliberate thought doesn’t mean there wasn’t rage. perhaps not “roid rage” but really, they’re just splitting hairs at this point. rage isn’t always uncontrollable.
well, jessica, i doubt you have children. you’re 19 and from windsor, new york, which, if i recall, isn’t exactly a hic*eh-ehm* republican hotspot.
think about the people you love. have you ever had a boyfriend or best friend whose little habits didn’t make your flesh crawl? if so, love’s little palpitations come concomittantly with hellfire in the veins, no?
AndresV, that IS forgiveness- realizing what you want jess to realize, no?
I’d say that it was more likely a momentary act of remorse to place the Bibles near the victims. Because Benoit was so close to the people he killed, a minor (if perverted) act of empathy seems reasonable. People who kill their family members in the manner that Benoit did sometimes do things that they think will “make it better” — dressing up a baby after it’s been killed, bathing a wife after she’s been murdered. In Benoit’s case, I believe it’s possible that the Bibles were placed there for the purpose of redeeming his wife and child’s souls. Sort of like a “last rites.”
Man, Chris was such a good wrestler. It’s really too bad all this happened.

They probably had it coming!!!
You guys I’m so fucking kidding. The whole thing makes me sick to my stomach…
#8- how can God say he doesn’t exist if he doesn’t exist?
actually i do have a kid and yes my son gets on my nerves some times but i would never hurt him. i mean i know people go through depression and things but idk i guess i would have to have those mental health issues to understand what he did. idk when i just think about someone pushing a pillow or something against there kids face hearing them scream and fight i just want to know what’s going through there head.
AndresV:
dont tell me to grow up.
There should seriously be an investigation into wrestling. Too many guys die.
If it was ‘roid rage, I can empathize. They can really start to throb when you have to sit for a long time.
#29- thats what i was thinking. And that’s just idiotic. A Bible isn’t gonna do him or them a damn bit of good after their lives have just been taken and he’s the one that took them. Too little too late.
wow, jessica. you’re so young! babies having babies. god bless you.
how could you not say he was evil and just say that he “snapped” that makes no sense at all..You have to be evil to do something like this esp to a KID, a friggin CHILD your own..
im far from a baby. i have wanted a kid forever. i am still with the father. i went about this the right way.
Jessica:
“their”
Good article on this. I never realized how many wrestlers have died recently.
click on my handle for article
He was also injecting his son with steroids because he felt he was undersized.
Why is a French Canadian on steroids famous anyway?
I don’t care if he seem to be a nice guy, this dummy, was selfish! If he wanted to kill himself, then that’s what he should have done! Why? kill them, I’m pretty sure that they would have made it! sELFISH PIECE OF SHIT, NOW HIS BITCH ASS WILL BE BURNING IN HELL FOREVER!
Um…”VeryLiberating”…you do realize pro wrestling is totally fake right? That’s it’s not a real sport? That it’s a vulgar theatre of gross buffoonery for mentally retarded proles to get excited over?
ahh whatever. i dont feel like using correct grammer when im talking to people i dont know.
oh my
no one really cares about grammar…
anyway, jessica. think about it: what if you killed your baby’s father. would you really consider telling him that “daddy went away”? or would you just kill him and then kill yourself?
i got nothing to say.
Woo. Mr. Superfish fixed the “grizzly.”
