July 10, 2007 Observer Newsletter: Chris Benoit double murder suicide part 3

The shocking double murder-suicide involving Chris Benoit, including the death of wife Nancy and son Daniel, took numerous twists and turns over the past week including the arrest of Dr. Phil Astin, heat put on World Wrestling Entertainment, and an unprecedented amount of mainstream media coverage of the industry and the ridiculous human toll it has taken over the past decade. There is only one thing certain. There will never be an answer, or any kind of explanation of what caused Chris to do what he’s believed to do. If the two were arguing, which is still the prevailing theory, only they know what it was about. Nancy did reach out to one of her best friends the prior day and give her a list of things she was concerned about, did offer a premonition of her fate, but she was still home the next day. But whatever was discussed, only two people knew. Perhaps Nancy didn’t even know what caused Chris to snap. Plus, the nature of all three deaths were bizarre to say the least.
