For those who wish to see the last photo taken of Chris Benoit (hours before the events), click here. It was taken at his doctor's office by a fan. His doctor's office has since been raided by police for investigational purposes. Apparently, the guy was a crooked doc.
this story just gets more bizarre each day.
The posting referred to Benoit's wife's death. The IP address was from Satmford, Conn, where WWE headquarters is.Employees at Wikipedia.org said the posting went live on their site on Monday at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Police, however, said they found the bodies Monday at 2:30 p.m. EDT.

Senasational Sherri Martel, who died 1 week prior has a common connection with Benoit's wife's ex-husband. Sherri Martel's death was not natural causes, but foul play is not suspected.

I knew about Sherri Martel. Blue Meanie told me on myspace. She was awesome.
Wow... this whole case is getting crazier by the minute.
This is some sad ****. I loved Benoit's in-ring work. To me he's one of the best in-ring storytellers to ever perform in a business that was driven by storylines, angles, and gimmicks.
I have great appreciation for the pro-wrestling industry and it is sad that the business as a whole will take a huge blow because of one wrestlers momentary insanity, whether it be drug induced or not. It's the only scenario that seems to make sense. Everyone (including my boss) has had nothing but glowing things to say about Chris Benoit the wrestler and person. It's just so sad and so bizarre.
I really hope this case is solved properly and the right people are punished if it really wasn't Benoit. Where is Gil Grissom when you need him?
Not necessarily, Benoit was being treated for a low testosterone condition (which is treated with steroids explaining why at least some of them were in his house) by the doctor. Apparently he'd had the condition for years and, though not being a lawyer, I believe the only way for law enforcement to get hold of those records would be to have them subponaed / raiding the office on a warrant.
the connection with Martel
his wife's death being posted before it's reported from the home of the WWE (though supposedly not from anyone who is involved with the WWE)...
WTF is going on? It's going from sad to sad and bizarre
