He killed his wife and child, then himself. He is a worthless coward. Maybe I would feel sorry for him if he didn't send text messages BEFORE he committed the murders, or he didn't call the WWE AFTER. He is disgusting. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[stepmonster07]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 11:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is alleged that he and the wife were arguing over child care for their disabled son. It seems to me that he made enough money to hire help. I don't know if it's easier said than done, but there are plenty of advocates that would've helped out in some way. Also if I might add if the wife asked for a divorce 3 years ago for "cruel and inhumane treatment", it was only a matter of time before his temper would escalate. It's really sad when women take out restraining orders and threaten divorce from abusers, and then turn around and drop everything. Very very dangerous.

Thinking it can't and won't ever happen to you is probably the single most IDIOTIC and STUPID thing a person could take from this experience. <br><br>If something is humanly possibly and you are human then by all means you are humanly capable...Or maybe you're divine...I'll let you decide that one.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Leslie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think he was a coward also.  I will never for the life of me understand how anyone could harm a child.  It absolutely makes me sick that he would kill his wife and child and stay with them over the weekend, placing Bibles beside them?  Those two souls we know went on I only can hope the Chris Benoit is burning in hell for his crimes, had he been a real man he would have not been on drugs had seeked out help and his family would still be alive.  Didn't his wife also have kids with her first husband?  Anyone that feels sorry for him must have the same warped mind.  I only feel sorry for his wife and Child.  The media needs to quit sensationalizing him showing his pictures and show the pictures of the victims.  WWE made me sick showing a tribute of this mans life.  There is no reason paying tribute to a murderer.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I guess I am confused, but if the police believe the family was killed Friday/Saturday and these text messages were sent on Sunday, then how were they sent before the family was killed?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ccarterrn]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was wondering the same thing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Donna]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have an autistic teenage daughter and believe me, I KNOW how you can be pushed to the end of your rope.  The services available to help families in this situation are almost non-existent.  The divorce rate for families with autistic kids is nearly 90%.  HOWEVER, this man had the money AND the resources to find care for his son and place him in any damn school he pleased.  There are private day schools AND wonderful residential schools for autistic kids FOR THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD THEM.   In my opinion, this murder-suicide was about control and power.  Nothing else.  He was a self-absorbed coward and deserves no pity.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Karen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I believe based on the evidence found in the home and on the text messages, Benoit killed his wife on Friday, his son on Saturday and then himself after sending the text messages.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 1:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I believe based on the evidence found in the home and on the text messages, Benoit killed his wife on Friday, his son on Saturday and then himself after sending the text messages.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 1:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I believe based on the evidence found in the home and on the text messages, Benoit killed his wife on Friday, his son on Saturday and then himself after sending the text messages.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 12:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[Maybe someone should explore the fact that he used steroids extensively and what destruction they cause not only to the body and the mind. If his child is disabled steroids could be the cause of that also. I feel sorry for his family and for the sadness that all his fans feel. No one will ever understand what could cause this man to commit these terrible acts.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Elizabeth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 2:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[I understand saying you don't feel sorry for him, why would anyone he murdered his family. But you don't feel bad for the wife. Just because she went back to him does not mean it's ok to murder her. I feel for the families on both sides that are going to have to deal with this. It is a tragedy. Also how can the USA network air a 3 hour tribute to this man, when he murdered his family, whether he was a great star or not, he's on the same level as a drug dealing alcholic that kills his wife. A murderer is a murderer.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[diggatre]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 1:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dead Wrestler's Final Text Messages]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/06/28/dead-wrestler-s-final-text-messages/</guid><description><![CDATA[A COWARD IS SOMEONE WHO IS SHAMEFULLY AFRAID OR LACKS COURAGE.

Rumors that he had the Mafia smuggle steroids into the States for him. With Eddie & Chris being very close friends,perhaps Chris got too deeply involved into something he shouldn't have. And perhaps thought this was an "easier" way out.........<br><br>Whatever caused him to do the horrible things he did,it is indeed a great loss of life. As much as he may be hated for what he's done,and however you personally feel about the whole ordeal,he was a great entertainer. One of the very best in the biz. And THAT aspect of Chris Benoit I DO admire-and will be missed.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stone's Throw]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 2:04PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
