- In the upcoming issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter there is a huge story on the death of the Benoit family with some revealing information. Investigators found bruises on the neck and arm of seven year old Daniel and couldn't figure out what was used to cause that kind of bruising. Authorities realized what was done after they saw a tape of Benoit applying the 'Crossface' during one of his matches and eventually it was ruled that he used a variation of the move on his son to kill him. While police said it was a choke hold during media appearances, they didn't want to make it sound worse releasing the information how the kid got murdered. Another interesting point is that recently Chris Benoit made a life insurance and included his ex wife and two kids from that marriage as the beneficiaries, leaving out Nancy and Daniel. The general theory why the murders happened is that Nancy was going to inform him that she was leaving with their son and that's when Chris went crazy. It is believed that he killed his son because he thought he would never live a good life considering his medical conditions without his parents.
