Chris Benoit killed his wife, Nancy, strangled his seven-year-old son, Daniel, and subsequently committed suicide by hanging. Autopsy results show Benoit first murdered his wife. She was bound at the feet and wrists and died of asphyxiation on the evening of June 22, 2007. The couple's son, who also died of asphyxia, was apparently killed as he lay in bed on June 23, 2007. The following day, Benoit committed suicide by hanging himself with the pulley of a weight machine.
Two former WCW stars went on Twitter to remember their late friend.
Perry Saturn: "Another one of those horrible anniversaries. Chris was a great friend and I miss him."
Scotty Riggs: "Many wrestling fans remember this weekends 5 yr anniversary in their own way, I chose to miss my friends Chris, Nancy & Daniel ... All RIP."
Blue Meanie, who worked with Benoit in ECW and WWE, stated, "Today I reflect on a the 5yr ann. of the most shocking days of my life w/the Chris Benoit double murder/suicide."
