benoit01 Police Reveal Wrestlers Death Was Murder Suicide

This is about as dark as it gets. Police have released some of the details surrounding the deaths of former WWE superstar Chris Benoit, his wife, and his young son, and they are simply gruesome. Benoit reportedly asphyxiated his wife and son Friday night, and then hung himself some time Saturday.

A Bible was found next to each of the bodies, and both prescription drugs and steroids were found in the house.

Police have not speculated about a motive or what role drugs and steroids might have played in this tragedy, although a toxicology report will no doubt answer some questions.

TMZ has footage of the police press conference here.
