WWE Comments On Chris Benoit Brain Study

There is a long article in today’s Los Angeles Times on the Sports Legacy Institute’s study on Chris Benoit’s brain. In the article, WWE issued the following statement in response:

"Today's attempt to explain that Chris Benoit's murder of his family was possibly caused by some form of dementia as a result of alleged concussions is speculative. WWE can certainly understand the anguish of a father having to deal with the fact that his son allegedly murdered his wife and young son, as Chris Benoit is alleged to have done. We respect the desire of that father to do whatever he can to find some explanation as to why his son might commit such horrible acts."

WWE spokeswoman Jennifer McIntosh was quoted in the article saying, "no medical records of [Benoit] suffering a concussion. We don't have any answers as to why Chris did what he did. We're still awaiting the law enforcement investigation to be concluded."
