Death Of Nancy Benoit Revealed On Wikipedia Early
Date Added: June 28, 2007
Story By: Ryan Gray
Fox News is reporting a chilling twist to the Benoit Family tragedy. Apparently a Wikipedia article on Chris Benoit listed that he missed the WWE Vengeance pay-per-view, "due to personal issues, stemming from the death of his wife Nancy" 14 hours before the family was found dead.

To make the situation even more chilling the IP address was traced to Stamford, Connecticut, which is of course, is where the headquarters of World Wrestling Entertainment is located.

Wikipedia volunteer coordinator Cary Bass contacted the Fayetteville police department in regard to the posting. "I chat with other editors on IRC -- Internet relay chat -- and somebody pointed it out to me on a relay chat and that it came from a Stamford connection, and that it took place at midnight Eastern Standard Time on Monday morning," said Bass. “I called and left a message with the police department.�

We should note that anything that is posted on Wikipedia records a users IP address, time, and what exactly was written on the web site, so this wouldn't have been a case of a hoax.

Authorities are now actively seeking whoever made the change.

I in no way stand by the veracity of this article.... just putting it out there to hear what y'all think.

Considering the psych profile of Chris, as offered by those that knew him best, these are not his actions.
Going over the history, trying to see if there was anyone that might have a motive for wanting to utterly destroy, Chris Benoit, I didn't have to look very hard. (If you don't already know, take a moment ad read up on the history between Chris and Kevin Sullivan.) What started out as a storyline for the show thought up by Kevin, ultimately blew up in his face. He was publicly humiliated by his then wife Nancy, when she actually did end up having an affair with Chris, and divorced Kevin so she could be with Chris and then to only have Chris beat him in the career ending grudge match, could only have left Kevins psych profile an absolute wreck. When you consider the kinds of feelings that come from events such as those, I think it safe to say that Kevin and Chris (and Nancy) did not part friends. The person that did these things would have to have a hate unlike anything most of us are accustomed to. Besides, hate and revenge are the only emotions that have such a negative end as this. Is it simply a coincidence that there is an individual with those qualities so close to the victims? On one hand I am saddened to think that Chris himself could have done this and yet I am even more horrified when I think, that there could very well be a person walking around out there who has already proven themselves capable of these violent and hateful acts, and, they are cunning enough to stage this making it appear that Chris did it himself. If the true murderer gets away with it, he will have effectively turned the tables on Chris, utterly destroying him. First, by, killing his wife and child (probably forced him watch) and then making it look like Chris did it, and second, by staging Chris's murder to look like a suicide, both of which would cause Chris to loose the respect and admiration, that even he himself knows that Chris has.
All the police need to do now is, not screw it up like those that worked on the Jon Bonet or O.J. Simpson crime scenes. Here's hoping that Law Enforcement can pass their one true test, and nail this guy.
He was killed. There was reports for weeks she was being stalked by someone and in the last few months he felt someone was out to get him and his family.
Then it was reported she was killed on friday night, his son on sat and him on sunday. i think the killer killed her and the son and Chris. there is no way a man can hang himself on a weight machine.
And there was no traces of Roids in his system.
Plus the same texts over and over. plus him calling in to work on sunday saying he wont be able to make it in cause of family emergency.
It dont sound Kosher.
I could be wrong, but thats my 2 Cents

Did Kevin Sullivan Murder Chris Benoit and His Family?



By Johnny Angel

(Former Pro Wrestling Champion)

Now known as Rev. Johnny Lee Clary

World-Wide Evangelist



The tragic deaths of Chris Benoit and his wife Nancy and son Daniel have shocked the wrestling world. The police are calling it a double-murder-suicide, but is it really? Let’s look at some facts. It has been 10 years exactly since Nancy divorced Kevin Sullivan to marry Chris Benoit. In the 1980’s Sullivan, along with his then-wife Nancy, were running a gimmick in wrestling of how they were Satanists, and Nancy was known as “The Fallen Angel.” She later became known as “Woman.” The trouble with the Satanists gimmick was it was for real, and was not a work, or fake. In the 1990’s Kevin Sullivan was the booker for WCW, and he scripted his wife Nancy into having an affair with Chris Benoit who was a member of the Four Horsemen. This made for a good angle, except, the acting became reality as Chris and Nancy actually fell in love and Nancy divorced Sullivan to marry Benoit.



Benoit left the WCW to go to work for the WWE which was then known as the WWF. It is a fact that Sullivan threatened Benoit and told him he would kill him. Yes, that was 10 years ago, but Kevin Sullivan is no dummy. He is known for being a calculating, cold-hearted individual. Today, according to a source close to me, Kevin Sullivan is a high ranking member of the Satanic Church. The police need to consider the possibility that Sullivan carried out these gruesome murders in order to have his revenge, which is what Satanists live for. He could have entered the home, with an accomplice or accomplices and held the Benoit’s at gunpoint, Sullivan could have then bound up Nancy, and made Benoit and his son watch as he strangled the life out of her. Then the next day after making Benoit and his son spend the day in agony, murdered Benoit’s little boy because of his hatred for the offspring of Benoit and Nancy. Then he could have made Benoit wait an entire day before killing him to by hanging him in the basement.



By doing this, not only would Kevin Sullivan have lived out his Satanic Church creed with his lust for revenge, but he would have destroyed Chris Benoit’s reputation which is what has happened now as the wrestling world is attacking the memory of Chris Benoit remembering him as an insane baby killer and wife killer instead of the great World Champion wrestler and friend that he was.



Satanists hate the Bible and the police have stated that a Bible was found next to the bodies of Benoit’s wife and son. This would serve as a bizarre calling card as if to either say “What good did your Bible do you?” or to throw off investigators to keep them from suspecting Sullivan and his Satanists would have been involved.



Another thing to note is the fact that Kevin Sullivan was also associated with Sherri Martel, who died just a few days before the bodies of Chris Benoit, and his family was found, and the full details of Martell’s death have not been made known as of the time of this writing.



I wonder why the police have not even considered investigating the possibility the Kevin Sullivan killed Benoit, Nancy, and their child. It is certainly a possibility worth looking in to.



Also, Benoit was going to be crowned ECW World Champion on Sunday night. Why would he murder his family and kill himself when he was going to be on top again and make lots more money?



Why would he tie his wife up before killing her? He would have no reason to, but Kevin Sullivan sure would!



Sure he had some problems with Nancy, but that was 4 years ago and what married couple doesn’t have problems? Remember also that they reconciled and as far as everyone knows there has been no other incidents reported.



One also needs to consider the fact that Benoit loved his kids and was so proud of his son that was killed. His kids wore suits and ties to his wrestling events and was proud of their dad. He was loved and respected by all those who knew him.



In my opinion, there is no way he would have murdered his family. This whole murder case has Satanists written all over it and Sullivan is a Satanist and has the motive to murder them.



I am encouraging anyone who reads this to send this to police authorities and circulate it on the internet, so these facts can be investigated, before the case is closed and Benoit is written off in history a murderer. If Sullivan is the real killer, justice should be served!



As a former Pro Wrestler myself, now a born again Christian and world wide evangelist, I am hoping and praying for justice no matter who is responsible.

Very good article, thanks for sharing!! I've seen this all over the news and it has 'somethings not right' all over it.

[graflok]

Murder/suicides are all the rage these days in the USA. Several sites I looked at
gave the statistic of 10 murder/suicides per week, mostly done by family
members. These sites always seem to play up an anti-gun angle so I
presume it's part of the gun control effort. I see it as another manifestation
of the "school shootings" scam. And, the press always jumps on the bandwagon
and pronounces the suspected shooter guilty before any real investigation has
been done.

To me, these "familicide" cases seem an awful lot like the school shootings. A
"nutter" goes crazy, grabs a gun, shoots everyone in site and then himself.
Then the media jumps in and tells us all what happened. There's no trial
because no one survived. Open and shut case. :cool:

A man authorities said killed his two young daughters before hanging himself was facing an assault charge for allegedly assaulting his wife, authorities said.


Thomas Reilly, 46, was found Thursday night by police on the third floor of a home he had been renting since moving a few months ago from Verona, where he had lived with wife Teresa and daughters Megan, 5, and Kelly, 6.

The girls were found submerged in a bathtub and fully clothed, just hours after Teresa Reilly had dropped them off for a visit. She told authorities that she had arranged with her husband to pick up the children later Thursday.

According to Montclair Deputy Police Chief Roger S. Terry, the couple had a dispute earlier in the day over what time the children would be picked up. Police went to the residence when Teresa Reilly became concerned when her husband did not answer his phone, and no one answered the door when she went to the home around 5 p.m.

So normally I would agree with you Graflok, but this other case is a drowning/hanging.

Chris Benoit mystery editor confesses: claims "terrible coincidence"
I feel incredibly bad for all the attention this got because of the fact that what I said turned out to be the truth. Like I said it was just a major coincidence, and I will never vandalize anything on wikipedia or post wrongful information. I've learned from this experience. I just can't believe what I wrote was actually the case, I've remained stunned and saddened over it....

Chris Benoit mystery editor confesses: claims "terrible coincidence"

—Continued »

In a post made at 12:26 AM EDT Friday morning to the talk page of a Wikinews article headlined as the "Death of Nancy Benoit rumour posted on Wikipedia hours prior to body being found", the user admitted to writing that Nancy Benoit was dead at the Wikipedia article page for Benoit came from information that was garnered from "rumors and speculation online." Freakishly, the post turned out to be true.

The IP Address of the individual making the apology was identical to that of the one who posted the Nancy Benoit rumor, a strong confirmation of the admission's authenticity. The lengthy apology was not signed, with the individual claiming, "I am just an everyday individual who posted a wrongful remark at the time that received so much attention because it turned out to actually happen."

Wikinews originally broke the story about the suspicious edit after receiving a tip from Wikipedia administrators. The fact the edit originated from a computer in Stamford, CT (the site of WWE headquarters) appears to be another coincidence.

The anonymous editor left a lengthy apology to the Wikimedia community, explaining, "I hope this puts an end to this speculation that someone knew about the tragedy before it was discovered."

Wikinews is continuing to follow the story, but the anonymous user has declined an interview.

Below is the full, unedited apology:

Chris Benoit mystery editor confesses: claims "terrible coincidence"


Hey everyone. I am here to talk about the wikipedia comment that was left by myself. I just want to say that it was an incredible coincidence. Last weekend, I had heard about Chris Benoit no showing Vengeance because of a family emergency, and I had heard rumors about why that was. I was reading rumors and speculation about this matter online, and one of them included that his wife may have passed away, and I did the wrong thing by posting it on wikipedia to spite there being no evidence. I posted my speculation on the situation at the time and I am deeply sorry about this, and I was just as shocked as everyone when I heard that this actually would happen in real life. It is one of those things that just turned into a huge coincidence. That night I found out that what I posted, ended up actually happening, a 1 in 10,000 chance of happening, or so I thought. I was beyond wrong for posting wrongful information, and I am sorry to everyone for this. I just want everyone to know it was stupid of me, and I will never do anything like this again. I just posted something that was at that time a piece of wrong unsourced information that is typical on wikipedia, as it is done all the time.

Nonetheless, I feel incredibly bad for all the attention this got because of the fact that what I said turned out to be the truth. Like I said it was just a major coincidence, and I will never vandalize anything on wikipedia or post wrongful information. I've learned from this experience. I just can't believe what I wrote was actually the case, I've remained stunned and saddened over it.

I wish not to reveal my identity so I can keep me and my family out of this since they have nothing to do with anything. I am not connected to WWE or Benoit at all in anyway. I am from Stamford as the IP address shows, and I am just an everyday individual who posted a wrongful remark at the time that received so much attention because it turned out to actually happen. I will say again I didn't know anything about the Benoit tragedy, it was a terrible coincidence that I never saw coming.

I hope this puts an end to this speculation that someone knew about the tragedy before it was discovered. It was just a rumor that I had heard about from other people online who were speculating what the family emergency Chris was attending to. I made a big mistake by posting this comment on his page, since all we had were what we thought was going on and nothing about what actually was going on yet, and sadly what happened turned out to be my speculation at the time. I assumed wiki would edit out my information, which they did, so thats why I didn't go back to edit it out myself.

I know I keep repeating it but I feel terrible about the mainstream coverage this has received, since it was only a huge coincidence and a terrible event that should of never happened. I am not sure how to react, as hearing about my message becoming a huge part of the Benoit slayings made me feel terrible as everyone believes that it is connected to the tragedy, but it was just an awful coincidence. That is all I have to say, I will never post anything here again unless it is pure fact, no spam nothing like that. Thank you, and let this end this chapter of the Benoit story, and hopefully one day we will find out why this tragedy ever actually happened.
