Perhaps Chris Benoit was not a monster after all. It's already been shown that he was not on "roid rage." But that doesn't go far toward explaining why he came home one day and killed his wife and child, and then himself. Well there's a new report floating around, released by his dad and apparently confirmed independently, that Benoit had significant brain damage from the years of concussions he suffered, and that his brain at the time of the deaths resembled "an 85yr old Alzheimer's patient."
It's not an excuse. It's not even necessarily a reason. But for those of us that can only possibly accept "he was not in his right mind" as the only explanation, this lends a little more validity to that argument.
