The Monster's Father Speaks!

Chris Benoit‘s father has broken his silence for the first time since his son murdered his family and committed suicide.

“We have no understanding of why it happened,” Michael Benoit said on Friday from his home in Canada.

Speaking to the Associated Press, he added, “We need some time to gather our thoughts and wait and see. There’s still more information that’s going to come out from toxicology tests that will give us some understanding of why this happened.”

Michael said the test results, which could take several weeks to be completed, “could give us closure.”
