Summary

Tom and Ben are BACK for another instalment of I Could Murder A Podcast - this week, the boys turn their attentions to the extremely dark Chris Benoit Family Murders (double-murder, suicide).

Did Benoit pre-plan and coordinate the sequence of murders or did he act in a blind rage? What innocuous substances were found in Benoit and his family’s systems after the murders? Were there any warning signs or cries for help in the build up to the weekend that could have prevented this from happening? Is there any potential to the rumours that Benoit was framed? And what impact did this have on the world of professional wrestling?

Tune in and all will be revealed!
