New Info in Wrestler's Death

World Wrestling Entertainment star Chris Benoit asphyxiated his wife Nancy and their 7-year-old son Daniel before hanging himself, Fayette County Sheriff's Department's Lt. Tommy Pope said at a press conference outside the Benoit home on Tuesday.

Nancy, whose feet were bound, was likely killed Friday night in an office in the home where she was discovered, said Scott Ballard, Fayette's District Attorney. Her death was followed by the boy's murder on Saturday in the child's upstairs bedroom. Daniel Benoit was found in his bed, said police. A bible was near both bodies.

"Then, maybe sometime later," on Saturday or Sunday, said Pope, "Chris Benoit killed himself by hanging himself in the basement area."
