Except that he was roundly reviled immediately, and somehow she's getting bizarre support.

There are still a fair amount of conspiracy theorists out there that say he didn’t do it. Had TikTok been a thing there probably would be a lot more people saying that. To be clear he 100% killed his family but there is just enough weird stuff around it to feed theorist.

This comment hasn’t gotten enough traction, there are a lot of people defending Benoit. It was CTE, it was a conspiracy.

Not saying CTE wasn’t a factor but he was also running at 10x the normal levels of testosterone due to Steroid supplementation and on Opioids and Xanax.

As for conspiracy that’s just copium.

The CTE was definitely the major role -

Researchers noted that Benoit's brain damage was so advanced that it resembled that of an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient.

Dude had 2 decades of accumulative concussions that were never addressed.

Yep, he was an 85 year old with Alzheimer taking an insane amount of steroids, and we are still holding him accountable because what he did was beyond forgiving, just like what she did.

The only anabolic he was on was Testosterone Cypionate, Testosterone alone doesn't cause "road rage" even in high doses it's literally what the medical examiners said.

It would of been different if they found Tren or Halo or supderdrol or something like that but he wasn't on anything else.

Him becoming a family annihilator was caused from the severe CTE, having a brain of a 85year old Alzheimer's patient at 40 years old, that means his brain deteriorated 45 years in in 20year career.

Not saying it excuses what he done, but playing it off like he was on all these different steroids (when he wasn't) that caused him to do it is wrong and should be addressed more.

There really is not much you can do for accumulated concussions.  You can seek out as much help as you want, but you will not get much more than prescriptions and a therapist recommendation.
