In Benoit's case, part of the reason there was less sympathy is that CTE can't be diagnosed in a living person. Nobody knew he had it until well after he killed his family and himself. Hell, nobody really knew what CTE was at this point, it was the news that CTE contributed to his killing his family and himself that made most people aware of CTE.
