Chris Benoit Update

Earlier on this blog, I reported how in June 2007, pro wrestler Chris Benoit killed his wife, son, and himself triggering complex issues regarding the distribution of the estates of these three individuals, all of whom died intestate.

According to AP, Benoit’s Prescription Not Legal, cbs46.com, Oct. 8, 2007:

The amount of testosterone prescribed * * * far exceeded the normal amount for a hormone disorder he was purportedly being treated for, federal prosecutors said in new court papers.

The papers were filed in a criminal case against Dr. Phil Astin, Benoit’s personal physician, who is charged with overprescribing medication to two other patients.
