Default Why am i not surprised at this I wonder......

A senseless tragedy once again promises to turn into a fight for money.

I can see this going a few years in court unless some
common sense prevails..

The future of Canadian pro wrestler Chris Benoit's millions could come down to the timing of a horrible crime: Did asteroid-fuelled Benoit strangle his wife and then their young son before killing himself, or did the boy die first? Lawyers for Benoit's mother-in-law, Maureen Toffoloni, filed a petition last week asking a court to determine the order of the deaths, which could affect whether she gets any of the estate.

Unbelieveable that someone with those kind of assets had no will whatsoever.

especially when his death could not have possibly surprised him.

Hmmm, not sure what to think in reading the article. There`s nothing wrong with asking for a definitive determination of the order of death when it affects an inheritance. It may even be prudent to ask these questions now rather than in a few months. If the decision comes out that the wife died first and the mother-in-law drops any claim at that point, no problem. But from reading the article, I just have a hunch that this is just a preliminary step and it will probably turn into an ugly tooth-and-nail struggle. Could she file a civil suit against Benoit's estate and collect damages from him that way (similar to in the OJ case, but with the accused being dead)?

Steroids make you feel imortal . . . . which is ironic since they kill you early.
