ions and local authorites are still thinking about charging or not
I think this is a bomb waiting to go off in that they are going to have some going wait a sec the feds are charging him why aren't you
I think this would go to lead people to beleive what i believe in a way that the wwe has it's hands on the investagion
I personally don't think that we'll ever really know the truth as long as the wwe has anything to say about it i have managed to find out some things that even playing devils advocate just don't make sense 2 and 2 are not adding up to 4 here
keep in mind this is my opinion only
What do you think

ATLANTA (AP) -- The personal doctor of Chris Benoit was charged Monday with improperly dispensing painkillers and other drugs to patients other than the pro wrestler.
The seven-count indictment said Dr. Phil Astin dispensed drugs including Percocet, Xanax, Lorcet and Vicoprofen between April 2004 and September 2005.
The recipients were identified in the indictment by the initials O.G. and M.J. Benoit's initials were not listed.
Astin was expected to make an initial court appearance Monday afternoon.
A criminal complaint was also filed, but was under seal. A law enforcement official close to the case, who spoke on condition of anonymity before the hearing, said the case involves steroids.
The doctor several years ago had his medical licenses suspended for writing improper prescriptions.

I too did see that on CNN news .com and also ABC news .com.they also said that the feds COULD be investigating the WWE regarding this Since several active wrestlers have come Forward and stated that Steroid use is done on a Reg basis. Hmmm V/M was once investigated for this And the wrestlers stated that he was aware of the use of Steroids being used. This could Put a Major Black Eye on the Soap Opera that they call WWE !!! V/M doesn't care He has the Money to buy his way out of this!!!

The WWE is still cooperating with authorities as far as I know. The Benoit tragedy news have been removed from the main WWE site to the coporate WWE site; the WWE is trying to distance themselves away from Benoit.
Dr. Phil Astin is a player of the black market. His license has been suspended TWICE -- in 1992 and in 2001 -- the first time was for wrongfully prescribing antidepressants, tranquilizers, etc. to his patients and the second time was for his character. Aside from his license supsended for several days to a month, he paid fines. I don't think he's ever been jailed.
Personally, if a doctor's license has been suspended and/or revoked, the guy ought to go jail instead of paying fines and a slap on the wrist. There should be no "three strikes and you're out" law to suspended M.D. licenses. The guy could lose his license, however he could still go on the black market because he "used" to be a doctor. That's a diff. topic for another time though.
The whole thing is just sad.

I really don't see what bearing this has on the whole benoit scenario. These "scripts" were from two years ago. Ask any pro-wrestler, and they'll all say they "abuse" painkillers, they put their bodies through hell. Now if they come up w/ something more recent, the local law enforcement may change their minds in pressing charges. Two years ago doesn't effect the recent events imo whatsoever.

If that is true then maybe, just maybe Chris was medicated on drugs that he was not supposed to take.
