Autopsy Finds Carradine’s Death Not A Suicide

Autopsy finds Carradine’s death not a suicide Independent investigator says more information needed to rule on cause

LOS ANGELES - The forensics expert hired by David Carradine’s family has concluded that the “Kung Fu” actor did not commit suicide, but said Thursday that more information was needed from Thai investigators before the cause of death could be determined.

Carradine’s brothers, Keith and Robert Carradine, each read part of a prepared statement to reporters from The Associated Press at a Los Angeles hotel. In their first public remarks since their older brother was found hanging in a Bangkok hotel room closet last week, they thanked supporters and asked for privacy.

“This is a devastating loss for our family and we greatly appreciate the compassion pouring in from all over the world,” Keith Carradine said.

They also released a statement by Dr. Michael Baden of New York that indicated a second autopsy determined Carradine didn’t kill himself.

“However, to reach a final determination as to the cause and the manner of death we must wait for further information from Thailand as to the scene findings and the completion of the crime laboratory and toxicology studies that are still being performed,” Baden’s statement concluded.

So apparently Carradine wasn’t hung.

FEH! Another dirty old man just like Letterman. Why should we give a rat’s ass about how the perverts die?

Which would be worse? To be known for dying by suicide, or by auto-erotic-asphyxiation?

She killed him with the Five Palm Method in Kill Bill. In reality, it was the Single Palm Method that killed him.

A woman who was married to David Carradine for 15 years said that he liked to tie himself up and was quite good at it. He made a mistake the last time he did it, and that, as we now know, was the last time he would ever do it.

Except of course that Baden didn’t “perform” an autopsy but rather has read reports about the “scene”. Note that the key information is still at the lab. These pay for play guys will say anything

Obviously some conspirator killed him, hung him in the closet with his privates wrapped in ropes, threw a woman's wig and sexy nylons on him...right..

I choose: living to a ripe old age and dying by natural causes.

Where was that choice in your multiple choice question, huh?
