Carradine mystery deepens, family seeks FBI help

BANGKOK/LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The family of David Carradine has asked U.S. authorities to help unravel the mystery of his death, amid conflicting reports about how his body was found hanging naked in a Bangkok hotel.

Mark Geragos, a Los Angeles attorney who represented Carradine's brother, the actor Keith Carradine, said on Saturday the family has contacted the Federal Bureau of Investigation and filed a formal request to have the FBI contact authorities in Thailand for further information.

"They've done it because of the conflicting reports and the nature of those reports that have given the family great pause," Geragos told Reuters.

Speculation about the death of Carradine, 72, who starred in the 1970s-era U.S. television show "Kung Fu" and the more recent "Kill Bill" movies, has deepened since his body was discovered on Thursday by a maid in the Bangkok hotel suite where he was staying while filming the movie "Stretch."

...Geragos said Carradine's family had no more information than what had been written and said in the media, which was why they were seeking the FBI's help.

yes.. and this is understandable. It would be interesting if each man/woman who engages in sex “hangings” would leave a note to that effect.. dated etc so there is no doubt, just in case..

No, the family simply wants this to be ruled an accidental death or homicide, if instead it is ruled a suicide, they will not receive insurance money.

If it was an autoerotic sexual experience gone wrong, that would not be a suicide. Even so, if a policy was taken out more than two years prior (in most states) the suicide exclusion goes away.

Back in the Eighties there were many cases of high school age youths found hanging and dead.

The MSM blamed this on Ronald Reagan, opining that the sheer terror of World War Three being unleashed by Reagan the Nuclear Cowboy, drove these youths to suicide.

When the truth emerged, there was permanent embarassed silence from the MSMs.

FWIW, I hope to die thus: live to one hundred and ten years old and be shot by a jealous husband while I’m climbing out a bedroom window.

;^)

Considering that when he was seriously considering suicide it was with a loaded handgun sitting at his desk.... I don’t think this is how he would choose to go out.

It’s not that I don’t think David Carradine would kill himself, I simply don’t believe that this was his method.

Can't say I've ever heard it phrased that way.

LOL.

Perhaps he was murdered and they staged it to look as though he was into rope tricks.
