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.

that was a good movie! I liked him in Kill Bill also.. weird movies. but that is me I guess.. Like the rough ones as well as the sweet chick flicks
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..
He died having kinky sex with a young pretty girl. Leave the guy alone, he died happy.
(gawd, that was awful, sorry)
It is his family that is investigating. Do you think THEY are happy?
Good one!
:)
Probably not but its more of a money thing (if you want to be real about this) see if he committed suicide, the “grieving” family dont get no bucks. Life sucks dont it.
It would also be nice if word got out about this sexual practice - and major warnings along with it.
But if his hands were tied someone was sertainly tending to his whoo-whoo
can I say that here?
.
can I say that here?
I believe you can even say "tallywhacker."
Only on Saturdays...:)
“No mystery, the man was just trying to get his kink on”
Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like a lot of trouble to go to for...ya know...turning Japanesa...
I think you are only allowed to say hoo haw.
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.
;^)
His kung fu was weak.
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.
” I have little doubt this was a homosexual tryst of some kind “
Why homosexual ?
