DAVID CARRADINE - SUICIDE RULED OUT BY CARRADINE FAMILY INVESTIGATOR

SUICIDE RULED OUT BY CARRADINE FAMILY INVESTIGATOR

An independent autopsy on DAVID CARRADINE's body has ruled the actor did not commit suicide.
The Kung Fu star was found naked and hanging in the closet of a Bangkok, Thailand hotel room last week (4Jun09), prompting rumours he had taken his own life or died during a sex game that went wrong.
The Carradine's family members have insisted he would never have killed himself, and they hired a forensic expert to examine his body and the circumstances surrounding his death.
The results were announced by Carradine's brothers Keith and Robert at a press conference in Los Angeles on Thursday (11Jun09).
Keith Carradine said, "This is a devastating loss for our family and we greatly appreciate the compassion pouring in from all over the world."
The brothers also released a statement from New York-based doctor Michael Baden, which reads, "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."
