David Carradine Murdered Or Asphyxiation?

Actor David Carradine, passed away yesterday, and the rumours of the real cause of his death are swirling already. There are rumours of all kinds of foul play right down to accusations that the Kill Bill/ Kung Fu star was murdered. There are also stories that he died of accidental asphyxiation in a sex-act gone wrong.

How on earth the stories are surfacing when his official autopsy says the cause of death is not certain, is anyone’s guess.

From E! Online:

A representative for the Bangkok Swissotel’s Nai Lert Park hotel told E! News that a maid found the 72-year-old actor’s naked body hanging in a closet in his luxury suite. Now, investigators quoted in the Thai news site the Nation are revealing that there was also a rope tied around his genitals.

“The two ropes were tied together,” Police Lt. Gen. Worapong Chewprecha told reporters. “It is unclear whether he committed suicide or not, or he died of suffocation or heart failure.”

David Carradine of “Kung Fu” Found Hanged in Thailand

David Carradine, who was best known for the show Kung Fu and for Kill Bill, was found dead earlier today.

From the Washington Post:

Actor David Carradine, star of the 1970s U.S. television show “Kung Fu,” was found naked and hanging dead from a rope in the closet of his luxury Bangkok hotel room on Thursday, Thai police said. No signs were found of other people in the room and the body of the 72-year-old actor was sent to a hospital for an autopsy, police said.

This is such very sad news today and there is even talk of the actor committing suicide. This is being denied by his rep, but we smell a Heath Ledger style conspiracy a mile away - with all the undignified media speculation to boot.
