Geez....

Yup... I'm quoting myself now.

I kinda figured that there might be more to this than originally reported.

Here is some more (maybe true, maybe not... hmmm) light on the topic:

Bill from Kill Bill killed by thrill

by PETE SAMSON

KILL Bill star David Carradine was found dead in a Bangkok hotel wardrobe yesterday - sparking fears that he accidentally killed himself in a sex act.

A horrified maid discovered the 72-year-old actor's half-naked body hanging from a curtain rope inside the closet.

One cop said the cord was attached to the neck and genitals of the star - also famed for his role in the hit 1970s TV series Kung Fu.

Thai police would neither confirm nor deny suggestions that Carradine, who played Bill in two Kill Bill films, was attempting a practice designed to boost sexual pleasure.

A spokesman said: "We've nothing to add at this stage, apart from the fact that we do not believe anyone else was involved."

Some reports claimed the star died of natural causes or suicide.

But his manager Chuck Binder said he believed it was an "accidental death" and called the news "shocking".

He said: "He was always full of life, always wanting to work - a great person."

Suite
Five-times wed Carradine was staying in Suite Room 352 of the Park Nai Lert Hotel in Bangkok, which has a phallic shrine in its grounds. He had been shooting a movie titled Stretch in the city.

The actor, whose other films include The Misfit Brigade and The Long Riders, failed to turn up for dinner with the film crew on Wednesday night and they assumed he was resting. But at 10am yesterday the chambermaid discovered his body.

So hmmm... if that is true then DAYUUM. Dave was trying to get his freak on at 72 like that? Wow... I guess if you gotta go... you gotta go...

Autopsy finds David Carradine did not die by suicide

June 11, 2009
FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES — The independent forensics expert who examined David Carradine’s body says the actor didn’t commit suicide, and Carradine’s brothers are asking for understanding as Thai authorities investigate.

Keith and Robert Carradine say they’re grateful for the outpouring of support during what they call a “profoundly painful time.” In a statement read Thursday in Los Angeles, they also thanked U.S. and Thai authorities for their work.

The family also released a statement from Dr. Michael Baden, who said Carradine’s death wasn’t a suicide. He said further information from Thailand is needed for a final determination.

Carradine was found dead a week ago, hanging in a closet of a Bangkok hotel room.

Baden was the expert who found that Drew Peterson's third wife, Kathleen Savio, did not die by accident in 2004. Baden concluded in a private autopsy requested by the Savio family that she was victim of homicide, for which Peterson has been charged.

Man... this is really going around in circles now.
