Benoit's brain was shown to have an advanced form of dementia and was similar to the brains of four retired NFL players who have suffered multiple concussions, sank into depression and harmed themselves or others.
Bailes and his colleagues concluded that repeated concussions can lead to dementia, which can contribute to severe behavioral problems[102]. Benoit's father suggests that brain damage may have been the leading cause of his crime.
