No, this title is not a joke. Mark Gregaros, lawyer for late actor David Carradine are asking FBI officials to look into the actor’s recent death.
As we reported here last week, Carradine was found dead in his Thai hotel room. He was discovered by a hotel maid with rope around his neck and man bits. Carradine’s lawyers and family refuse to believe that Carradine simply forgot his “safe word” during a sex game and insist that foul play is afoot. Furthermore, they believe ninjas may be responsible for his death.
Via D-Listed:
“Mark and David’s family has begged the FBI to travel to Thailand to take over the investigation, because they believe that NINJAS might have made his death look like an accident. Mark said, ‘David was very interested in investigating and disclosing secret societies.’”
This comes on the heels of a Thai paper releasing photos of what is believed to be Carradine’s body at the crime scene. The person’s face in the pictures is blacked-out. Gregaros has threatened to sue if the photo is released anywhere else.
All calls Hollywood Dame made to Michaelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo, and Raphael for comment were not returned.
Quotables:
The Blemish: “Yes, because when you find someone slumped in a closet dead with a rope wrapped around his neck and genitals, you don’t think he slipped during auto-erotic asphyxiation, you think he was murdered by a secret society of highly trained assassins who exist only in shadows.”
Gawker: “If Carradine is found to have died at the hands of fake death-jerk staging ninjas, we’ll probably be overwhelmed with sadness, as we recently tweeted our admiration for Carradine’s unquenchable thirst for kink at age 72.”
