BANGKOK – Police are speculating that accidental suffocation, not suicide, may have caused the death of American cult actor David Carradine, whose body was found in a hotel closet in the Thai capital with a rope tied to his neck, wrist and genitals.
Celebrity blogs and social networking Web sites were abuzz with news of the death of Carradine — best known for the 1970s TV series "Kung Fu." The circumstances under which he died have led to speculation that the 72-year-old actor may have been engaged in a dangerous form of sex play known as auto-erotic asphyxiation.
If you were David Carradine, which would you prefer? To have people believe you committed suicide, or death by kinky masturbation?
I have seen the Desler. I have tasted of his milk and honey.
What would be messed up is if a murder set the person up to die this way on purpose, causing police to dismiss it and the person's name to forever be tainted.
^ Not possible. Autopsies are incredibly accurate at determining the cause of death. The murderer would have to force Carradine at gunpoint to asphyxiate himself to death in such a humiliating way. In which case, Carradine would have just taken the bullet.

I also heard that he commited suicide because he found out he had Cancer....who knows?

Sucks that he died either way, especially how sudden it was.
