Linkin Park Singer Chester Bennington Found Dead in Apparent Suicide
Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington was found dead on Thursday morning, police confirmed to Variety. He was 41.
At about 9 a.m. on Thursday, police responded to a call of a dead body in a Palos Verdes Estates (a suburb south of Los Angeles) home, the location of Bennington’s private residence, law enforcement said in a statement. He appeared to have died by suicide from hanging, TMZ reports.
The case is under investigation by the L.A. County Coroner Office. Variety has reached out to his reps for more details. Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda tweeted on Thursday afternoon, “Shocked and heartbroken, but it’s true. An official statement will come out as soon as we have one.”
What a shame how great artists fell into alcohol and drug abuse. I read he was abused as a child. Pedophilia is a plague and there aren't punishments hard enough for these predators, nor a strong support for their victims.
Yes he was ! he take the wrong way
