Gatti death ruled a suicide
Wife to be released
Brazilian police have concluded that former world champion Arturo Gatti’s death was by his own hand. As a result, the court has ordered the release of his wife Amanda Rodrigues, who has been held since Gatti’s death on July 12 in Brazil. (More to come)

what a load of crap,i wonder how much that cost her:mad:
:-\
The autopsy just said it could have been a suicide as far as I know.
Not saying it wasn't as you never know but wasn't he supposedly falling down drunk?
Wonder what else made them think suicide?
maybe he had swallowed a load of pills?
I'm not saying that there isn't the possibility of something either shady or inept going on but all we know is the little that's been released, its all speculation.
what about the supposed stab wounds to the back of the head?
exactly..did he try to stab himself first then say fuck it i might as well hang myself??? This is weird..Quote:

Very fishy...:-\Quote:

It was reported he was found lying on his bed they're now saying he was found hanged and suspended :-\
Here's more. I guess they are going to have a press conference sometime today.
Arturo Gatti's death ruled suicide; wife released - ESPN
Money talks, bullshit walks especially in 3rd world countries.
Wow...I dont see why he would do this beign the kind of man that he is.
Alot of changing stories involved.:-\
Certainly shocking but once the coroner report came out things got interesting. If it is true (which I have no reason to doubt), then that is very sad for his wife who obviously has been going through a lot.
Dodgy stuff indeed:scratchchin:
It's fairly cut and dry... He hit himself multiple times in the back of his own head with a blunt oblect and strangled himself with a purse strap. It's a textbook case:rolleyes:Quote:

1) no rope or nothing found on his body neither on his neck (as far as I know, these objects do not disappear once the guy dies) when they first found him, it was claimed to be a suspicious death at the time. Because when they found the body, there was nothing around his neck, nothing tied to the roof or nothing, just gatti dead in his bed apparently with strangling mark around his neck. Now, they say that they found him hanged... which doesn't match with the first stuff His wife said to have found him dead lying in the bed and didn't notice it before. Sorry but when a guy is dangling on a rope, you do not assume he's trying to have kinky sex David Carradine's way. These versions totally do not match and are totally at the opposite from each others.
2) the many contradiction that Maria Rodriguez did during her questionning
3) that she spent 10 hours with him in the same luxury room without noticing that the guy was dead when the guy now "dangles' from a rope tied to his neck.
4) whhy would somebody assume that he's been chocked with a purse in the first time if he was hung and not have, by any measure, mentioned he was "hung" and that suicide was evaluated instead of "it,s a murder and tryiung to define how many persons are implicated?"
5) why would somebody go assist to a wedding to suicide just before it? It doesn't make sense.
it doesn't take a genius to see that something doesn't work here.
...It makes it even more strange now that their story is that he was suspended... She spent 10 hours with Gatti's dead body swinging from the rafters not knowing he was dead?Quote:

There is way too much dodgy shit going on... Something's not right here.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see this is a murder...
Apparently Brizilian police work has a bit to be desired
Nice touch by the police to hold her till their check arrived.. err, till they completed their investigation ..
Hmmm... obviously I don't know the full details/injurys etc... but if what I have heard is true then surely there are better ways of killing yourself than drugging yourself, stabbing the back of your head and then hanging yourself?
Fair enough you want to kill yourself... but you wouldn't torture yourself first would you? ???
Apparently Brizilian police work would lead you to believe that... yes... yes you would:rolleyes:Quote:

Not necessarily, it sounds like a lot of the 'fact's printed in the first week were incorrect.
I'm sure those actually involved in the autopsy and investigation know better what really happened than us reading scanty internet postings.
I sure as hell don't know what happened but it's a terrible tragedy for his wife if she is completely innocent after all.
As for not noticing him for 10 hours, maybe she was asleep, maybe they had had a row and he'd gone into one room and her another.
It's possible. I knew a lad a few years ago who killed himself by setting fire to himself in his bedroom. His mum and sister were in the house, and didn't notice until the next day. He had covered himself in petrol and where he lay becuase of the heat it had burned through the floor leaving a hole. :-\
I just watch the news here in Montreal and the family has confirmed they are going to exhumed the body end they hired what is known to be the best in the domain to perform a second autopsy. The family completely reject the suicide scenario.
I hope they put a hit on her in the 3rd world country. If you can buy the police off, you certainly can buy a helluva hitman.
Biitch must of sucked a lot of fukking dikk to get out of this one.

No. No. I'm sure she had a lot of anal sex as well. She's 23 looking at life in prison in a foreign country. She would of fukked the whole judicial system to avoid that punishment. And I'm sure she did. I'm almost positive the reason she wasn't immediately released was due to her inablity to currently walkQuote:

Here's the latest, and the cops aren't really saying $hit.
Arturo Gatti's death ruled suicide; wife released - ESPN
i say that she probably gave a hell of alot of BLOWJOBS to get out of this situation.
It all reeks of something dodgy. If the police in Brazil are anything like those in Korea then it's likely a case of "Oh, here's a dead foreigner...we don't want the hassle and expense, let's close the case ASAP and if that involves spinning it a bit then so be it". You would think it would be a bit different involving someone as well known as Gatti. :-\
I don't believe Arturo Gatti killed himself.
And from what I've read neither does his family.
I was under the impression he was strangled to death with a purse strap? when did it changed to him hanging himself?
Well I can't say I am surprised by this....I am wondering how Acelino Freitas feels about this situation? He was the guy Gatti and his wife were down there to see anyway. Freitas also said they had been fighting a lot or having "troubles". I would think a guy like Acelino would carry some weight down there and if he had doubts about this case he could get something done about it.
One of the reasons that it was ruled a suicied is because he was found suspended. As if he had hung himself. I think that begs the question: why was it ever considered a homicide.
Now this poor woman, who just lost her husband, had to sit in jail while the funeral was going on.
An article that sums pretty well the oddness of that case and why some of us have legitimate doubts about this newly "suicide" conclusion:

They've done a 180. THAT'S why people think it was a homicide.
Now all of a sudden he was suspended.
