The family of David Carradine asked for an investigation after the actor was found dead, hanging naked from a bar in his hotel closet in Bangkok. Carradine was discovered with his neck, wrists, and genitals bound in rope, in what Thai authorities say may have been an act of autoerotic asphyxiation. But the Carradine family called on the FBI to investigate whether another person had been present. Carradine’s ex-wife Mariana Anderson confirmed that she filed divorce papers in 2003, accusing Carradine of “deviant sexual behavior which was potentially deadly.”
