Very sad. Loved a lot of their music.

Was he on psychotropics?
I don't think that was an issue. I think it had more to do with some special cream he was purchasing from some Amish guy.
I am in tears.Chester just told me how happy he was…..He was such a sweet and talented man……Ifeel so sad for his family,band mates and fans
Brian Elias, chief of operations for the office of the medical examiner-coroner, said the 41-year-old rocker hanged himself from a bedroom door in his home near Los Angeles on Thursday.
Bennington was found dead at his home in Palos Verdes Estates in south Los Angeles County. Elias said the body was discovered shortly before 9 a.m. PT by a housekeeper who called 911. The Fire Department pronounced him dead at the scene.
The coroner's office said Thursday Bennington's death was being investigated as a possible suicide but few details were disclosed. The case is not yet officially closed, Elias said, but it is still being investigated as a suicide by hanging.
An autopsy has been scheduled for Friday, he said.
A half-empty bottle of alcohol was found in the room but there were no signs of illegal drugs or paraphernalia present, Elias added.
I STARTED getting molested when I was about seven or eight. It was by a friend who was a few years older than me. It escalated from a touchy, curious, ‘what does this thing do’ into full-on, crazy violations. I was getting beaten up and being forced to do things I didn’t want to do. It destroyed my self-confidence.
Like most people, I was too afraid to say anything. I didn’t want people to think I was gay or that I was lying. It was a horrible experience. The sexual assaults continued until I was 13.
I took everything. I got really, really bad. Until I was 16, I was doing a ton of LSD and a lot of drinking. Then, when we couldn’t find acid, we turned to speed because it was cheap and it worked really, really well. I got really bad, really quickly. On a normal day, my friends and I would go through an eight-ball. We were smoking it in bongs – I was doing bong-hits of meth. It was ridiculous. Then we’d smoke opium to come down, or we’d take pills, or I’d drink so much that I’d shit my pants. It was not pretty.
I wasn’t leaving my house. I’d shack up in my closet in the dark and shake all day. I’d wake up and have a pint of Jack Daniels to calm down, then I’d pop a bunch of pills and go back in my closet and fucking freak out for the rest of the day. I was a mess. I was falling through windows, having seizures and going to hospital the whole time. It was fucking ridiculous. I was a total wreck.
Eventually I just gave in. I had to give up and ask for help. If I had tried to do it on my own, I wouldn’t have made it. But everybody came to my rescue.
I'm a driver and I just got to the location and his housekeeper came out and said that he killed himself.
I haven't seen him. I'm sitting in the car. His housekeeper came up to me and said that he, she found him dead.
I asked “Is he cold, is he warm?”, and she said “No, he’s dead, he’s been hanging”, and she’s talking to his wife right now.
Here is the 2 August death certificate that “confirms” that Chester Charles Bennington died by “HANGING …with belt”
