Man I hate to be that guy but the first thing I thought of when I heard this news was CTE. Dude was a violent runner.

I guess he struggled with mental health. Not familiar with all the details.

This makes me sad, and yes I don't think there is any question that CTE is a factor in this. Marion was a head basher and an extremely violent runner as I am sure most know.

According to the autopsy report, a bathtub faucet in Barber’s apartment was running when officers arrived and the unit’s thermostat was set to 91 degrees with the heat set to “on.” “Mr. Barber was known to exercise in sauna-like conditions,” the coroner wrote in his report.

wow

Pretty sad. That’s a crazy way to die.
