NORTH BERGEN, N.J. (AP) — Forensic experts say the evidence shows late boxer Arturo Gatti was murdered and didn’t commit suicide.
They presented a report Wednesday gleaned during a 10-month investigation spearheaded by Gatti’s former manager.
Gatti, a popular former junior welterweight champion, was found dead in an apartment he had rented with his family on the Brazilian seaside in 2009.
Brazilian police initially considered Gatti’s wife a prime suspect. But they ultimately concluded Gatti had hung himself with a handbag strap.
