Do you think the WWE is fair in distancing themselves from Benoit?

Instead of RAW, WWE aired a tribute episode to Chris Benoit on July 25, 2007. However, at that time, the details of his death were not revealed. When it was apparent that Benoit had killed his wife and son, later killing himself, WWE began distancing themselves from the wrestler and removing his merchandise from sale. Do you think this is fair considering all of the contribution Benoit had brought to the WWE?
