LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- David Carradine's wife and his manager disputed suggestions that the actor's death was a suicide, while rescue workers and police in Bangkok, Thailand, said the actor's neck and genitals were found bound with rope. David Carradine was the star of the 1970s TV series, "Kung Fu," and appeared in more than 100 films. After Carradine's body arrives back to the United States this weekend, an autopsy ordered by Carradine's family will be conducted, according to the actor's co-manager. "They're doing everything possible to get to the bottom of what really happened," said Carradine's co-manager Tiffany Smith.
