I was a very happy guy, and he made me miserable. Mark further explained how Dupont had a way of sucking the life out of you.<br>Trying to concentrate on training for the Olympics made it very difficult being around Dupont. Mark feels he would have been better off had he never associated with Dupont. Wrestling wasn't fun any more for Mark, so he retired. Years later, his brother Dave went to train for the 1996 Olympics with Dupont's team. On a cold January afternoon at the Dupont estate in Pennsylvania, Dave Schultz was fixing the radio in his car when Dupont pulled up in his car and shot Dave three times with a .38 caliber pistol.<br>Losing a father figure, brother, best friend and hero has been a very trying and difficult time for Mark. The incident shocked the wrestling world with the loss of such a great contributor to the sport. Dupont was found guilty but mentally unstable and is now incarcerated, hopef
