Gene Hackman, 95, was found dead alongside his wife Betsy Arakawa, 65, and their dog in Santa Fe. The family is currently awaiting toxicology results to clarify circumstances surrounding their unexpected deaths. Tim Hackman, a relative, emphasized the need for caution against speculation, focusing instead on a positive outlook until more information is available. Initial police investigations suggest the couple may have passed away days or weeks prior, with no external trauma found on their bodies, raising questions about the nature of the incident, while a state of decomposition was observed.
We're waiting on toxicology. That will tell us everything. It's hard to theorize. There are lots of theories out there and I don't want to speculate. It's easy to speculate negative theories.
Despite all of the questions surrounding the couple and their dog's deaths, Tim added that the family wants to keep it positive for now and when we know the truth we will deal with it.
Sheriff Adan Mendoza revealed that based on their body and other evidence on the body, it looked - it appears [that they were deceased for] several days, even up to a couple of weeks.
Betsy, meanwhile, was found on the floor of a bathroom near the home's entry, surrounded by prescription pills. The pianist had obvious signs of death, body decomposition, bloating in her face and mummification in both hands and feet.
