After the discovery of the mummified bodies of Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa, the couple's daughter, Elizabeth, communicated with New Mexico authorities. In released police bodycam footage, Elizabeth expressed her wishes to cremate their dog and have it buried alongside her mother. The couple's deaths have been confirmed as natural, and the situation surrounding the discovery and arrangements is ongoing, indicating more information may be forthcoming as the investigation continues.
"I'm thinking ... cremate the dog and bury it with Betsy," Elizabeth told a deputy in the phone call.
"If the dog was wearing a collar could you save that for me?" she added.
