Gene Hackman died of cardiovascular disease about a week after his wife died of hantavirus, according to the New Mexico medical examiner.

Gene Hackman, who suffered from Alzheimer’s, lived in the house with his dead wife for a week before he died.

Of the three dogs living in the house, one died because it was locked in a carrier and therefore probably starved to death. The two free-living dogs were the only ones to survive.

    Then how were neither of them discovered until remarkable time afterward? His wife may have died before him, but nobody noticed gene well after he was dead. All of us still seems extreme less suspicious.

      But…you can’t imagine a case where a notoriously private couple might not get visitors for a week? Visitors who wouldn’t just leave when no one answered the door, assuming they weren’t home or in the shower or something?
