Yes they must have other info?

From TMZ

Daughter thinks it was a gas leak
(carbon monoxide poisoning)

Crimson Dynamo 27-02-2025 03:08 PM

Vanessa 27-02-2025 03:11 PM

Not everyone has it sadly.
And you can't smell it. So you would have no idea if there was a gas leak

Yes but maybe the battery ran out?

Crimson Dynamo 27-02-2025 05:08 PM

I literally replaced mine about 3 weeks ago. It started peeping on the hour and that means change the battery

arista 27-02-2025 05:10 PM

Yes, I have an Alarm

Great to have if a Carbon Gas leak happens

[Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa were found
mummified at mansion with pills strewn in bathroom]



It gets worse

arista 27-02-2025 05:29 PM

[Gene Hackmanband his wife Betsy Arakawa were
found partially-mummified
at the couple's $3.3 million mansion,
with pills strewn in their bathroom.

An arrest warrant obtained by DailyMail.com
revealed Arakawa, 64, was found decomposed
with bloating on her face and mummification
in her hands and feet.

Sheriffs said Hackman was found to have the
same signs of decomposition as his wife.]

Crimson Dynamo 27-02-2025 05:33 PM

what on earth?

arista 27-02-2025 05:33 PM

[Mummification occurs when a person's skin
and tissues are preserved after their death.
While most associate it with ancient
Egyptians wrapping the corpses of
pharaohs in bandages,
it can also be achieved
if a body is left in a place with cold,
dry air where bacteria struggles to grow.
Santa Fe is known to enjoy such
a climate during winter.

Two maintenance workers called
Roland Lowe Begay and Jesse Kesler discovered
the bodies of Arakawa and her retired Hollywood
star husband at their luxurious million
Santa Fe mansion Wednesday
at 1:46pm Mountain Time.

The identities of Hackman and Arakawa
were not released for nearly 12 hours,
with details of how the couple were found now
offering a possible explanation for the delay.

Begay and Kesler told investigators they
hadn't seen them for two weeks.
Both appear to have been dead
for some time.


A detective noted in the search warrant
that 'the death of the two deceased
individuals to be suspicious enough
in nature to require a thorough search
and investigation.'

Arakawa was discovered lying on the
bathroom floor of the couple's home
on her right side, with an open
prescription bottle of pills scattered
across a nearby countertop.
No indication has been given as
to what the pills were and whether
they had been prescribed to
Hackman or his wife. ]

people take out the battery to stop that beep then forget to replace?

Cherie 27-02-2025 06:17 PM

if she was found with pills beside her, it sounds like he might have passed away and she killed herself.....where were their family, how very sad

possibly, but would they both have died at exactly the same time?

You don't kill yourself in your 60s when a 95 year old man dies (unless you did something nefarious) plus she was about to inherit a fortune
