Nearly a week after Gene Hackman, 95, and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, were found deceased in their Santa Fe home, authorities continue investigating the mysterious circumstances.

Hackman’s body, partially mummified, was discovered in the mudroom, while Arakawa was found in a bathroom beside a bottle of pills. Initial reports ruled out carbon monoxide poisoning, deepening the mystery.

Hackman’s pacemaker recorded its last heartbeat on February 17, nine days before his body was found. Neighbors described the couple as highly reclusive, rarely seen despite living nearby for years. As speculation swirls, Hackman’s family and authorities seek answers to the legendary actor’s tragic passing.
