He was a great actor
I saw one movie in the theater with my dad, “ A Bridge to Far” which was my first Hackman movie
RIP

Gene Hackman: Hollywood legend dies aged 95
The bodies were decomposing indicating they were all dead for sometime. He must've been estranged from his daughters, as no one did a wellness check.

My favorite Gene Hackman movie was Hoosiers. My wife and I went to the movie on our first date.

They now consider the deaths suspicious and no carbon monoxide detected. They were in completely different rooms and there were a bunch of pills strewn about in the bathroom by her. The dog was in the closet. Very odd.

That was my 1st thought but the Police interview said not a gas leak. Looks like pills were involved with the wife dying 1st. Still more questions than answers.

Surprised that someone of his status did not have daily maid service.

Would think that they would have needed some sort of help

Some here say “nope” to a gas leak cause. How do they know???

Reports indicate that they had died 2+ weeks ago. Perhaps there was a leak back then but remedied or passed shortly after.

I love the experts here…. Of course we can have our suspicions or opinions, but…,

Death from CO has been ruled out by autopsy lab results.

One of the most underrated actors ever. Even if the movie sucked, his character was played to perfection.

Maybe one of them died from a heart attack and the other one followed from a broken heart. While the poor pooch died from lack of water while in its cage.

I don't know how pacemaker monitoring works, but a report claims his last "ping" was more than a week ago.
