Shocking: New Evidence Changes Gene Hackman Death Timeline

The Role of Carbon Monoxide

The initial investigation into the deaths of Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa focused heavily on the potential presence of carbon monoxide. This colorless, odorless gas can be deadly, and its presence in enclosed spaces can lead to sudden and unexpected fatalities. However, Instachronicles has learned that preliminary autopsies conducted by New Mexico authorities revealed negative carbon monoxide test results for both Hackman and Arakawa. This finding significantly narrows the scope of potential causes of death, eliminating carbon monoxide poisoning as a primary suspect.

While the absence of carbon monoxide is a crucial piece of information, it doesn’t definitively rule out the possibility of other environmental factors contributing to the deaths. Further environmental testing and analysis may be necessary to explore alternative possibilities.

Pacemaker’s Clues: Cardiac Arrest and Dr. Michael Baden’s Insights

Gene Hackman’s pacemaker data has emerged as a pivotal piece of evidence in the investigation. As reported by Instachronicles, Sheriff Adan Mendoza stated that the pacemaker’s last recorded event occurred on February 17th. This information, coupled with the absence of any obvious signs of trauma, has led many, including renowned forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden, to consider the possibility of cardiac arrest.

Dr. Baden, a distinguished expert who has contributed to numerous high-profile cases, explained to Instachronicles that the pacemaker’s function is to monitor and regulate the heart’s rhythm. When the heart rate falls too low, the pacemaker delivers an electrical shock to restore a normal beat. The fact that Hackman’s pacemaker recorded an event on February 17th suggests that he experienced a cardiac event at that time, which could have ultimately led to his death.

Dr. Baden further elaborated on the significance of this finding, stating, “The most common cause of death in this country is severe heart disease. Coronary artery disease and high blood pressure are very common, and it’s not unusual for individuals with these conditions to experience sudden cardiac arrest. Given Hackman’s age and reported health history, it’s entirely plausible that he suffered a cardiac event at home and passed away.”

A Possible Cardiac Trigger for Betsy Arakawa

Adding another layer of complexity to the case, Instachronicles has learned that Betsy Arakawa was found in a bathroom, near a space heater. An orange prescription bottle was found open with scattered pills on the countertop. Authorities confirmed that the pills included thyroid medication, blood pressure medication, and Tylenol. This discovery raises the possibility that Arakawa’s death may have been triggered by a cardiac event while she was attempting to help her husband.

Dr. Baden, speaking to Instachronicles, offered his insights on this scenario, “It’s possible that Arakawa, upon finding Hackman in distress, rushed to get him his blood pressure medication. She may have struck her head on the way down and had some internal injury to the brain that doesn’t show up on the outside or bleeding in the inside of the brain. Or she may also, at 65, have severe heart disease and excitement can cause a trigger to the cardiac rhythm causing death under those circumstances. I think the first, that striking her head would be more common.”

The Search for Answers: What Remains Unclear

Despite the progress made in the investigation, several crucial questions remain unanswered. The open front door, the placement of the dog in the bathroom closet, and the lack of forced entry all contribute to the puzzle surrounding the deaths of Hackman and Arakawa.

The Dog’s Death

The details surrounding the deceased German Shepherd’s presence in the bathroom closet are particularly perplexing. Instachronicles has learned that the dog was found approximately 10-15 feet away from Arakawa’s body. While the exact cause of death for the dog has not yet been determined, its proximity to Arakawa and the circumstances surrounding the other deaths raise questions about whether the dog’s death is related to the couple’s demise.

The Open Door and Lack of Forced Entry

The open front door of the Hackman residence presents a significant anomaly. Instachronicles’ sources indicate that authorities have ruled out forced entry, suggesting that the door was likely left open intentionally. This detail further complicates the investigation, as it leaves open the possibility that someone entered or exited the home after the deaths occurred.

Next Steps for Authorities

In order to shed light on these unanswered questions, Santa Fe Sheriff’s Department officials are pursuing several avenues of investigation. These include:

• Conducting thorough forensic analyses of the crime scene, including the Hackman residence and the surrounding area, to search for any additional evidence that may provide clues about the cause of death and the events leading up to it.
• Examining the pacemaker data in greater detail to determine the precise nature of Hackman’s cardiac event and whether it provides any insights into Arakawa’s death.
• Interviewing individuals who had contact with Hackman and Arakawa in the days leading up to their deaths to establish a timeline of events and gather any potentially relevant information.
• Analyzing the contents of the prescription bottle found near Arakawa’s body to determine if there were any irregularities or if the medications played a role in her death.
• Investigating the circumstances surrounding the dog’s death to determine if it is connected to the deaths of Hackman and Arakawa.
