Rodent Infestation Linked to Gene Hackman's Death Investigation
New revelations have emerged regarding the tragic deaths of Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa, who were found dead at their Santa Fe mansion on February 26. A health assessment conducted by the New Mexico Department of Health revealed that the property was infested with rodents, with droppings found in multiple outbuildings, including garages and sheds. Arakawa, 65, died from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, a disease transmitted via contact with rodent waste, while Hackman, 95, succumbed to complications related to heart disease and Alzheimer’s. Investigators noted that traps were found throughout the property, indicating the couple was likely aware of the infestation. The primary residence was deemed low-risk for rodent exposure, but the risk assessment highlighted the presence of live and dead rodents in several outbuildings. Experts suggest that Arakawa may have contracted the virus while cleaning these areas shortly before her death.
