    RIP. Great actor. Anyone who owns a home should have CO detectors in the house.

    Two dogs survived though? Something’s up with this one.

    Police saying the deaths are suspicious enough to warrant a thorough search and investigation
    Either way RIP big Gene
    Just watched the quick and the dead
    Not his best film
    But he played a damn good role in it

    This is the oddest story. So the German Shepherd was in a kennel/crate in the bathroom closet, so it's gotta be death from dehydration. When the cops investigated the scene one of the other two dogs was in the bathroom with Gene Hackman's wife, and the other one was outside.

    "Both of the other two dogs appeared to be healthy." So I'm thinking they were drinking toilet water, but what were they eating? o_O
    If the dogs were taking out chunks of either of them, it probably doesn't get released; although the cops at the press conference tonight said preliminary autopsies show no trauma, so I doubt it.

    I think the most likely scenario was the wife dropped like a rock from cardiac arrest, Gene tried to rush to her aid, fell, couldn't get up, died.

    Anyway, RIP.
