According to reports, the property of Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa was a “culture broth for infestation” before his death.
The New Mexico Department of Public Health discovered dead rodents, excrements and nests in eight buildings in the property of $ 4 million of the couple in New Mexico, according to a report obeyed by TMZ.
The environmental assessment was carried out in March after Hackman and Arakawa’s bodies were discovered on February 26.
The feces were found in two small houses, three sheds, three garages and two vehicles, depending on the exit.
The activity of the rodents was also found in three separate garages.
The Department of Public Health determined that the couple’s main house showed no signs of infestation.
The cause of death of Arakawa was linked to the rodents.
The autopsy results revealed that the classic pianist, who was 65 years old, died of Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), which spreads from infected urine, excrement and saliva or rodents.
Arakawa and Hackman were apparently aware of the infestation since traps around the property had been established.
Hackman, who was 95 years old, died of hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Hello, Alzheimer’s disease also suffered.
The authorities determined that the legendary actor’s pacemaker stopped nine days before Arakawa’s bodies and bodies were discovered.
They were located in separate rooms, with Arakawa found in the bathroom and Hackman near the kitchen.
It is believed that Arakawa died on February 12 and Hackman on February 18.
Last month, New Mexico’s chief forensic doctor, Dr. Heather Jarrell, said it was “very possible” that Hackman did not know that his wife had died due to his mental state.
The two had married since 1991.
