Gene Hackman died of cardiovascular disease about a week after his wife died of hantavirus, according to the New Mexico medical examiner.

Gene Hackman, who suffered from Alzheimer’s, lived in the house with his dead wife for a week before he died.

Of the three dogs living in the house, one died because it was locked in a carrier and therefore probably starved to death. The two free-living dogs were the only ones to survive.

    Fwiw, I understood their comment as “everyone should have the right to decide when they want to die, we need death with dignity laws”

    I felt the implication was people with terminal illnesses and such.

    I did not interpret it anywhere near “we should murder healthy people against their will in gas chambers.”
