Hackman and Arakawa were found deceased in their Santa Fe, New Mexico home last week, a revelation that stunned Hollywood and their longtime fans. Initial reports indicated that authorities had not found evidence of foul play. However, new details from a search warrant suggest the circumstances surrounding their deaths were concerning enough to warrant further investigation.

The Associated Press reported that Hackman’s body was found in the mudroom, while Arakawa was discovered in a bathroom beside a space heater. Investigators also noted an open prescription bottle and scattered pills on the bathroom countertop.

One of Hackman’s daughters, Elizabeth Jean Hackman, recently spoke to TMZ, revealing that the family is still searching for answers regarding what happened. While she acknowledged that carbon monoxide poisoning was a possibility, investigators have since ruled it out.

“The house is fairly modern, built in 2000,” Elizabeth explained, “but we don’t know if there were any issues with gas leaks or if there were any recent service calls to the property.”

Following a thorough examination, both the Santa Fe Fire Department and the New Mexico Gas Company confirmed that there were no indications of a gas leak or carbon monoxide exposure within the home. This ruling has only added to the mystery surrounding the couple’s sudden deaths, fueling online speculation.

Randy Quaid, who has become known for his controversial remarks over the years, took to social media to express his theory that Hackman and Arakawa were victims of a crime. The 74-year-old actor wrote on X:

“Gene Hackman and his wife are murder victims, some scum bags did it and staged it. Stop talking about the films he is in, this is how they get away with murdering famous people!”

Quaid further suggested that Hollywood elites and the media distract from such crimes by celebrating the careers of deceased actors, preventing deeper investigation into suspicious deaths. He compared Hackman’s passing to those of other famous figures, writing:

“Fake News starts generating film clips. How is it possible I know at least 6 people who have died like Carradine, Hackman, Ledger?”

The Independence Day and National Lampoon’s Vacation star then went even further, implying he had information about the alleged crime:

“I should become a special FBI agent to these investigations of Hollywood Murders! I already have some good leads on who killed Gene Hackman.”

Despite his claims, Quaid did not provide any specifics to support his assertions, leaving his remarks as speculation rather than substantiated accusations.

The investigation into Hackman and Arakawa’s deaths remains ongoing, with authorities awaiting final autopsy and toxicology reports before drawing conclusions. Law enforcement officials have emphasized that, at this stage, there is no official evidence of foul play.

Fans and colleagues of Hackman continue to mourn the loss of one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actors, remembering his legacy rather than engaging in speculation. While theories like Quaid’s gain traction online, law enforcement remains focused on gathering concrete evidence before making any determinations.

For now, the circumstances surrounding Hackman and Arakawa’s deaths remain shrouded in mystery, leaving many wondering what truly happened inside their Santa Fe home.
