Yrah, like we're going to believe what a cat says about a dead dog. You stay out of this!

Not an expert on CO poisioning but seems strange the bodies were found in I assume not in close proximity as people don't usually have the kitchen near the bathroom and I doubt he has a small gaff. If he died first maybe she went to bathroom for meds and die there. But if she was still concious why no 911 call ?

The wife seized the drugs and was dancing in Gollum at Mount Doom style celebration when the dog farted and she was overcome by fatal Hydrogen Sulphide poisoning. The dog scoffed up some of the drugs and died. The other two dogs looked up, farted and went back to sleep.

To be honest, I'm a bit surprised the dogs didn't go all Marie Provost on the pair of them.



 
This is entirely plausible. You really cannot underestimate the potent umami of a Dog Fart

Or a beastiality sex act threesome goes terribly wrong.

My Take on this:

Gene Hackman died naturally
Wife committed suicide (pills by her body)
Dog kept in cage starved to death

Was thinking the same thing now. He forgot to install CO2 detectors. Thats what killed that Argie footballer and the pilot. Well indirecty as I guess the crash in the sea did for them although hopefullyn they were both unconscious on impact. 

Each year, more than 400 Americans die from unintentional CO poisoning not linked to fires
CO2 is Carbon Dioxide so don't go installing them!
Indeed my mistake it's CO not CO2. A bit like C2H5OH and CH3OH. One is great fun ( in moderation) the other will kill you.

Same. The fact it's both of them and the dog as well indicates it surely was some sort of accident. Very sad. 
Sheriff's report say that Hackman's other two dogs are alive and in good health. One found inside the house, one outside. The report also said, the deceased, had been dead for some time.

A great filmography for Hackman. My two personal favourites are his small role in A Bridge Too Far and the excellent BAT 21.

so very sad, one of my favourite actors and excelled at drama or comedy. The Birdcage stands out and the likes of The Firm, Crimson Tide and Unforgiven. I'd say one of his best performances was in the superb Mississippi Burning. RIP.
