Gene Hackman's daughter shares 'cause of death' as warrant reveals 'suspicious' mummification of bodies
Gene and his wife Betsy were found dead in their NM home
Gene Hackman's daughter has shared that she believes her father and his wife Betsy Arakawa died from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Their deaths are still an active investigation, but Elizabeth Jean Hackman told TMZ that she believes the death was due to toxic fumes.
The local gas company and fire department personnel responded to the home after the bodies were found to ensure there was no additional gas leak that would endanger deputies during the search.

Gene, 95, "was found to have the same signs of decomposition as his wife".
Mummification can occur naturally when a body is exposed to dry conditions, extreme cold, or other environmental factors that prevent decay.

One of the couple's three dogs, a German Shepherd, was found dead near Betsy's body but the couple's two other dogs were unharmed.
The warrant also revealed that the couple's front door was open and there were no signs of forced entry.
