Authorities misidentified a deceased dog while investigating the deaths of the actor Gene Hackman and his wife, pianist Betsy Arakawa, according to a pet care specialist.
The news comes as authorities have been searching for answers after the deaths of Hackman and Arakawa, whose partially mummified bodies were discovered on 26 February at their Santa Fe home. Hackman and Arakawa may have died more than a week earlier, the Santa Fe county sheriff, Adan Mendoza, said.
