Chilling Bodycam Reveals Gene Hackman’s Final Fear: Stalked by Mystery Man Before Tragic Deaths!

by

It was previously reported that there were worries from Gene Hackman’s spouse, as she believed an unknown individual might have been tailing her prior to their unfortunate demise.

In the recently unveiled bodycam recording, Christopher, Betsy Arakawa’s hairdresser, mentioned that she appeared distressed when she revealed two distinct occurrences that transpired in December.

On February 26, the unfortunate discovery was made that Hackman, aged 95, and Arakawa, aged 65, had passed away within their Santa Fe residence.

It was discovered later on that the star passed away due to heart disease and Alzheimer’s a week following Arakawa’s demise from hantavirus. Arakawa had been serving as his caregiver.

However, Christopher informed authorities that the couple had expressed fears of being pursued approximately two months prior to their demise.

In the footage acquired by Fox, he stated that she told him about a man who had parked near their gate and trailed them.

On two distinct instances, I’d like to rephrase that for you:

1) The first time was a visit to White Rock. They stopped for lunch there, and as they left their gated community, someone had been parked outside, who then continued to follow them all the way to White Rock.

2) Another instance occurred when they traveled to White Rock. After having lunch there, they were being trailed by someone who had been parked near their gated community. This individual persisted in following them right up to White Rock.

Arakawa told Christopher she was surprised security ‘didn’t know how he got there.’  

As we were departing, I observed that a car seemed to have been tailing us from our home all the way to White Rock, she disclosed.

Christopher mentioned that Arakawa revealed the man was carrying a file stuffed with pictures of Hackman, and asked him to autograph them.

‘She approached him and said, ”I told him he needed to have more respect”,’ Christopher recalled.

But that same man later returned on a different day, following the couple to a separate location.

In that incident, he tried to offer them a bottle of wine, but they declined.

Christopher said Arakawa’s ordeal was ‘crazy.’

I exclaimed, ‘Wow, Betsy, that’s wild! You shouldn’t have gone near that person. It really makes me uneasy.’ What’s unsettling is that [they] are someone you know well.

Authorities suspect that the late actor passed away on approximately February 18 due to critical heart disease, with progressed Alzheimer’s disease playing a substantial role in his demise.

According to officials from the New Mexico Medical Investigator’s Office, Arakawa passed away a week prior to Hackman, due to Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome. This is a serious lung disease that can be contracted through contact with infected rodents.

The couple were discovered lying dead in separate rooms of their home.

Hackman was found in the home’s entryway, and Arakawa was found in a bathroom.

Initially, investigators considered the deaths as potentially suspicious, since they found no evidence of a break-in or any signs of disorderliness.

The bodies were discovered in a state of partial mummification at their $3.3 million mansion.

A fan lay close to Arakawa, and nearby were scattered various prescription medications that led investigators to believe he may have fallen.

Last week, a court in New Mexico issued a temporary hold, preventing anyone from publishing photos or videos of Hackman’s house, where he resides with his spouse.

The Hackman family’s property submitted a request to prevent the release of photos, arguing that it was essential to safeguard their privacy during a time of mourning, as protected by the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of constitutional rights.

A potential new court case might be forthcoming, as Hackman’s kids are yet to discover the specifics of their father’s final will.
