Man this story went from dark but also maybe kind of romantic to just dark and sad, if I'm reading this right and Gene Hackman was in the house with his wife's corpse for a week but was possibly too demented to know it. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/us/gene-hackman-investigation-cause-death.html

Not children nor wealth nor international fame could protect this man from a horribly undignified death. A lesson in that.
