I was shocked to learn this tidbit about the French Connection:
Quote:

The most famous sequence was dangerously realistic: A car chase in which Det. Doyle speeds under elevated subway tracks, his brown Pontiac (driven by a stuntman) screeching into areas that the filmmakers had not received permits for. When Doyle crashes into a white Ford, it wasn't a stuntman driving the other car, but a New York City resident who didn't know a movie was being made.

Just saw a headline that the wife has "been dead for a while."
They had all been dead for a while, not just the wife

Seems strange to completely gloss over "oh and his wife's dead too"

The NYT is saying that no carbon monoxide leaks were found, so I wonder if it was suicide.

Like they both drank kool-aid and the dog starved? Or it was a murder-suicide?

That would probably fall under the definition of foul play. Could have been something as simple as the Flu. It takes down nonagenerians all the time.

Maybe one of them had dementia and the caretaker died of something. Then the other one just waited. It sucks, but this happens.

Fox News story is saying the sheriff's dept visited the house but didn't say why. Assume it was a wellness check. The front door was open. She was dead on the floor in a bathroom. It didn't say where is body was found. There were signs they had been dead for "some time" (facial bloat and mummified hands) but not how long . One dog was also dead, but there were also two dogs alive on the property. There were open prescription bottles, but did not say what the script was. Gas company and fire department scanned for gas leaks or CO and didn't not find any signs.

Yeah, this is a really peculiar story, moreso than I understood this morning

I was wondering if the wife had a heart attack and died from it. But Gene wasn't able to care for himself or even use a phone.

I saw one article that said the front door was ajar so any CO could have been cycled out of the house by then.

Also, they were in separate rooms

I don't' recall seeing that he had dementia.

I'd think if his wife was dead he could have walked out the front door and asked for help?

Article I read said workers at the house (yard guys?) found them and called 911. Said workers had last talked to the wife 2 weeks ago.

She was in the bathroom near the front door. He was in the kitchen.

The search warrant with the deputy's report when he first arrived is up on the Fox News website. Most of those details are in the last few replies on this thread

Fox also said there was a "descendant" living in another room of the house.
