Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza held a press conference on Friday to share new information about the deaths of Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa.

Although most of the information was previously disclosed in a search warrant from the scene, Sheriff Adan Mendoza told the press that Hackman's "last day of life" most likely occurred nine days before his body was found.

According to the information, the official results of the autopsy and toxicological tests are still pending confirmation, but the pathologist shared the data obtained from the actor's pacemaker.

The exact chronology of events - including who died first, Hackman or Arakawa - is still unknown. However, investigators have virtually ruled out carbon monoxide as a cause of death, as "both tested negative" for poisoning.

The search for the cause of death is ongoing, and the couple's cell phones found among the evidence have not yet been unlocked, so details of the couple's last contact before their deaths have not yet been established. One of Heckman's daughters said she had not spoken to her father for several months before his death.
