Could be carbon monoxide or something wierd. You never know

That would be in line with the "no immediate indication of foul play"

The Press Association confirmed there is an “active investigation’’ into the deaths. Sheriff Mendoza said there was no immediate indication of foul play. He did not provide a cause of death or say when the couple might have died.

I think the wife od'd on pills and Hackman fell and never got back up, while the dog starved/dehydrated from being trapped in a closet.
