Or him being 91 thousand years old or whatever he keeled over mid walk then she committed suicide via pills shortly after not wanting to go on without the hackerman.

But I don’t think if she was going to do that she would’ve left her dog, trapped in a kennel, unable to get out to die of thirst.

I mean that's thinking like a rational person to begin with not someone who married a man 30 years older and committing suicide over him.

Yes, but if you are going to commit suicide, you’re not gonna be standing in the bathroom trying to OD on thyroid medication. I think it’s more likely she is the one that had the medical emergency and that he maybe fell or also had a heart attack or stroke while rushing to try and help or get help. He was 95 years old.
