A Santa Fe doctor has sensationally claimed that the former classical pianist, 65, had called him the day after police say she died.

Dr. Josiah Child, who operates Cloudberry Health in Santa Fe, New Mexico, disclosed that Betsy contacted his clinic on Feb. 12, a day after police reported her death, Daily Mail reported on Saturday.

Hackman, who was dressed in gray sweatpants and a blue long-sleeved t-shirt, was found dead in the mudroom. A pair of sunglasses and a walking cane were found nearby. An officer at the scene suspected that Hackman had “suddenly fallen,” according to a search warrant affidavit obtained by PEOPLE.
