Tommy Cooper's niece found dead as man is charged with murder
A man has been charged with murder after Tommy Cooper's niece was found dead at her home.
Sabrina Cooper, 68, was discovered on Sunday (18.12.22) in Eastbourne, East Sussex, and police have since arrested Tony King, 59 - who was known to her - and charged him with one count of murder and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place.
Sabrina's dad David was the brother of late comedy legend Tommy, who died on stage from a heart attack in 1984 aged 63.
Detective Chief Inspector Emma Vickers, of Sussex Police, said: "Our thoughts are with Sabrina's family and friends at this difficult time. We are supporting them and keeping them updated on the progress of this fast-moving investigation.
"We understand this incident will also cause upset and concern in the community, and I would like to reassure people that this is being treated as an isolated incident involving people known to each other, and with no threat to the wider public.
"We have already completed extensive inquiries and this has resulted in a person being arrested and charged within 48 hours of police initially attending the address.
"Those inquiries will continue as the case progresses through the court, and we encourage anyone with concerns or information relating to what happened to get in touch with us."
Grandmother Sabrina is said to have been "really friendly".
A local coffee shop worker told The Sun newspaper: "I used to see her when I popped out for a break and we'd always have a chat.
"She was really friendly and well-known locally.
"I last saw her out walking her dogs the day before she died. I'm devastated."
