As of my last update in October 2023, Elisa Boyer, who was present during the events surrounding Sam Cooke's death in 1964, is not widely reported to be alive. Information on her current status is limited, and there have been no recent updates confirming her whereabouts or health. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it would be best to consult recent news sources.
Elisa Boyer, a prostitute, took all of Sam Cooke's money and clothes. She brought him to a hotel and locked him in a room. He was shot by Elisa's accomplice when he tried to escape.
There was a report that one year after the killing of Sam Cook, she was convicted of prostution and in 1979 or there abouts, she was convicted of the 2nd degree murder of her boyfriend.
Sam Cooke never married Barbra. He was married to Barbara Campbell in 1953 until his death in 1964. There may be confusion due to the similarity in their names, but Cooke's relationship with Campbell was the most significant in his life.
He is listed as 5'10 but his biographers & death certificate list at 5'9
Bertha Franklin, who was involved in the death of Sam Cooke, was not murdered; she died of natural causes in 1992. The circumstances surrounding Cooke's death on December 11, 1964, remain controversial, with Franklin, a motel manager, claiming self-defense during the altercation. There is no information or evidence suggesting that she was murdered.
