With a live LP in the Top 30, Cooke was in L.A. partying when he met 22 year
old Elisa Boyer at a club on December 11, 1964. They drove to South Central
where they registered at the Hacienda Motel as Mr. and Mrs. Sam Cooke.
Later Boyer left the room with most of Cooke's clothing. Cooke wearing one
shoe and a jacket broke into the motel's office where he thought she was
hiding. There he found Bertha Franklin the motel's manager who shoot him
three times with a .22. Cooke was shoot and killed on December 11, 1964 at
the Hacienda motel in Los Angeles. The manager of the motel, Bertha
Franklin claimed Cooke had tried to rape a twenty one year old woman Elisa
Boyer and then turned on her. The coroner's office ruled the death as
justifiable homicide. Over thirty five years later there remain questions
about the circumstances of Cooke's death and there has been talk about
reopening the investigation.
