The two were watching Netflix on Nov. 25, 2022 at a trailer park in Bensalem Township when Connors got up to use the bathroom and Cooper took her father’s gun from his safe, according to court documents obtained by the Bucks County Courier Times.

Police would later receive a call from the mother of one of Cooper’s acquaintances, who said she saw Connor’s body in a video call on Instagram.
