Police suspect foul play in August 2021 disappearance of Ohio woman Sacoya Cooper. - DatelineNBC
Thirty-three-year-old Sacoya Cooper was last seen on August 31, 2021, when she left her house in the north side of Columbus, Ohio, around 11:30 p.m. to go to a nearby convenience store. She was driving her 2009 black Ford Fusion. It is unclear if Sacoya ever made it to the convenience store.“We just -- we just want her home,” Sacoya’s best friend, Bre Belcher, said. Bre told Dateline the last time she saw Sacoya was on August 30 – a day before Sacoya went missing.
Bre says that the two have been through hard times together and have always helped each other out. She said that at one point, they were both without a home, but that was all in the past. In 2021, Bre moved to Columbus for a fresh start in a new city. After living there for a bit, she was eager for Sacoya to join her.
According to Bre, Sacoya was also trying for a fresh start in Columbus. She worked hard and eventually got another job at a nearby McDonalds. Sacoya quickly became the crew manager there and was starting to do better. “She got a house rented. She always wanted a house for her dog, eventually getting that fenced in front yard, backyard, and two cars,” Bre said. “She actually came and did what she was supposed to do.
It’s hard for Bre to fathom that her friend just vanished without a trace. “It doesn't even happen in movies,” Bre said. “So how could it happen in real life?” She thinks someone may know more, or may have seen something that can help, as Sacoya’s apartment is located close to many local businesses and storefronts.
