Police have ruled out any suspicion regarding Sinéad O’Connor’s death.
Police: Sinéad O’Connor’s Death Not Considered Suspicious
Irish singer Sinéad O’Connor’s death is not being treated as suspicious, according to the police. However, an autopsy will be conducted to determine the official cause of death.
O’Connor, who tragically passed away at the age of 56, had been battling mental health issues for years. The struggle intensified in January 2022 when her 17-year-old son, Shane, died by suicide after escaping suicide watch at a local hospital.
London Metropolitan Police received an emergency call around 11:18 a.m. local time on Wednesday. When they arrived at the designated apartment, they found O’Connor unresponsive. Despite their efforts, she was pronounced dead at the scene. The police found no signs of foul play and stated that her death is not considered suspicious.
O’Connor’s family released a statement expressing their profound sadness and requesting privacy during this difficult time.
Fans and colleagues took to Twitter to pay tribute to the iconic singer. Composer Bear McCreary, who had been collaborating with O’Connor on new songs, mourned the loss of a friend and described her as a wise, visionary, and hilarious warrior poet.
I am gutted by the loss of #SineadOConnor. She was the warrior poet I expected her to be — wise and visionary, but also hilarious. She and I laughed a lot. We were writing new songs together, which will now never be complete. We’ve all lost an icon. I’ve lost a friend. #RIP.
Chip Franklin, referencing O’Connor’s courageous act of revealing sex abuse by Catholic priests, acknowledged the relentless attacks she faced and praised her for being right. He lamented her passing and the toll it took on her.
