closePolice again searched the home of Bradley Cooper this week, days after he was charged with murdering his wife, Nancy, in July.
Cary Detective J.A. Young sought a judge's permission to return to the Coopers' Lochmere subdivision home this week to look for "left" sneakers that matched a set of two right-foot sneakers the detective found in the couple's garage. Bradley Cooper had told detectives that his wife had gone out for a run around 7 a.m. the day she disappeared.
Nancy Cooper was found strangled to death July 14, her body dumped near an unfinished subdivision in Cary. On Monday, a grand jury charged her husband, Bradley Cooper, 35, with first-degree murder.

According to a search warrant returned Friday, police recovered four pairs of footwear from the home this week but did not specify what kind.
They also secured a diamond pendant necklace that Nancy Cooper's friends and family say she wore everywhere. Hannah Pritchard, Nancy's friend, told a judge during a custody hearing this month that she'd never seen Nancy without it. Police said they've collected pictures of Nancy Cooper wearing the necklace while swimming at the beach.
Brad Cooper had told police, according to the warrant, that the pendant was in his possession. It has now been secured as evidence in Nancy's murder.
Police also seized additional jewelry, phones, compact discs and receipts.
