at what looks to have been a heist, British actress Viscella Richards, better known by her stage name Vikki Richards, was found dead at the age of 79 on Wednesday with her hands bound at her Caribbean house in North Valsyn, Trinidad.
The retired actress was discovered, according to the Sun on Friday, by a friend who started to worry after she hadn’t heard from Richards since Tuesday night.
The friend eventually found Richards’ body while investigating the house after arriving at her residence, finding the gate closed and the front door ajar.
When she was located, no additional signs of violence were found on her body, according to local officials.
Vikki rose to fame for her role as a supporting actor in Black Snake, a 1973 British blaxploitation film. Her other film credits include The Love Factor in 1969 and the Onedin Line in 1971.
