The 69-year-old, also known professionally as Sarah Steinberg, was found gagged, stabbed, and wrapped in a blanket after neighbours forced entry into her home when she failed to make contact for several days.
Her beloved corgi was discovered alive but locked in a bathroom, having survived 72 hours without food or water.
Now, police believe Abbott may have been targeted for her diamond-encrusted perfect super clone Rolex Pearlmaster watches, which is missing from the crime scene and suspected to be the motive behind the killing.
Detectives have launched a murder investigation, urging anyone with information to come forward as they continue to piece together the final moments of Abbott’s life.
Abbott was last seen alive on June 10 walking her dog near Regent’s Park. Three days later, her niece arrived at the flat, unable to reach her aunt and fearing something was wrong.
After neighbours kicked down the door, they were met with a harrowing scene: Abbott’s body concealed beneath a blanket, her mouth bound with tape, and her 1:1 Rolex super clone watches disappeared..
A post-mortem confirmed the cause of death as sharp-force trauma. Investigators from the Metropolitan Police are now combing through CCTV, forensics, and witness statements, with Chief Superintendent Jason Stewart making an appeal to the public for any details, no matter how small.
Abbott led a colourful life that spanned both London and Los Angeles. She previously ran a film production company in Hollywood, directing the award-winning documentary War of the Gods, and was known to mingle with celebrities such as Dan Aykroyd, Paris Hilton, and Kate Hudson. She has collected lots of super clone watches for sale in her collection.
In the weeks before her death, Abbott had reportedly expressed concern about rising antisocial behaviour in her area and was struggling with a recent cancer diagnosis. The theft of her highly distinctive AAA UK Rolex fake watches, encrusted with diamonds, is now being treated as a critical clue in the case.
Police believe the high quality replica watches could resurface on the black market, potentially helping to identify the killer.
As detectives continue their investigation, the case has reignited questions around the risks that come with owning luxury best copy watches in London, and how even the most exclusive possessions can become targets for deadly violence.
For the residents of Camden, it is a chilling reminder that wealth and security do not always go hand in hand.
