CoP was one of the original rides at WDW when it opened in 1972 so WDW's CoP was already in place and operating in Florida before that event. The building at Disneyland that was used for America Sings was the original CoP building. It is still there and is DL's Innovations building now if I recall correctly.
It was a tragic freak accident that involved a CM not a Guest. You guys sure have a way of dramatizing an innocent question. The OP will be afraid to go through the turnstiles at the entrance before you're done.
Actually, CoP wasn't an opening day attraction in 1971. CoP didn't open in the MK until January 1975, on the same day as Space Mountain. And you're right, the CoP building in Disneyland was repurposed into the America Sings attraction.
