Sarah Jane Cannon

Sarah Jane Cannon was shot in her flat at 33 Kelburn Terrace, Port Glasgow. Her partner was convicted for her murder on 24 August 1995 but later acquitted after serving over six and a half years in prison.

They had shared a flat together although evidence showed that they had not been getting on very well for the previous few months with her partner admitting that they had had an argument three days before Sarah Cannon's death during which he had struck her. Following that, Sarah Cannon had told a friend that she was breaking off her relationship with the partner.
