Everton: So, here’s the scoop. Gillian Shaw, 61, is in some serious trouble. She’s been charged with murdering Steven Cox, who was 63. This all went down on New Year’s Eve.
Police got called to a domestic incident on Rothwell Street around 4 PM on December 31. When they arrived, they found Steven with some pretty serious injuries. Sadly, he passed away in the hospital early on New Year’s Day.
Gillian, who’s reportedly Steven’s long-term partner, showed up in court via video link. She was wearing a prison jumper and glasses, looking pretty emotional. She only confirmed her name and birth date during the hearing.
