GLASGOW OFFENDER SENTENCED FOR DOMESTIC HOMICIDE IN TRAGIC ATTACK

Raymond Cartwright, aged 41, was found guilty of the murder of his partner Alyson Bow in Glasgow after an argument at her residence.

Despite earlier orders forbidding him from contacting her due to threats, he attacked her on the day of the incident, stabbing her multiple times, including a fatal wound through her jugular vein.

The court heard that he had confessed to the killing, which occurred in October in Glasgow’s west end.

His legal counsel argued that he was 'besotted' with Ms Bow and intended to marry her, but the High Court sentenced him to a minimum of 17 years in prison, with a life sentence mandated by Judge Lord Brodie.

The murder was described as 'particularly serious,' especially considering Ms Bow’s vulnerability and Cartwright’s prior conviction for robbery.

The court heard about the profound impact her death had on her family, with her 22-year-old daughter Holly expressing her grief and wishing her mother could have given her away at her wedding.

Her 17-year-old son Jordan was also noted to be suffering from her loss.

Cartwright’s history of violence and previous threats against Ms Bow played a role in the court’s decision to impose a lengthy sentence.
