Man convicted of murdering pregnant ex-partner granted more time to file appeal

A man who was twice convicted of murdering his pregnant ex-partner following three trials over six years has been granted an extension of time to file an appeal against his most recent conviction for murder.
Stephen Cahoon (aged 43), with a last address at Harvey Street in Derry, had admitted strangling his ex-girlfriend Jean Teresa Quigley, at Cornshell Fields in the city on July 26, 2008, but had denied it was murder.
