The murder of Shannon Saville-Cagle

Two Sleuths

It was a hot Summer day in July of 1985 in a quiet, upscale California neighborhood when a young mother was executed in her own home. 23-year-old Shannon Saville (née Cagle) had spent the day at work when she returned home to change clothes. She likely didn't see the killer coming before she was ambushed a few feet past her front door. Investigators have said the murderer tried to clean up some of the evidence. However, they left one important clue behind. The shell casing from a .9mm handgun.

We have spent months working with Shannon's family and the Fresno County Sheriff's Office on this case, and pulling public records and old news coverage. After nearly 40 years, we have uncovered new details and, for the first time, helped to establish a cash reward for evidence that leads to an arrest.
Join Shannon's now adult daughter, Desiree, in the fight for justice on a Facebook page dedicated to the case.

And please help us and Shannon's family by sharing this episode wherever you can.
