The tragedy occurred after Errington had been drinking. He grabbed Sandra by the throat but she managed to struggle free and in self defense she stabbed him through the heart. After the trial her brother Georffrey Davies said: "She has had a dreadful ordeal. All the wants to do now is to go back into the arms of her family and try to forget."
