He faced Joondalup Magistrates Court on Wednesday via phone, saying he understood the serious charge against him.

Mr Cannon was remanded in custody to appear in Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court on January 18.

Detective Senior Sergeant Stephen Cleal told reporters on Tuesday that Ms Cannon suffered “multiple wounds” to her body but did not share details about a weapon.

There are reports Ms Cannon was stabbed.

Lynn Cannon was a mother of two.

“There was screaming noises and obvious signs of a disturbance,” Sergeant Cleal said.

He also revealed there were calls made to police by family members concerned for Ms Cannon’s welfare.

Several items were seized from the house on Tuesday to be forensically examined.

The West Australian reports the couple split two years ago.
