At Rest

Suicide
Jackson police officers and Jackson County sheriff's deputies surrounded a house around 9:45 a.m. after receiving a call that Caleb Cannons was barricaded inside with a gun. Cannons, whose relatives said had recently returned from drug rehab, reportedly yelled from a window that he couldn't handle his life's problems and had already relapsed. Police said they negotiated with Cannons for three hours before hearing a single gunshot. Officers went inside and found Cannons had shot himself in an upstairs bedroom.
This record exists so that Caleb Patrick Cannons, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
