Police in Australia have revealed a fresh lead in the murder of a former Bermuda prosecutor's wife.

Corryn Rayney, a Supreme Court registrar married to former Bermuda Senior Crown Counsel Lloyd Rayney, went missing last August.

Her body was found in a bush grave in Kings Park, Perth, nine days later.

The couple lived in Bermuda from 2003 to 2004 then moved to Perth, where he carried on work as a lawyer.

The pair were described as "estranged" at the time of Mrs. Rayney's death.

Detectives have named Mr. Rayney as the prime suspect in the case, saying evidence suggests she was killed at the family home.

He denies involvement, and they have not charged anyone.

According to the West Australian newspaper, Police gave an update on the case yesterday.

They revealed that a handkerchief found in Kings Park, monogrammed with the words "Stanley Adams," could lead them to Ms Rayney's killer.

They believe the monogram could refer to the handkerchief's owner or a brand name, and have appealed to the public for information regarding the name.

Det. Sgt. Paul Robinson said police had exhausted all options trying to trace the origins of the handkerchief, which is understood to be a vital piece of evidence in the crime.

He said every person named Stanley Adams living in Western Australia had been interviewed and ruled out as suspects, leading police to believe the mysterious name could instead refer to a brand of handkerchief.

According to the West Australian, Det. Sgt. Robinson confirmed that Mr. Rayney is still a suspect and will remain so until he can be ruled out of the investigation.
