The victim:
Abigail Bourne.
Observations:
Multiple abrasions to the kneecaps; unwillingly dragged. A number of lacerations to the forearms and biceps; penknife, to keep her subdued. Expensive jewellery; rich. Clean ring on her wedding finger; her rich husband gave her gifts, she was a trophy wife. Not especially bright, and rather clumsy, taking into consideration her disregard for the weather, and smudged makeup, done by herself. A recent appointment to the hairdresser, hair styled and scalp rectified, but it became irritant. Beneath her nails; traces of hair and skin. Dry, cracked lips have traces of lip gloss, along with traces of another substance. Cyanide. An old favourite for suicides. No doubt the cyanide was forced, judging by a soft bruising around her jaw. The murderer's reasoning; perhaps a jealous rival, or an enemy of her husband. Most likely the latter, to affect her husband more.
Husband:
Matthew Bourne.
Murderer:
Jordan Andrews.
