FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda A trial for prominent Perth barrister Lloyd Rayney, who is accused of wilfully murdering his wife, has been pushed back two months.
His lawyers had requested a three-month adjournment but Justice Brian Martin – the former Northern Territory chief justice who will preside over the trial – rejected the application in the Supreme Court on Monday.
Instead, he granted a two-month adjournment to deal with matters of disclosure.
During the proceedings, Rayney’s lawyers also indicated that the crux of Rayney’s defence would hinge on an argument that Mrs Rayney may not have been murdered and that the circumstances surrounding her death were contentious.
Mrs Rayney, a former Supreme Court registrar, disappeared on August 7, 2007, after leaving a weekly dance class.
The 44-year-old’s car was found nine days after her disappearance and police found her body buried in a shallow grave in Kings Park.
Rayney’s lawyer, David Edwardson, said a central issue for the trial would be to determine whether Mrs Rayney was indeed murdered.
He said the defence team would also argue that the police investigation was biased.
Rayney has denied any involvement in his estranged wife’s death.
The judge-alone trial will start on July 16.
