Detective Inspector Rob Smith, who is leading the investigation, said: “For 25 years the family of Lyn Bryant have lived with this terrible loss and uncertainty. Det Insp Rob Smith “We know that 25 years is a long time but we remain convinced that someone knows what happened to Lyn and for some reason they have never come forward. “The weapon, believed to be a single-edged blade such as a penknife or a small kitchen knife, has never been found.” Mystery surrounds Mrs Bryant’s glasses which cryptically reappeared at the crime scene four months after she died. “The reappearance of Lyn’s glasses remains a real mystery in this case,” added Det Insp Smith.
