Family blast husband who'killed' rich heiress

THE FAMILY of an heiress found dead in a swimming pool has blasted her husband after the judge in a civil case ruled he unlawfully killed her.

Paula Leeson, 47, from Sale, was discovered after drowning in a pool at a remote holiday cottage in Denmark in 2017, a trip booked by her husband Donald McPherson.

McPherson, 51, went on trial accused of his wife's murder, but the case was halted after the judge ruled that despite circumstantial evidence, a jury could not be sure beyond reasonable doubt that he had killed her.
