Property developer 'skilfully staged' wife's murder on holiday to make it look like an accident, prosecutors allege
Donald McPherson, 47, denies murdering his 47-year-old wife Paula Leeson at a rented holiday cottage in a 'remote' part of Denmark. Prosecutors claim Mr McPherson 'stood to gain a vast fortune' if Ms Leeson died, after he had taken out joint life insurance policies covering the couple from Sale which were worth about £3 million.
