Cleaner found Viagra after sudden drowning on mum-of-one, court hears

A house cleaner for a wealthy heiress who drowned in a swimming pool on holiday found Viagra and her husband's wedding ring in the bathroom of the family home shortly after her suspicious death, a court has heard.

The court has heard McPherson being described as a "Walter Mitty" who had changed his name multiple times, had 32 convictions spanning 15 years in three countries, and whose previous wife and their child died in a house fire. Mrs Mairs also told the court McPherson was "cold" and showed no emotion, and began clearing the house of any of his late wife's possessions soon after her death.

Born Alexander James Lang and originally from New Zealand, McPherson met Ms Leeson in 2013, using a "cover story" of being an orphan to hide his past after serving jail time for an £11 million bank fraud in Germany, the court heard. After he was acquitted, in a statement through his solicitors, McPherson denied any involvement in his wife's death, saying it was a "tragic accident".Ms Leeson married McPherson at a no-expense-spared ceremony at a Cheshire castle in 2014 after a "whirlwind romance".
