The Drowning of Paula Leeson
The Drowning of Paula Leeson
A look at the death of Paula Leeson, who in 2017 was found floating face down in the pool at a Danish holiday home on a weekend break with her husband Donald McPherson. Her spouse went on trial for murder in a Manchester court, but the case sensationally collapsed and he walked free in 2021. As investigators dug deeper into his past, a global web of deception emerged and Paula's family begin to piece together who Donald McPherson really was in a campaign to get to the truth and get justice
The Drowning of Paula Leeson airs on 5 HD at 10:30 PM, Tuesday 6 May. (Subtitles, repeat.)
