KILLER Malcolm Webster’s sickening crimes have cost him a windfall of more than £140,000.
The former nurse had been due to inherit the cash from the aunt who gave him a roof over his head after he was charged with murdering his wife.
Eva Bailey died in hospital aged 91 just 10 days before Webster was put on trial at the High Court in Glasgow.
But by then, the former company chairman’s secretary had decided to cut her nephew out of her will.
Webster was jailed for 30 years after being convicted of 11 charges, including murder, attempted murder, fire-raising and fraud.
He drugged his first wife, Claire Morris, and put her in his car, which he then drove off the Auchenhuive-Tarves road in Aberdeenshire.
As she lay unconscious inside the vehicle, he set fire to it.
He attempted to kill his second wife, Felicity Drumm, in a similar crash in New Zealand.
He also set fire to properties at Lyne of Skene and in New Zealand, emptied Ms Drumm’s bank account and forged her signature.
The 54-year-old even faked having cancer to ingratiate himself with Oban woman Simone Banarjee, whom he attempted to bigamously marry.
Last month, Webster appeared at the Court of Criminal Appeal to try to overturn his convictions.
Judges have yet to rule on his bid to clear his name.
Webster and his aunt are understood to have been close and he lived with Mrs Bailey at her flat at Guildford, Surrey, after he was charged with murder and released on bail.
However, as the case against him gathered pace, his aunt took steps to disinherit him.
Details of her will show that she left an estate valued at £717,664, and Webster had been due to receive 20% of the money.
But Mrs Bailey, who died in January 2011, had decided two years earlier to write him out of the will.
Webster’s brother, Ian, who lives in Birmingham, and his sister, Caroline Walters, who lives at Woking, in Surrey, were also left a 20% share of their aunt’s fortune.
Webster’s son, Edward, whom he fathered with Ms Drumm, was due to receive about £9,000 following his great-aunt’s death.
Claire Morris’s brother, Peter, said last night: “I was unaware of this, but it is quite rightly so.
“Despite taking hundreds of thousands of pounds, Webster had no concept of money and has been insolvent for a long time.”
After Webster was jailed, trial judge Lord Bannatyne attempted to secure compensation for Ms Drumm, whom he cheated out of her £200,000 life savings.
However, the court heard Webster had no financial means, despite also claiming £200,000 in life insurance after murdering Ms Morris.
He spent the cash on luxury items, including a Range Rover and a yacht.
A spokesman for the Crown Office said it had no outstanding proceeds-of-crime claims against Webster.
