Accused murderer blows kisses
The jailed Australian wife of murdered millionaire podiatrist Phillip Vasyli has blown kisses and told supporters “I’ll be out” during a court appearance in The Bahamas.
Donna Vasyli is charged with stabbing her husband to death at their Caribbean home in the exclusive gated community of Old Fort Bay.
• Stabbed podiatrist a ‘friendly bloke’
• Vic grandma and child stabbed to death
“It is claimed that you, on Tuesday, February 24, at New Providence, by means of unlawful harm, did intentionally cause the death of Phillip Vasyli,” Chief Magistrate Joyann Ferguson-Pratt told Vasyli during Monday’s court appearance, The Bahamas’ Tribune newspaper reported.
“You are not required to enter a plea in this matter.”
During the hearing Vasyli turned to family and supporters in the courtroom and said, “I’ll be out”.
She also blew kisses.
The judge denied Vasyli bail and scheduled her to reappear in the court on May 20, but she could apply to the Supreme Court for bail.
Mr Vasyli, 59, also an Australian, was found lifeless in the dining room of the luxury home with multiple stab wounds.
The owner of multiple podiatry clinics around the world, Mr Vasyli also founded an orthotic footwear company that sells Vionic with Orthaheel Technology products.
