This is a perfectly legitimate story that has a high level of public interest. I feel sorry for the hell that this poor man will have to endure for a few weeks, but it is not like she accused him of murder or pedophilia which the UK press have done to many innocent victims over the years usually followed by the tiniest of apologies. A free press can be a horrible thing.
No, they wrote a story that could be read "this old guy has $400,000,000 in his unguarded house and here's a picture of if so you can find it easier". Forget his reputation, his life has been put at risk. You can't apologies to a man who has been beaten and tortured to death to tell were his private keys (he never had) are.
