By Tom Kelly PUBLISHED: 06:55 EST, 1 August 2012 | UPDATED: 18:20 EST, 1 August 2012 A judge yesterday warned of the ‘utterly destructive’ effects of drug abuse on families after hearing how billionaire Hans Rausing hid his dead wife’s body for more than two months. Judge Richard McGregor-Johnson said the Tetra Pak heir had enjoyed ‘every material advantage imaginable’ before throwing it all away on addiction to hard drugs and descending into a life of squalor. After Rausing’s wife Eva died, he  kept her decomposing corpse under  a pile of bin bags, bed sheets and  clothing several feet deep inside a locked annexe in the couple’s £70million Chelsea mansion, where they lived as virtual recluses.
