There was a kind of a thing to that display of wealth that of course had brought the wrath of the Criminal Assets Bureau to the Connors store a number of times when Andy Connors was alive.
There was revenue case brought because they owned a series of properties and had never kind of had legitimate earnings before.
Andy Connors, as Eamon has very articulately told us, was headed up a burglary gang that went around the country.
They were prolific.
There was a number of different police operations against them, but they would hit a certain area and go in and rob houses.
They had an eye for fine art, for antiques, for jewellery, and they cleaned up on that.
And with the money he earned, he then subsequently became the banker into gangland.
He'd loan money at high rate interest.
bought up properties, travelled in very high-end cars, lavished his family with gifts and was very tragically, no matter what his life was, shot dead in front of not only his wife Anne, but also their young children at the time in their home.
And she has managed to stay put ever since.
I mean, you're talking 12 years now.
She's still on the property where he was killed.
She sometimes lives within the property, sometimes lives in a caravan out the back.
There's been some move by the Criminal Assets Bureau to sell up.
some of the properties and she's been hit with a second set of Criminal Assets Bureau procedures.
She has been caught and accused of robberies herself, house burglary herself.
Well, it was the property where he was shot dead.
And there was also, she's sort of...
or there had been a claim laid to land beside it, which was Mansfield property, but which I think she was trying to move on to.
