The wife of a disgraced lawyer from Sydney’s eastern suburbs almost collapsed in court today as her husband was sentenced to at least six years in prison for masterminding the theft of more than $6 million from the estates of elderly women, most of which had been intended for charities.

 

The boomer couple spent the ill-gotten gains on luxury homes and furniture – and to top up their self managed superannuation fund.

 

Also a part of the multimillion-dollar plot, Therese O’Brien was sentenced to three years imprisonment but will be able to serve that as an intensive correction order including 500 hours community service…………
