Dr. Thomas Kwan, a British doctor, was sentenced to 31 years in prison for attempting to murder his mother's partner, Patrick O'Hara, by injecting him with poison disguised as a COVID-19 vaccine.

The plot was uncovered through surveillance footage, and Kwan was found to have a morbid obsession with poisons, possessing various toxic substances at his home.

Texan 'princess' loses Rome villa with Caravaggio artwork in inheritance dispute.

Princess Rita Jenrette Boncompagni Ludovisi, a Texas-born princess, was evicted from a historic villa in Rome that contains the only known ceiling painted by Caravaggio, following a bitter inheritance dispute. The villa has been in the Ludovisi family since the early 1600s and was put on the court-ordered auction block last year as part of the inheritance dispute and assigned a court-appraised value of 471 million euros ($533 million), in large part due to the Caravaggio.

Italian villa with Caravaggio fresco evicts Texan 'princess' in inheritance dispute.

Princess Rita Jenrette Boncompagni Ludovisi, a Texan turned Italian princess, has been evicted from the historic Casino dell’Aurora in central Rome, which features an original Caravaggio ceiling painting and a Michelangelo statue recently unearthed in the garden, after an inheritance dispute with the late Prince Nicolo Boncompagni's children. Italian courts have previously ruled that the home must be sold to resolve the dispute. The home was put up for auction by state authorities four times in 2022, but no one bid on any of the auctions.

Texas-born princess evicted from Rome villa with Caravaggio fresco.

Rita Boncompagni Ludovisi, a US-born "princess," was evicted from a villa in Rome that contains the only ceiling fresco ever painted by Caravaggio amid a long-running inheritance dispute with the three sons of her late husband, Nicolò, who was the property's last owner. The villa had been mostly abandoned and off the radar to the public until 2010, when it opened after a restoration project inspired by Boncompagni Ludovisi. In his will, Nicolò gave his wife the right to stay in the property for the rest of her life and, if sold, the proceeds were to be split between her and his sons. However, the sons disputed this, prompting a legal wrangle.
