Woman who lost sons and husband in Cork murder-suicide dies following illness

The mother who lost her two sons and husband in Kanturk last year in a murder-suicide incident has lost her battle with a serious illness.

Anne O'Sullivan lost her husband Tadgh and her sons Diarmuid and Mark O'Sullivan in a horror shooting at their farm house in Kanturk last October. It's believed Tadgh and Diarmuid entered into a pact to shoot Mark before turning the guns on themselves.

It's understood the row centered on a will which left the 115 acre farm to Mark. Anne died from her illness this morning.
