A mother was taunted immediately after her eldest son was shot dead by her husband and youngest son in a bitter feud over land that devastated a North Cork community. 

An inquest into the deaths of Tadg O'Sullivan, 60, and his two sons Mark, 26, and Diarmuid, 23, heard how their mother Anne O’Sullivan had been forced to seek legal advice in the weeks before the murder-suicide that claimed the lives of all three men.
