The 49-year-old reportedly stole upwards of $20m from family and friends through investments spanning seven years, then used the money to fund her lavish lifestyle.
In February of this year, Melissa was confirmed dead after a shoe was found that contained the remains of her foot on a New South Wales south coast beach.
