Johnny Hillan: "Oja Kodar got a $1M L.A. home, $400G trust fund and $130G bogus loan payment -- not counting the nice Croatian digs she built with Orson's money during his lifetime! And the guy was struggling to find money to complete his movies. Holy crap!!!"

Joe McBride: "...Follow the money."

Between March 2006 to April 2010, Serbian model Katarina Rebrača, her mother, Sandrini Bogunović, and two of their associates, allegedly embezzled 37 million dinars (roughly U.S. $336,000) from a charity established to educate women about breast cancer prevention, according to the indictment.
The 44-year-old Rebrača, who was born in New York, spent part of her childhood residing at Welles' home. Her mother, Bogunović, was a witness on a hotly contested legal document during the 1986 court battle between Welles’ mistress, Croatian actress Oja Kodar, and his widow, Italian countess Paola Mori.

In a typed single-sentence agreement dated six days before his death, Welles made Oja Kodar a 50 percent beneficiary of all of his pension plans, including SAG and AFTRA. it was not notarized or reviewed by his lawyer. One of the two witnesses was Sandrina Bogunovic.
