Framed. Accompanied by a relevant newspaper article. Framed. In 2015 solicitor Brian O’Donnell, former owner of Gorse Hill walked into the Bank of Ireland AGM and threw a set of keys with a keyring marked “The Bloody Keys” at Bank of Ireland chief executive Richie Boucher. It was a widely publicised event during the procession of court cases and appeals in the long battle O’Donnell and his family fought to retain their lavish family home on Dublin’s Vico Road, after the family had amassed debts of €71 million with Bank of Ireland. The O’Donnells enlisted the unlikely support of the self styled New Irish Land League to support the family’s plea against eviction from one of the finest coastal sites in the country. Over several weeks the Land League mounted a staunch defence of the O'Donnells against eviction. The saga finally ended in October 2015 when a Court of Appeal dismissed an appeal by the O’Donnell family against a decision to lift a legal bar on the sale of the property, which eventually sold for €9.5 million, the proceeds going to the family's creditors.
