Who Killed Ted Ammon? In October 2001, millionaire Ted Ammon was found bludgeoned to death in his East Hampton mansion. Ammon and his wife, Generosa, were on the brink of divorce when this Wall Street tycoon was murdered -- and there were millions at stake.

1986 Dashing millionaire Ted Ammon and artist Generosa Rand marry in 1986. The couple met after Ammon, who made his first $50 million by the age of 42, booked a real estate appointment with Generosa in New York City.

1992 The Ammons adopt 2-year-old twins -- Greg and Alexa -- from the Ukraine. Ammon also went on to make his second big fortune with Big Flower, a printing company he started on his own.

1999 The Ammon family leaves New York City to move to Coverwood, a $6 million estate in Surrey, England. Ammon takes frequent trips back to New York. Generosa suspects that her husband is having an affair.

2000 The Ammon family moves back to New York City, but Ted and Generosa begin living apart. Generosa files for divorce. She wants more than $1 million a year in living expenses.

2000 Generosa finds a new boyfriend, an electrician named Danny Pelosi, whom she hired to supervise the $4 million renovation of her new Manhattan townhouse. Pelosi was a high school dropout with a rap sheet filled mostly with drunk driving charges.

2001 Pelosi becomes a fixture in the Hamptons, even though the Ammons' divorce is still not finalized. Pelosi says that the Ammons have had no communication for nearly two years. By October 2001, the Ammons were close to settling their divorce.

Oct. 22, 2001 Ted Ammon, 52, was found brutally murdered at his East Hampton mansion, just days before the divorce papers were to be signed. Suspects include Generosa and Pelosi. Investigators later learn that Generosa would inherit most of Ammon's fortune -- despite their pending divorce.

Early 2002 Generosa and the Ammon's two children move to Pelosi's hometown, Center Moriches, Long Island. Generosa and Danny Pelosi get married. Generosa, 46, learns she is dying from breast cancer.

Summer 2003 Generosa leaves Pelosi in July and moves with her two children back to the Ammon's East Hampton mansion. The same month, Pelosi signs a $2 million postnuptial agreement.

August 2003 Generosa, 47, dies of breast cancer on Aug. 22, 2003. In her will, Generosa appoints her current caretaker Kay Mayne, 57, as guardian of her 13-year-old twins.

August 2003 Mayne would have use of the East Hampton mansion for life, and $1 million. The twins would receive the bulk of her remaining fortune. Her will makes no mention of Pelosi.

August 2003 Pelosi takes Generosa's ashes, and is pictured in the New York Post a few days later with her ashes in a box next to him at the bar at the Stanhope Hotel, their hangout.

Fall 2003 Alexa is living with Mayne in the East Hampton mansion, the same house where her father was murdered. Her twin brother, Gregory, has been sent to boarding school in New Hampshire.

Fall 2003 The twins write to their former court-appointed lawyer complaining about Mayne. After an emergency court hearing, a judge orders an investigation that is still under way.

Fall 2003 Pelosi, still the prime suspect in the murder of Ted Ammon, continues to challenge Generosa’s will and the agreement that he signed in July 2003. While vacationing in Hawaii, he was charged with assaulting a person on a boat ride. He denies the charge.

Fall 2003 Ted Ammon's sister, Sandi Williams, continues her battle for custody over the twins. A judge has decided to call a hearing on this matter.

March 2004 Daniel Pelosi is arraigned on a second-degree murder charge and held without bail. He had surrendered hours earlier. His attorney enters a plea of innocent on his behalf. He faces 25 years to life in prison if convicted.

Sept. 2004 Just before the trial of Daniel Pelosi, prosecutor Janet Albertson alleges that the defendant threatened her children, tried tampering with a juror and admitted committing the crime. "I don't have to have a defendant threaten my own children," says Albertson.

Dec. 13, 2004 Daniel Pelosi is convicted of murder Dec. 13, 2004, in the 2001 bludgeoning death of millionaire Ted Ammon. Jurors deliberated over three days before reaching a decision. The verdict caps an eight-week trial.
