          October 1989 to February 1998.  She also received Social Security           
          disability benefits of about $494/month, i.e., about $5,928/year,

          1991, 1992, and 1993 applications for recertification to receive            
          AFDC and Medicaid benefits, petitioners stated, under penalties

          no more than $210 in savings.                                               
          C.   The Burglary Ring and Petitioner’s Involvement                         
               Michael Collom (Collom) joined a burglary ring formed by               
          Lyndell Shives (Shives) and Billy Wilson (Wilson) early in the              
          summer of 1997.  The ring targeted farmhouses and construction              
          sites in southwestern Missouri.  The ring committed about 100               
          burglaries, and Collom participated in about half of them.                  
               Collom and his associates sold some of their stolen goods at           
          auctions.  Petitioner met Collom and Shives in June 1997 at an              
          auction in Theodosia, Missouri.  Petitioner wanted to buy goods             
          from them.  From the summer of 1997 to February or early March              
          1998, Collom sold stolen merchandise to petitioner who resold it            
          at auctions.                                                                
          D.   Petitioner’s Safe Deposit Box                                          
               Petitioner rented a safe deposit box at the First National             
          Bank & Trust in Gassville, Arkansas, in December 1987.  He                  
          entered his safe deposit box 53 times from December 1987 to March           
          1998.
