Simple answer no.
I think you need to detach the actual crime from the story here and think about the idea.
You should not be able to claim after the 6 year period just because the criminal comes into money. It is not crime dependant in my opinion. As stated you are punished by the court, that should be the end of it. Surely this would be like punishing the criminal twice.
