Kathleen Savio's death #3

[mysteriew]

The way I understand it is that the article refers to the father meaning Kathleen Savio's father. The brother and one sister filed suit and their suit seeks to block Kathleen's father from gaining control of the estate. Kathleen's father and another sister then filed suit in response, they are seeking to gain control of the estate.

Savio's family files petition

I think this article helps to clarify. In the first petition to reopen the estate of Kathleen Savio filed by Anna Marie Doman and her brother Henry M. Savio they are asking to be named executors to Kathleen's estate.
In the petition they also allege that their father, Henry J. Savio, is "unfit to serve due to hostility in that he has had no relationship with any of the children while they were growing up," failed to support them financially, and "first met his grandchildren at the funeral of Kathleen and has no relationship with them."

The second petition is being filed by Henry J. (the father) and Susan (a sister of some sort). Susan, and presumably the father, are the ones that put up that strange website asking for money. It no longer asks for money but talks about putting on some special event. Its very lame.

CORRECTION: The "kathleenkittysavio" website was done by Susan Doman and Nicholas Savio, a half brother. Here is a Joe Hosey article about it:

Unfortunately this bolsters the comment made by DP something about Kathleen coming from a troubled family. And it also may explain why DrewP didn't call her family when he allegedly couldn't get an answer at her door.

I reluctantly believe that the way he did it was in some ways a good strategy. He got her friend Mary to go with him, and took his friend Steve to counteract Mary if she didn't believe his acts of shock and grief.

Why don't these family members know or understand that any kind of split in a family, are in the eyes of the public, courts, etc. are not helping in the cause of apprehending the individual who, by all accounts, took their loved one away from them??

With the info that is coming out, I believe the split we are seeing is from past history and maybe a long time split. It can be hard to forget or at least to ignore childhood problems. But I agree, in this situation it would best serve them to come together and try to find some middle ground to stand on and present a unified front- at least in public and in the court system. Otherwise, there is a chance that this could all get off track.

Drew Peterson's Sons Receive Grand Jury Subpoenas

Wednesday, February 27, 2008

"Drew Peterson's two sons with third wife Kathleen Savio are expected to appear Thursday morning before a grand jury investigating the death of their mother, FOX News' Greta Van Susteren reported.

Sources close to the Peterson investigation told Van Susteren four police officers arrived at the ex-police sergeant's house at 9 a.m. Wednesday.

Peterson answered the door and they asked to see 13-year-old Christopher and 15-year-old Tom.

When they came to the door, police served them each with a grand jury subpoenas."

This puts a little crimp in Drew's trip to New York, where he will be appearing on the Today Show while his kids are at the grand jury.

This is a big clue on where the grand jury is heading. Hopefully, an arrest warrant isn't too far behind.

Did Boilingbrook children have school off yesterday? It seems odd to me that at 9AM the two boys would be home from school.

 

[mymeow]

Did anyone else see the prior grand juror (from the coroner's inquest after Kathleen was murdered) on TV this AM? I can't find the link anywhere, but I believe it was on GMA and he stated he had misgivings about the coroner's report during the hearing and would vote differently now knowing what he knows about the case.
He even noted regret that perhaps if they didn't dismiss Kathleen's death as an accident, Stacey would still be here.
(Sorry if that sounds confusing)

I pray this is brought to justice soon.

It could have been a snow day or snow delay.

Thanks Mystery that would make sense.

 

[Lisa Too]

Thanks Mystery that would make sense.

No, we had no snow today, or yesterday, for that matter. There is snow predicted overnight tonight, however.

 

[DeltaDawn]

Thank you Lisa Too. Drew was probably going to take them to NY or he had a heads up they were being served for testimony before the GJ that morning and kept them home so this wouldn't happen at school. That's probably why the LE that served them came in vests and in a group, because they didn't know what to expect of Drew.

I was reading the timelines again at ACandyRose.com site and found something I had completely forgotten. The bar that Drew and Kathleen owned had already been sold prior to her death. Infact Drew kept all the money from that sale. Understandably he and Kathleen had been arguing and fighting over that issue. The impending settlement of their property was coming up, but this was prior to that. That settlement would have ended this issue once and for all. More then likely it would have been divided atleast 50/50.

I guess I am trying to say that Drew had already sold property of theirs and saw what a fight he was in for with Kathleen. I had forgotten that the bar had already been sold. So, if he did away with Kathleen, no more fighting and everything is his.

Then before Stacy dies they are fighting frequently according to friends and famiy. Could it be Drew is just one of those men that can't stand fighting with his spouse to the point that he kills them because they have become too much trouble? According to Ric Mims Stacy was a yeller when they argued, he said you could hear her all over the house. Drew is a control freak and fighting signals you are not in control of this person any longer. They are going to say and do as they feel. So if he can't have control, can't stand the fighting, he permanently ends the relationship in a way that gives him the most control over everything..kids, houses, businesses, the money and calm is restored to his unhappy home?

Just rambling here JMHO

I didn't realize the bar had been sold prior to the final property settlement between DP and Kathleen. I'm sure the judge would have split the profit from that sale 50/50. There was probably other financial matters to be settled too, meaning that DP would be forced to getting only half of everything.

When it comes to LE trying to determine a motive for a crime - who stands to gain - DP was the only person who would gain in the event of Kathleen's death. And, when you look at the crime itself, why did it happen? There was no report that Kathleen was sexually assaulted, so it wasn't a crime of rape; there wasn't a report of the home being ransacked and items taken, so it wasn't a murder in the course of a robbery. Kathleen was murdered and there was no motivation behind the crime at first glance. It's only when you examine what was going on in Kathleen's life at that time, and the pending property settlement, that you find a motive for her murder.

With Stacy, it's basically the same story. In the beginning, shortly after Stacy's disappearance, one of DP's early statements was that Stacy would ask for a divorce about once a month. He attributed it to her cycle and depression over the death of her sister. Like a true narcissist, DP wasn't to blame for his wife wanting a divorce.

DP had been down the road to divorce enough times to know that financially he would lose. He'd end up sharing the children too and he'd lose control. But this time around there was an added incentive to doing away with Stacy. She knew the circumstances of Kathleen's death. In this sense, Stacy was in control. Her knowledge of DP's role in Kathleen's death gave her the control that no other previous wife had. Stacy had the power to put DP in prison.

I believe it was Stacy's knowledge that led to her death, more than anything else.

Don't forget that along with other assets, DrewP could have been required to split his pension with the wives also. That is a biggie, something that many officers complain about. "They work for the pension, then the court gives a share of it to the ex."

About Pensions, I'm sure this varies State by State. In my State a Spouse has to be married for a required period of time to be entitled to any part of the others Pension.

Also, a Spouse is not entitled to half of what's in the account, but rather half of the amount contributed during their married years together.

Like I said, this varies State by State like so many laws regarding divorce.

 

[mysteriew]

Yes but I have seen people complaining about that many times. It seems to be a hot button issue that the ex spouse could get any part of their pension. (and not just with cops but with other eligible pensioners also.)

 

[DeltaDawn]

I think in Kathleen's postion with my ex-husband already selling off property we jointly owned and keeping all the profits that would have really done it for me. She tried to play nice by granting him an easy early divorce. Then he seemed to have no interest in her ( thereby the boys still living with her) other then making her life a total hell. He had made it abundantly clear that he would not play fair..not even when it came to the finances.

She was fighting for what was rightly hers. The court date was looming and she knew no matter how that was settled she would be in court with him for years..appeals, etc. He knew that too. This is where push came to shove..Drew took what he wanted and was not about to have some court tell him it should be any other way. In the end he was right..he got his Uncle Carrol to take care of the property settlement and the insurance settlements after she died. Drew was not going to be a loser..especially not one controlled by any woman or his children. Stacy should have seen what awaited her..but love is blind..especially young love. With her maturity ..she finally saw the writing on the wall and tried her best to let other people know and begin to get out from under Drew. Just as Kathleen had done herself.

Still I think it is very telling that Drew already sold the bar and kept the profits and they ( he and Kathleen) were fighting about that issue right before she was murdered.

The original autopsy for Kathleen Savio declared her death an accident. Now investigators say it's a homicide, and the original coroner is under fire.

That coroner is speaking out Thursday for the first time, exclusively to CBS 2 West Suburban Bureau Chief Mike Puccinelli.

And the attorney for Savio and missing woman Stacy Peterson is breaking his silence.
