Drew Screws Over His Own Children

When the alleged "last will, etc" was drawn up on March 2, 1997, the following assets were listed:
.
Golden Rule life insurance 100K
Monumental life insurance 125K
Prudential life insurance (against tavern) 308K
Two houses
Interest in three corporations (a bar & 2 money shelters):
*the tavern
*a graphics company
*25 % of house flipping venture
Plus his pension (in excess of 50K), various cars & stuff.

Kathleen Savio was murdered sometime in the morning of March 1, 2004.

This will was "found" and filed on March 16, 2004, 15 days AFTER Kathleen’s death on March 1, 2004. Shortly before she was murdered, Kathleen told her sister that she had a new will made and would get her a copy of it. She died before that could happen.
.
We know now that Drew had her phones tapped. He probably knew she had a new will. Unbeknownst to Drew however, Kathleen had already changed the beneficiary for the $1 million life insurance policy to her two sons. That must have really pissed him off.
.
By the time the will was filed, the various life insurance policies had been replaced by a $1 million life insurance policy on Kathleen, the houses were gone, replaced by the house at 392 Pheasant Chase Drive in Bolingbrook. Drew had acquired his house at 6 Pheasant Drive Court jointly with a teenager using a forged document, their vehicles were newer, the businesses were gone, and all the profit from the sale of the tavern had been pocketed by Drew.
.
Kathleen’s divorce had been represented by Attorney Harry Smith of Rice & Smith, Ltd, who then carried on as Kathleen’s estate attorney. Drew was represented by Alex Beck and subsequently by Joseph Mazzone. Why did Alex Beck quit Drew?
.
August 11, 2004 Affidavit signed by Alex Morelli and Gary L Marcolina verifying that they had witnessed the signing of the found will on March 2 1997. Notarized by Nicole A. Payne, Notary Public. Who are these two knuckleheads, and who is Nicole Payne? Drew was also a notary, so we know they will let just anyone do it.
.
October, 2004 Closed on sale of Kathleen’s house at 392 Pheasant Chase Drive. $288,+++ was held in escrow for estate.

.
March 23, 2005 Judge Lechwar admitted the Will to probate and appointed James Carroll as executor of the estate.
.
March 23 2005 James Carroll immediately fired Attorney Harry Smith.
.
April 8, 2005 a “Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage” was entered by Judge Michael Powers “upon agreement of the parties as to all issues.” The Judge awarded (as agreed upon by Drew’s uncle James Carroll) Drew Peterson the money from the bar, the house and further provided that Drew Peterson would not be obligated to fund any college expenses for the minor children due to the fact that the life insurance had been payable to the children, and not him. For crying out loud...
.
Richard J Kavanaugh, Public Administrator of Will County and former Administrator of the Estate of Kathleen Savio from April 21, 2004 to January 30, 2006, submitted final report on Kathleen’s estate.

Mr Kananaugh specifically stated in the final estate report, page 3, “The actions of the Executor were not in the best interest of the Estate or its beneficiaries.” But still it was accepted by the Will County Circuit court clerk and filed on February 7, 2006.

How can this happen? Is this psycho just so good that he can manipulate every person around him? That is what I see STILL happening.


Mr. Kavanaugh conferred with Kathleen’s original divorce attorney Harry Smith who emphasized that there were three items to settle prior to a final settlement:
(1) whether Kathleen’s estate would be entitled to any portion of Drew Peterson’s pension;
(2) the valuation of the tavern which had been sold with all of the proceeds going to Drew Peterson, and
(3) the value of the house, specifically whether Kathleen’s estate would be entitled to receive not just one-half, but an additional portion to offset the cash Drew had kept from the sale of the bar.
.
It was verbally agreed that Kathleen would receive all of the proceeds from the house sale, because Drew had kept the money from the tavern. The house netted $288,235 and would have been split among not only her two sons, but with Drew’s sons by his first wife. (No doubt per the old will, but not the new.) But then the attorney was fired and the case was settled all within Drew’s little family.
.
Drew corrected that simply by having his uncle Jim give everything to him. There was no one there to protect the rights of Kathleen’s boys; who would suspect that their own father would attempt to screw them out of their inhieritence. Now Drew gets an additional 2K per month for her kids from Social Security.
.
I have never seen such a calculating, self-serving, narcissistic, manipulative person, let alone a parent, who would, in writing, disassociate himself from his children in this manner, so coldly and cruelly after having murdered both their mother and step-mother. We can only hope he is not raising another generation just like him.
