Savio Family vs Drew Peterson Readers Digest Version
Below: All that's left of Kathleen Savio
To try to more clearly explain the divorce assets that were still being negotiated when Kathleen died, the major points were:
1. proceeds from the sale of the tavern "Blue Lightning Corporation" (amount not stated, but already paid to Drew.)
2. proceeds from the sale of the house at 392 Pheasant Chase Drive ($287,154,) Kathleen was in the process of moving out when she was murdered.
3. Drew's accrued retirement.
Drew's attorney was Alex Beck who was later replaced by Joseph Mazzone.
Harry Smith was Kathleen's divorce attorney. When she died, Richard J Kavanaugh, Public Administrator of Will County, administrated her final estate working with Harry Smith.
Consensus was that since Drew had kept all of the money from the sale of the tavern, Kathleen would keep more than her 50% percent of the sale of the home to offset the tavern sale, up to 100%. Drew wasn't able to show documentation of how much he had received.
Although Kathleen's new will was never found, Drew came across an "old" double (husband and wife) will, hand written by him, supposedly from years ago, that left everything to him or ALL of his children, and naming his uncle to be executor. The divorce knocked him off the beneficiary list. Any funds from the sale of the house should have become the inheritance on her two sons, (144K would be half, up to 287K, total sale price.)
I believe the will is a fake since it took Drew a whole month to come up with it, and Donna could not find the new will Kathleen told her she had written. Whomever the witnesses are on the old one have probably testified before the Grand Jury already as to when they signed and if they witnessed.
Then the quit-claim deed that Kathleen supposedly signed so that Drew could buy a house with Stacy while still legally married to Kathleen. Her signature was forged then notarized by himself. He is certainly bold.
The day the judge accepted the will, James B Carrol, Drew's uncle, fired her attorney, Harry Smith and settled the estate by giving all the assets to Drew, explaining that the boys had the $1million dollar life insurance policy, so he made the decision to give Drew the rest of her estate.
Drew was so angry that Kathleen had changed her life insurance beneficiaries to her sons, he not only stole the 287+K from his own sons, but he stipulated in HER estate settlement that he will not be responsible for those two children's college educations. I have never heard of such a thing. He's probably excluded them from his own estate because of it.
**********************************************************************************
Now the Savio family wants what was stolen from her sons when Kathleen died. The sale from the proceeds from the house, at least $287,154, belongs to Kathleen's sons, not to mention any monies recieved from the sale of her car, jewelry and house full of personal property.
Drew, his sons Steven, Eric, Anthony and daughter Lacy have no claim to Kathleen's estate.
Wrongful death will come, but in the meantime, they will win this case on the estate. It's simple mathematics and obvious fraud.
