June 6, 2005: Bob Stevenson's reply to Perry MacDonald's undated notes
Permission to use from the author, Bob Stevenson
I am deeply distressed to read the supposed words of Mrs. MacDonald, as I had thought more of her as a common sense person than that. The reason I did not want to address any of them was because I would have to vilify the dead............which is a classless act and unnecessary unless her erroneous and harmful statements which are probably libel or slander, whichever applies to print........but she is dead now and cannot be sued. At any rate, I sadly had to answer her and advise others of her fraudulent claims.
My responses to her false accusations and statements as vituperative as they were are intended to go on the website..............the reason I did not want to address any of them I never explained to you until now.
It appears that she is as big a liar as her son and also an assassin...........an assassin of the spirit in making false statements......... As a result all I can say is that it is obvious that "the apple falls not far from the tree" and that she is a transparent liar or a grossly ignorant woman blinded by envy, or a desperate woman hoping to save her son.
I would like to think it was pure stupidity, but clearly some is colored with jealousy and a need to discredit others......the normal and now I see hereditary trait of the MacDonald Family.
I just do not know where to begin with her bullshit.
First, Mildred and Freddy were never broke or in need for a day in their lives.......or how could they have left me a paid for house (worth significant figures in money) and a bank account, Real Estate Trusts, stocks etc.
So much for that bullshit....she dishonored herself in her need to cover her envy because my mother and father could buy and sell the MacDonalds financially in Patchogue from a net worth standpoint.
She was a School Nurse....he worked at Brookhaven Labs.
My father owned his own restaurant and did.....very well.....I had the speedboat, the hot rod, the nice clothes....not them.
Eventually they pooled the family money to buy Jeff's father a boat late in his life....
Also, if you read my mother's testimony you will see that she made significant loans to Colette and Jeff through a "floating fund" as it was called, and if they could pay some back she let them so they could keep their pride....but she never wanted the money back.........
Oh...there is the Freddy never worked bit! And my mother was supposedly trolling for a rich man when she married Freddy.
Once again she is a liar, or stupid and unknowledgeable; or vacuously disingenuous in smearing what she did not know about.......
Freddy had a building business in which they put up tract homes, financed by "Kassab Family" money....but he never worried about in whose name anything was.....he was a kind and trusting man...and after all this was his mother...
His mother was not a nice lady however, and she did NOT want him to marry my mother and I was told she even tried to pay off his former wife so she would not give him a divorce so he could not marry my mother..........
He decided to leave the corporation....the business...with just his Cadillac and the clothes on his back because he loved Mildred that much; and she, knowing this married him knowing he came with only love....no money; so that should handle her notion that my mother was a gold digger...
But then, envy was still there....the Kassabs opened a high priced clothier store in Patchogue and it made a lot of money for a while, and when it did not they closed it and he ended up a wholesaler of mass quantity of eggs to industry internationally because of his multilingual abilities and was Vice President of Sales for Quality Egg Company in New Jersey.......Maybe the envy came from the fact that her husband was such a passive man and Freddy ended up the dynamo who pinned and beat her son...neither a weak nor a financially needy man........she lied again!
Then there is the piece about why is my father's marker so plain?
Because when that cemetery was just opened is when the plots were bought and they only allowed the unseen marker, flush to the ground, with a simple bronze pull up earn later or just a simple plaque.....but she didn't know about that so just use it to smear the Kassab's as usual.
Oh, yeah....and I had "to be summoned to my sister's funeral?".....THE WORST ABOMINATION OF A LIE I CAN CONCIEVE OF!! May she spin in her grave for that one......nor was I chewed out for my dress....As I recall I was in a suit. No, there were not a lot of Stevenson's there....there were only a few....but all those of relevance were there I assure you.............MORE CHARACTER ASSASINATION.........now we know where Jeff learned his stock in trade!
And no, Aunt Helen and the family did NOT want my sister getting pregnant....they wanted her to finish college first and the reason my sister was sent to live with Helen then was my Mother had gone to California and my sister was left to live with me and my wife, Vivian; but of course we were very young, and after careful thought my mother and Helen decided that Colette could be better supervised and PROTECTED from Jeff's sexuality by having her stay with an OLDER person who would be more likely to exercise control than I.
As to my parents being willing to or preferring to bury the broken and tortured little bodies at Fort Bragg; they would not hear of that or allow that if it cost them their last penny..........and if they did not want their bodies in the MacDonald cemetery plots it was solely because they lacked the quality and solitude of our family plot in their eyes….AND THEY WERE STEVENSON'S not MacDonald's............any more than this is the Jeffrey MacDonald murder case............HE WAS NOT MURDERED........THEY WERE, AND BY THEIR VISCOUS AND CRUELLY INSANE FATHER. AS A RESULT THIS IS THE COLETTE, KIMBERLEY AND KRISTEN MURDER CASE.................I WISH EVERYONE WOULD GET THAT STRAIGHT.
SHE IS NOT A MACDONALD; please....that is why that name is banned from my family burial plots.
I thought Jeff had disgraced the good name of our family enough.....but evidently Perry wants a piece of the action from wherever she is....too much error for an otherwise intelligent woman unless her attempts to save her son had made her want to say whatever suited the moment......as Jeff still does till this day evidently; based on his continued denial of his absolute guilt.
Re the envy bit;
That is probably longstanding....my mother when married to my father Cowles, drove around in a new Sea Foam green Oldsmobile convertible with all the options wearing a Somali leopard coat.....yes...my mother did enjoy the finer things in life and had many of them in her house, her wardrobe; and her pursuit of life.
The myth of financial need in our family was laughable....my father was in a cash business......and there was a safe.....oh well, the stature of limitations has passed and they are all dead; but no one was ever broke in my family.
Helen may have been one of the most generous people I ever knew, and if she gave each of her sisters money after the sale of the Blue Point house it was because they WERE ENTITLED TO IT............the house had belonged to my Grandmother Catherine Madison and when she died and left the house Helen stayed there as "Deerie" had a business and her own place..........but when she sold the house she felt it was only right to give part of the proceeds to her other sisters.....especially since she planned to live with one or the other of them on and off for the rest of her life.
Leave our finances alone and find something more creative to lie about, please.........like how the world would be better off with a triple murderer back on the streets without repenting of his crime or atoning for it in any way.........now THAT'S creative!
I do not think it is worth more of my valuable time to rebut either the lies or slander of a woman who was obviously angry....eager to strike out at anyone or anything and who did not use the truth. I reject her as I reject her son..........assassins of the heart and of the truth.
Jeffrey MacDonald does not deserve to live, and if HE WERE MURDERED IT WOULD BE THE JEFFREY MACDONALD MURDER CASE...........and that would be just fine with me then.
Sincerely,
Bob Stevenson - Colette Stevenson's brother.
