This afternoon the family of Drew Peterson’s third wife filed a wrongful death lawsuit which alleges that the former Bolingbrook police sergeant drowned her in a bathtub.
Kathleen Savio’s family has always believed that there were strange circumstances srrounding her death but they weren’t sure, since it was ruled accidental until her body was exhumed after the fourth wife, Stacey Peterson dissappeared.
Peterson’s attorney has said he believed that the family would file a lawsuit for more than a year, and felt it was going to happen soon, since the appellate court this year upheld a lower court’s decision to take control of Savio’s estate away from Peterson and give it her father Henry Savio and her sister, Anna Doman.
The lawsuit seeks more than $100,000 and alleges Peterson killed Savio before a scheduled trial over the divorced couple’s property.
Peterson has been linked in several ways by others in the dissappearance of his fourth wife, Stacey, although the testimony of his relative who claims to have helped dispose of her has not been made before the courts.
