Read affidavit from my father's cousin, Irene Petres (November 10, 2004), who says that Maria told a different story about the events that took place on the day my father was murdered, saying "...she would bring him a cup of coffee...when she brought him the coffee, he was dead in his chair." Yet, during the 911 call and in her Florida affidavit, Maria said that my father died in bed during an afternoon nap. But, what does the only witness to the murder say? Click here to read the statement from the "ear witness" who called my father for a pre-scheduled telephone conference while he was being murdered by Maria placed January 13, 2003.

A WARNING TO ALL FLORIDA FAMILIES: GOVERNOR JEB BUSH ALLOWS FIRST DEGREE MURDER TO BE COMMITTED IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA WHEN IT SUITS HIS AGENDA TO DO SO, OR WHEN HE NEEDS TO PROTECT HIS FRIENDS. Governor Bush and the corrupt law enforcement members who are listed above as participants in the obstruction of justice are allowing the murderer of a minor's grandfather to steal the inheritance that his Grandfather intended to be used for his college fund.

FDLE IS NOTHING BUT A PRIVATE COVERUP SERVICE FOR GOVERNOR JEB BUSH AND HIS GANG OF CORRUPT LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS WHO HAVE SEEN TO IT THAT A MURDERER CONTINUES TO GO UNPUNISHED Another Florida Family Claims Law Enforcement Is "Doing All They Can To Make Sure Nobody Is Held Accountable For A Murder" WHY DOES GOVERNOR BUSH INTERVENE IN SOME SITUATIONS, WHILE CHOOSING TO IGNORE OTHERS? For three years my family and I have requested that Governor Bush appoint a special prosecutor to investigate my father’s death. Many times, Governor Bush has been provided proof that my father was murdered. Many times, he has been provided proof that the Sarasota Sheriff’s Office (SSO) has, in fact, been protecting my father’s killer and obstructing justice. Many times, Governor Bush has been provided proof that his Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) has falsified information in order to protect both my father’s killer and members of SSO who have been involved in the cover up, including his Republican ally Sheriff Balkwill. Governor Jeb Bush has proven that he does not value life or families—unless it satisfies his political agenda or helps his friend’s families or his own. My story is proof. Governor Bush told my family that he cannot get involved in our case because the Florida Statutes don’t allow him to. (Click Here) Read the article in which Governor Bush contradicts himself. (Click Here) In North Florida, the murder of a 14 year old young man was captured on video. Governor Bush had no choice but to do the right thing in that case. On the west coast of Florida, an elderly man (my father) was poisoned (with a banned substance called Corazol) by his wife of three weeks almost half his age. The killer is a Juvenile Probation Officer for Sarasota County and an employee of the State of Florida. There is a 911 recording which captures my father’s voice as he is being murdered. The Sarasota Sheriff’s Department and FDLE altered the recording (which has been proven), to protect my father’s killer and enable Governor Bush to protect his political allies who are involved in this obstruction of justice and murder cover up. Governor Jeb Bush cannot do the right thing in my case because his political loyalties take priority over the laws of our state and our country. Who gave Governor Bush the right to play God? ~Steven Cohen Esdale |

Mr. Chase and My Father's Killer Finally Made Their Biggest Slip-Up! AND, Whose Back Is Good Ole' Earl Moreland Covering For?

Mr. Lord's Affidavit page 1, page 2 According to Sarasota County Medical Examiner Russell Vega, State Attorney Earl Moreland says that if Corazol were found in my father's body following exhumation and forensic examination, this would be insufficient evidence for filing criminal charges.

"Is my Father's killer being protected because she is part of this group"? Sarasota Newsbrief: Sarasota Police Lure Would-Be Drug Dealers for Profit
Fox 5 in New York aired the story... On December 13 at 10 pm, investigative reporter Mark Joyella of WNYW covered the story. Fox 13 Tampa Bay aired the story... Investigative Reporter Doug Smith of the Fox News station WTVT aired a segment Monday, Nov 7 on the 10 o'clock news.
Justice finally coming to light after nearly three year effort by son... The Herald Tribune's latest story announces "One of the nation's top forensic audio specialists said he can hear a man ask for an ambulance in the background of a 911 call, even though the only man in the room at the time was supposed to be dead." The report by Paul Ginsberg, who was hired by the Herald-Tribune to analyze the call, casts new doubt on the official version of Murray Cohen's Jan. 13, 2003, death. Maria Cohen's attorney, Steven Chase, said Cohen was unavailable for comment.

In pursuit of justice, I now face defamation of my character? The Florida Department of Law Enforcement report - where they call me mentally unstable and "be on the lookout flyers" have been distributed to the SSO and all FDLE field offices FDLE Public Records Request - my request for an unedited version This Is How The FDLE Report Came To Me Originally (censored) - mentally unstable and "be on the lookout flyers" sections are blacked out
FDLE response stating that no flyers exist (this conflicts directly with the original FDLE letter stating flyers were sent to the Sarasota Sheriffs Office - SSO) Sarasota County Sheriffs Office Sheriff Balkwill's response - my request for whereabouts of comment on mental stability Sarasota County Sheriffs Office General Counsel's response - regarding the mental health statement in the FDLE letter FDLE Report - SA Siemers carefully crafted report about locating the 911 operator with the exclusion of mentioning the 911 operator did remember the call
