Good
morning
Mary. First, let me start by saying thank you for visiting my site and
I
sincerely hope that you were able to visit some of the other pages of
the
children who were murdered by either their parent, a stepparent or a
boyfriend/girlfriend of a parent. My site contains the names and
stories of so
many children who died directly or indirectly at the hands of those who
were
supposed to look after them and that is a sad, disgusting fact.
Education is
the key and if people read the stories and use their heads and put
their
children first, lives could be saved.
Now, about
your mail to me.
The page on my site about Cohen, the
child YOU promised the Children's Aid Society would never be left alone
with
Terry Legacy, contains no false information at all. Nothing on that
page could
affect a case in any way. If you feel it would, I'm sorry, I am leaning
toward
a better explanation for your e-mail to me, you don't want
anything
out there that puts you in a negative light. Sorry, Mary, the fact is
that you
made a promise to the Children's Aid Society and you broke it. I would
guess
that if you were to be tried by the people, you'd be convicted already
and
nothing I or any other website can say or do will change facts and/or
make your
case better or worse. Your child is dead, nothing will bring him back,
you
allowed a child abuser to be alone with your child and that child
abuser KILLED
your child. You can't change that. Your promise to protect your child,
was as
empty as your soul, in my opinion of course.
Let's
examine that fact -
You told them, let me quote what was
said:
"She
kept reassuring us that
Cohen
wasn't left with Terry"
Dominic
Verticchio - Children's Aid
Society"
Let's
figure out what is
wrong with this...If at ANY time in the
life of my child I had been making a promise NOT to leave someone alone
with
him, that would be a red flag to me that I shouldn't BE with that
person. Do
you see what I am saying here, Mary? You CHOSE to be with a man who you
KNEW
you had promised would not be alone with your child. Your child DIED at
the
hands of that man, you are partly to blame for the death of your son,
in the
opinion of myself and many others. You're certainly not alone in that
blame,
first and most disgustingly is Terry Legacy and secondly is you, since
you were
the MOTHER of that precious baby boy who allowed him to be alone with a
child
abuser who eventually killed him. Right behind you in line is the
Children's Aid
Society who allowed poor Cohen to live in a home with a mother who
CHOSE to
live with a man who she had to make empty promises about. They
obviously
thought he was a danger to Cohen or they would not have asked you not
to leave
him alone with Terry.
Word is
that you tried to
blame the Children's Aid Society
claiming that if they had done a better job of investigating when
Cohen's hip
was broken, you would have left Terry. Are you kidding me right now?
How DARE
you blame them for this. YOU knew what he was and you put your children
in
danger without regard for them at all, every time you left him alone
with them.
You didn't care, plain and simple and now an innocent child is dead.
The only
good thing about that is that he will no longer suffer at the hands of
Terry
and his mother.
You say
that you have been
given back custody of your other
children? Is that supposed to impress me or worry me? I can tell you
right now
I am worried. Do you honestly believe that an organization that is
SUPPOSED to
be looking out for children and then gives custody of those children to
a
mother who already allowed one of her children to die at the hands of a
man who
she put BEFORE her infant son, is going to impress me at all? Sorry,
they
disgust me as much as anyone else in this case. YOU have proven that
you are an
unfit mother who thinks of herself and her own wants and needs above
those of
your child who, remember, is dead because you chose to be with a man
who you
had to promise not to leave alone with your child. Let's hope that
guardian
Angels are watching out over the others, because I am of the belief
that they
are in desperate need of that.
All of his
may sound harsh
to you, Mary. However, just think about
how harsh it was on your son to be alone with that man doing God knows
what to
him any time he wanted knowing you would do nothing to stop him. Who
knows how
much suffering Cohen did before he was killed by the man you CHOSE to
keep in
his life. YOU could have saved Cohen's life by getting rid of Terry. We
all
make mistakes, Mary, however, we don't all allow our children to be
killed for
our mistakes. Children should ALWAYS come first, not boyfriends.
Go ahead
and have your
police or your crown contact me, I don't
care. The story will stay up. HUNDREDS of stories about Cohen will stay
up,
because they are the facts and Cohen deserves the facts to be told. He
deserves
justice just like you said and taking down his stories won't accomplish
that at
all. Justice will be the day that Terry is convicted and HOPEFULLY,
though
doubtfully, spends the rest of his life in prison. Justice will be the
day
someone more deserving takes your children and raises them with the
best
interest of your children in mind, instead of their own.
You want
protection from
sites like mine? Believe me there are
plenty of stories, most of them NEWS stories, about this case. Cohen
wanted
protection from Terry and he didn't get it. You deserves no less than
what you
gave to your son.
One thing
good came from
your e-mail to me, I am going to be updating
Cohen's pages in the next few days. That update will include our
correspondence
and any from your police or crown or whoever else contacts me. Cohen
deserves
his full story to be told, even the fact that his mother wants to hide
things.
Have as
good of a day as you
are able,
Sharon
Then
I received
this e-mail from some saying they are Cohen's grandmother:
I do not know where
you got some of your information or pictures of my
grandson on your site but some of the things mentioned are not
correct
or factual. The murder of my grandson is painful enough without seeing
pictures
that are personal and should not be posted for the general public. I am disappointed that anyone
can put anything on the internet as factual and post personal pictures.
And so begins
another round of B.S.:
February

ok i am the mother of one of the children
u have posted on ur site ,, cohen legacy,,let me just ask you this
,,where
did you get ur information,,its so inaccurate,,,i am going to have to
contact the crown attorney on my sons case
because information about the case is not supposed to be released,,yes
i agree his name needs to be
remembered and so does the story but not without the proper
facts,,there is also a public bane on the case u
just esposed some info so I will be contacting the courts and u will be
hearing from the court house and possibly
facing charges obstruction of justic,,,,so u need to wait till the
court is over which is the end of march to pot ur
information plus the truth will be out finally over that,,,wouldnt u
want to be accurate in ur information...u r messing
with a babys justic,,,,thank u from mary smith,,, mother of cohen legacy
My
thoughts about this are that Mary has something she is trying to hide.
I'm not sure about this so called "public bane", however, any and ALL
information
that I have on Cohen's page comes directly from the internet news
sources. I am not sure what information iI
have "just exposed", I trust there is none. My response to Mary this
time was a bit more hostile
than last time. I sent this e-mail to her on the morning of the 24th of
February, 2012:
Good morning to you again, Mary Smith. You
seem to forget that you have already contacted me about this. I
believe it was your mother who also contacted me? I am not sure of who
that other person was. ANY and ALL
information about this case, no my site, came DIRECTLY from online news
sources. I'm sorry you feel the need
to try to cover up whatever it is you did by threatening me. If you are
threatening me, you'd need to be threatening
ALL of the news sources online as well because they provide TONS of
information I have yet to include on my
page. I didn't expose anything has not not been on the internet for
years. YOU just might face harassment charges
if you keep threatening me and harassing me about this through e-mail.
As a person who KNOWS her rights and
knows what is and is not allowed to be posted on the internet, you
should know you are in the danger zone as far
as harassing me. Justice is not obstructed by ONE webpage when there
are many many more out there giving
much more information. You will NEVER be able to cover up what you did
and what happened to your son as
a result of the that. Facts that say are not supposed to be out there,
that I am supposedly revealing on my site,
came from the internet where ANYONE can read them.
I am
not messing with the justice for a
baby, I doubt that anything on my site is going to affect anything in
court.
YOU Seem to have a
problem realized that YOU promised the Childrens's
Protective agency that you would NOT
leave your child alone
with a man who you knew did drugs and hurt your
child in the past. Your child is dead
because YOU broke that
promise. YOU are just as responsible as the man
who actually did the killing. NEVER
would I have left my son
alone with someone with so many red flags
going up. You chose a man over your child,
you need to learn to
live with that and stop thinking that the threats
you are throwing out are going to do anything
other than be laughed at.
I have SEEN the picture of the cigarette
burn you other child had and you denied it was a cigarette burn when
CLEARLY it was. I have debated about if I should put that picture on my
site as well. I guess it's time for me to do
some updating on Cohen's tragic story. YOU allowed your children to be
abused and one of them to be kill,
YOU DID THAT. Face up to what you did and stop bothering me.
Don't you think it's time for you to
accept your part in all of this and stop trying to change the facts?
You can refer
back to my site and check the link at the bottom of Cohen's page to see
what I said to you the LAST time you
contacted me. I am pretty sure that I was contacted about this case by
someone else this morning. I didn't
connect the story when I was told about the "Boy with the broken hip"
until I went back and read the story after
you contacted me. Look for updates as they are available.
Have a
good day, Mary, if you can. My own
conscience is clear of any wrongdoing. I wish that you would have
been able to say the
same, for the life of your child. May he rest in
peace, in the arms of Jesus, who loves him
and always has!
While
going through my e-mails on the
morning of February 24, 2012, I found yet ANOTHER e-mail from Mary.
Keep in mind, I had not yet replied to the e-mail from the 23rd when
she thought it was a good thing to send me another one:
no it does
not matter to me what other people think
or say but
what matters to me
is that people are putting the case at risk, i
personally don't care what anyone things because
me, cohen and my
other children know the truth and another thing ,,the
truth always comes out and when the court
stuff is over the
truth will finally be out ,, i guess it is hard for
people to believe that an agency that is supposed to
protect children
failed and lied, childrens aide always has the power.
so again i don't care what you or any one
else thinks , i
have my kids and they are happy and we know the truth,
so you write whatever you want, but just
keep in mind my
sons deserves justice and that is all i care about, so
you enjoy putting any thing you feel like
putting cause the
truth always comes out and will when everything is
over !!!!!!!!
It seems odd,
doesn't it, that Mary didn't
threaten me in this one? Did she perhaps realize that she had already
contacted
me about this
and with the same threats? Whatever the case, the fact that she has her
children STILL does not
impress me. It just shows a lack of judgment on the part of those who
feel a woman who covered up for
one man and allowed her child to die, is capable of raising and
protecting her other children. Funny, she even says they "Failed and
lied" and she's
proud of the fact that they gave her children back to her? I guess he
has no way of seeing how
ridiculous that truly is.
You
Tube:
Found on You Tube after a video featuring Cohen's story with pictures.
This was found in March
of 2012. It says
it was posted a month before that. I find it sickening
that she says that God stole her son from
her when the
person who actually allowed her child to be taken from
her, was her. I have also been informed
that Mary has lost
custody of her other children. I put * in the cuss
words she used. Interesting also is the fact
that she says
"Terry will get what he deserves" instead of calling him
the child's father. NEITHER of these two
are fit to parents
in my opinion and she has a lot of nerve to even
THINK that anyone believes her lies:
A
petition was started
online for those asking that Terry Cohen be kept in prison, some
interesting conversation
going on there.
While everyone knows that online petitions do not carry
any weight legally, I find it interesting that
this woman, Mary
Smith, who told me there is a public ban on talking
about her case, would show up on this
petition and she
and her mother both made fools of themselves with
their comments. The comments have been
left exactly as
they were posted
