houseMost New Yorkers are pretty used to tales of landlords evicting tenants in the pursuit of profit maximization. But even the most hardened free-marketeer must have raised his eyebrows at yesterday’s report of two elederly sisters being kicked out of the Cobble Hill townhouse where they grew up by their nephew, Joseph DeLeonibus. Adding another layer of intrigue was the listing for the Cheever Place property on Corcoran: “House is being offered for $999,999, without seeing it, without inspecting it, must close in 30 days, must be all cash and must take tenants in place.” Sounds a little desperate to us. There must be more to the story.

  1. Now that what has happened to my husband is yesterday’s news, I’ve got something to say. To all the asses who made all the cold hearted remarks, get a life. People like you live off others heartache. You people have nothing to do? To all the family members who grew up with my husband and know what kind of person he really is screw all of you. It was all onesided. All you saw were two elders. These elders had their own family to take care of them. I don’t mean Lenny and Patty, the only thing they took care of was Aunt Jeans SS check. Cookie and Frankie wanted nothing to do with their mother. My husband got stuck with her. All they wanted was what she had in the bank. They both have houses with extra rooms. Is that why you put her in a nursing home. It just looked like Lenny was taking care of his mother. It was a roof over his head. He used to live in Prospect Park in the summer and on the trains in the winter. Who had it better then him. My husband put a roof over his head and he used his mothers money and Annie’s furniture. There is a God. I hope all of you get yours. I would never wish anyone harm in the past. Now I only wish you suffer as you made my husband suffer.

  2. Linda Annie was not the kind hearted person you might of thought she was. She said very cruel things about everything and every one. She talked behind everybody’s back including you. I’m sure she said plenty about me. When all this happened with my husband, Katy told me Annie called me the bitch and it was because of me Joseph was doing this. Joe’s grandmother’s silver set, it should of been passed on to me and then my children. True? She gave it to KathyAnn. And Cookie made us know it. There are so many things I can say, but what’s the use.Enough is enough. My only concern is to get back my husbands good mental health. He will never be the same. When he had the breakdown, it was a terrable time for my family. Look a lot of things were said. Most of them in anger. I hope Mandi can realize it wasn’t what we wanted. All of you have a good life. Goodby. Grace.

  7. This is Joseph’s wife Grace. I’v been reading this crap from day one. Everybody new the true story of Lenny. When I married into this family I was very young. I met all of my husbands cousins when I was just 17. Lenny and Anthony were like my brothers. When Anthony died I was sick. I only new Joe’s family. I was Joe’s wife, but I was always on the outside looking in. The last dime in my pocket I would of bet that in the end this would of happened to my husband. Linda, you know Joseph a long time. Can you honestly say he did what everybody is saying. Just the way your friend just defended you, I need to defend my husband. Joe was always there for his mother. She called, he jumped. She would tell him to do for this one and that one, he jumped. Katy, Cookie and Frankie were that part of the family that had to be watched. Before my father-in-law died he said to Joseph and I watch out for them. All the years with Lenny Inever thought he would do that to Joseph. My father-in-law layed in his bed and Lenny robbed the house. Annie would not listen to Joseph or her husband. Annie and Jean would sneek Lenny in the house. Joe and I never entended to sell the house. When Katy came into the picture everything changed. Right from the start she said “why should I pay rent” When my father-in-law died Annie lost his pension. Where do you think the money came from Joseph and I. Annie would not sell the house. We understood why. We had to something and fast. We refinanced our own home to pay for the house on Cheever Place. Jean always worried about Lenny. Joe found him and said I will fix upstairs for you, that would make Jean happy. That turned out to be a mistake Joseph and I always loved Aunt Jean she always made us feel welcomed and glad to see us. My mother-in-law never showed us that. My kids were never close to her either. She never has a nice word to say to them. When they went to kiss her hello, she would turn her head. So they stopped. Again Jean did love us. She would tell Annie to shut up. So Lenny moved in. Lenny would make Jean and Annie cash their SS checks and he would take it all. Joe and I paid for the house, it cost us $5000 to run that house. When Annie died thats when the shit hit the fan. Katy refused to pay rent from the beginning. We had to try to get her out of that house. She caused so mush trouble. If Lenny paid what he promised Joseph it would of helped. I new he would never pay, but my gullable husband, that I love, thought he still had the love of Lenny as he did as a kid. Lenny went as far as telling him,”you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth and I am going to make you choke on it”. I’m going to make sure you spend every dime you have on this house. Between Katy Cookie and Lenny the family my husband grew up with and loved, they stuck it up his ass. He was hurt, he never expected it. It put him into a deep depression and had a breakdown. Thank God a grandson was born that helped him. Linda, Mandi,Peter this had nothing to do with your Grandmother, we loved her. She was more of a mother to Joe then his own mother was. We wanted to give her what time she had left happy. She got caught in this because of her son Lenny. He would have no part of her moving with us. He would have no control over her check. As for the insurance policy, we asked our lawyer, we were told we had to give it to him. His name was on it. We knew what he would do with it. We had no choice. In the end he turned out to be the loving son, and my husband got the kick in the ass.
