Former Aruba Murder Suspect Gary Giordano Hijacking Dead Step-Mom’s Belongings-’He’s A Monster,’ Says Family

Posted on Feb 4, 2013 @ 4:04AM | By Debbie Emery

Currently a free man after once being the prime suspect in the murder of missing Maryland woman Robyn Gardner, Gary Giordano is now allegedly emotionally tormenting the family of his late step-mother, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

“Gary has no conscience. All we want is what belongs to my mother, but he’s acting like a monster,” Paula Rockwell, whose mother was married to Giordano’s father before they both died last year, told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, authorities arrested 51-year-old Giordano, of Gaithersburg, Maryland, as he tried to leave Aruba after he reported Gardner had disappeared while snorkeling August 2, 2011. Despite a series of searches, neither Gardner’s body nor any related physical evidence was recovered, spurring a judge in December 2011 to order Giordano freed.

The current tangled family drama revolves around Diana Sandahl, 66, and Frank Giordano, 80, who after being a couple for 13 years finally married in July 2012 because Gary’s dad was severely ill with cancer. He died in October and his longtime partner followed him to the grave shortly afterward, leaving a legal mess that brought Paula and the former murder suspect far closer than she would like.

“It is a mess,” the Georgia-native told RadarOnline.com. “Gary is somehow the personal representative for his father’s will and he won’t give us our mother’s things – we’re talking furniture, clothing, pictures… He’s fighting me tooth and nail over a car that belonged to my grandparents that is titled to my mom and Frank.

“I have tried 10 attorneys and nobody wants to help me when I tell them who I’m up against,” she said, referring to Giordano’s reputation of being quick to sue people who cross him.

“It is stated in the will that my mother paid for the furniture and that everything in the garage is hers. She died penniless but we want the memories.”

Instead of respecting those keepsakes, Giordano allegedly dumped them all out in his driveway in the pouring rain when Paula’s brother, Bill Egbert, recently went over to pick them up.

The aggressive attitude is typical of what Diana endured from her step-son when she was alive, claims Paula.

“She knew he was guilty (of killing Robyn) but she still went on the TODAY show supporting Frank and we didn’t talk for awhile. She was scared to death of Gary. He would call her in the middle of the night yelling and screaming at her,” Rockwell exclusively told RadarOnline.com.

“I told her she was putting herself in a bad position when she did the interview,” said Rockwell, who sent her mom an angry email telling her: “‘You are a damn fool…thanks for embarrassing all of us.’”

Now neither Frank nor Diana can find peace even in death, as Gary hasn’t even bothered to make funeral arrangements three months later.

“He won’t even talk to us about how he’s going to bury his father and he hasn’t picked up the ashes,” said Rockwell.

“We can’t bury our mother without knowing that because it was their wish to be together in Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Illinois.”

Former Aruba Murder Suspect Gary Giordano Loses Fight To Have AMEX Lawsuit Against Him Dismissed
Posted on Mar 1, 2013 @ 11:26AM

The former prime suspect in the case of missing Maryland woman Robyn Gardner escaped murder charges in connection with her disappearance, but he will not be able avoid to heading back to court to face a related lawsuit from American Express, and RadarOnline.com has exclusive details on the ongoing Aruban drama.
 
Gary Giordano, of Gaithersburg, Maryland, is being sued by AMEX over a travel insurance policy he took out in Gardner’s name before their vacation to the Caribbean island, which the company claims isn’t enforceable because the two aren’t married, business partners or related otherwise, reported WashingtonCBSLocal.com.

The 51-year-old business man had sought the dismissal on multiple grounds, including whether the challenge should be filed in federal court, but it was announced on Friday that a federal judge rejected his plea.
 ::snipping2::
While Giordano will be bitter about the decision, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal that Gardner’s boyfriend, Richard Forester, thinks that justice is finally being served.
 
“I hope he gets what he deserves, and I hope Amex and the judicial system make an example of him by punishing him to the full extent of the law,” Forester told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview, as he revealed that he has still believes that Gardner will be found alive.

Family remembers Gardner two years after disappearance

Posted: Friday, August 2, 2013 2:00 am
By Danielle E. Gaines News-Post Staff | 6 comments

The family of Robyn Gardner continues to hope for her return two years after the Frederick woman vanished off the shore of Aruba.

“She's still, of course, on our minds and in our hearts,” said Danielle Colson-Unglesbee, Gardner's sister. “We haven't given up hope.”

Gardner was reported missing to Aruban authorities on Aug. 2, 2011, when her traveling companion, Gary Giordano, of Gaithersburg, said she didn't return to shore after a snorkeling outing at Baby Beach near the southern tip of the island. He was released after spending nearly four months in jail.

Aruban authorities conducted several searches in the days after Gardner disappeared, but the family hasn't heard much from them lately, Colson-Unglesbee said.

“I think it's become a cold case, unfortunately,” she said.

Calls to Aruban authorities were not returned Thursday. Special Agent Rich Wolf at the FBI's Baltimore field office said the agency continues to post Gardner's missing persons poster on its website, but is involved only to provide assistance to Aruban police when asked.

Colson-Unglesbee said her family has not been able to comment at length about the circumstances of Gardner's disappearance because of various legal issues, which might be coming to an end soon.

Lawsuits between Giordano by an American Express subsidiary through which he bought a travel insurance policy in Gardner's name have been settled, the family said Thursday.

 

Giordano filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Ill., seeking a $3.5 million payment from the company. In September 2012, AmEx Assurance Co. filed a lawsuit in federal court to keep him from being able to collect the money.

Colson-Unglesbee said the company will drop its lawsuit against Giordano and he will not be paid as part of the settlement.

“He's not getting a penny. We're very happy about that,” she said.

Giordano's attorney, Anthony Conti, declined to comment Thursday. An attorney for AmEx Assurance could not be reached.

Gardner's sister said she will spend today remembering her sister and will light a candle in her honor at St. Bartholemew's Catholic Church in Manchester. Gardner's mother will do the same at her church in Florida, Colson-Unglesbee said.

“Robyn is a great person. We miss her, we love her and we want her to hopefully come home,” she said.

WTOP Exclusive: On anniversary, Aruba maintains Gaithersburg man murdered Robyn Gardner
 Friday - 8/2/2013, 8:37pm  ET

By Neal Augenstein
 
WASHINGTON - On the two-year anniversary of the disappearance of Robyn Gardner, of Frederick, Md., prosecutors in Aruba tell WTOP they still believe Gary Giordano of Gaithersburg, Md., kidnapped and murdered his traveling partner.

"The case is still open, and we accuse him of murder, kidnapping, and fraud," says Ann Angela, a spokesperson for the Aruban prosecutor's office.

 

Giordano was never charged, and Gardner's body was never recovered.

Giordano's attorney Steven Kupferberg, tells WTOP, "Gary authorized me to say he has no comment" about prosecutors' allegations or the anniversary of Gardner's disappearance.

In the days after Gardner's disappearance, Giordano contacted American Express, seeking payment of the travel insurance policy he'd taken out for Gardner. The two met on a dating website.

Giordano filed suit against American Express in Illinois, and the insurance company countersued Giordano in Maryland.

Federal court records show the Maryland case is nearing settlement.

Danielle Colson-Unglesbee, Gardner's sister, says Gardner's family "is still hoping for her return."

"We certainly love her very much. I'm going to church to light a candle in her honor, and my mom will do the same in Florida," says Colson-Unglesbee.

Colson-Unglesbee says lawyers for American Express told her they were drawing up final settlement papers, which do not include any payout to Giordano.

"We're very happy about that," says Colson-Unglesbee.

Good.  Giordano isn't getting a penny from Amex.  As it should be.  JMHO
