Envy, Resentment and Threats

The first threat, sent in a pink envelope, carries the legend "While You're in Hospital." The second, sent in a white envelope, is a Sympathy card intended for someone who has lost a loved one. Neither card is signed, but the intention is quite obvious. My wife opened these cards and took them as a direct threat on us both. The sender was quite obviously Chesham aided and abetted by Mason.

Though he attempted to alter his erstwhile very recognisable handwriting on the two envelopes by writing in an infantile manner with large characters (possibly employing his left hand), one would have no need to be a graphologist to see that individual characters in our address written on the envelopes match exactly those Chesham has employed in his correspondence in past years to various people. 

Sample of Kevin Chesham's handwriting on correspondence to Keith Maclean:

Though he obtained my bestselling book about the Highgate Vampire case, I doubt he ever read it. He certainly never discussed it with me or anyone else known to me. That didn't stop him attempting to exploit it for his own ends. The truth is he knew nothing about the investigation until decades after it was over when he obtained a copy of The Highgate Vampire (among other of my books) in the 1990s. He could not have read it because he took umbrage at Keith Maclean participating in a documentary about the case made by the Discovery Channel (which is also available on DVD) and couldn't understand why I involved Keith Maclean who, of course, received a fee. There was clearly more than an element of jealousy in Chesham's reaction, which some believe was the trigger that led to him coming out of the closet and revealing his true colours at a later date. The fact is that Keith Maclean was instrumental in my investigation into the Highgate happenings at their inception; something Kevin Chesham would have known if he had actually bothered to read my book; something I doubt he did.

When it was discovered that Kevin Chesham was engaged in treachery, and had been acting as a mole for those of ill-intent, I was obliged to create a rebuttal blog owing to the malice and incitements.

Kevin Chesham, like others before him, wants his fifteen minutes of infamy. In order to achieve this he decided to become yet another non-entity trying to hop on the Highgate Vampire bandwagon.

Apart from myself and Keith Maclean, whom he met at luncheons my wife and I hosted, Chesham and Mason have not had contact with anyone genuinely connected with the investigation of the case, and, as can be confirmed by those present on each and every occasion, the case itself was never raised or discussed in their presence. Had it been, he would have been aware of Keith Maclean's part in it and understood why he was involved in the making of a film documentary. But he didn't, and Kevin Chesham's own pettiness, anger and envy got the better of him in the end.
