`Guardian’ columnist Jim Perrin plays cat’s-cradle with his time-lines

Since we set up this site — to put the record straight — we have taken many detours from our main purpose; which was to give a truthful and detailed account of what we felt had been betrayal of our sister by the author, Jim Perrin. His cynical attempt, after she died, to profit from his false ‘autobiographical’ recollections of her in West (which is larded with lies) was reprehensible.  Lies that we believe are risible or absolute inventions; lies that are bad-to-middling or, at the other end of his literary scale, self-glorifying and, about others, malevolent.

Some of what he wrote, as once he admitted to our sister — should it get into the wrong hands: `A shrink would have a field-day with this’

Certainly, undeniably, if he had not over the years honed his talent for ‘libelling libel-lessly’ there could have been several actions following the publication of that particular book: the book which, we have said elsewhere `is a travesty of the truth’ and in which he made a cats-cradle of his time-lines; this in a flagrant attempt to acquire some credibility for the story of his time with our sister ‘Jacquetta’.  He also allowed himself the sadistic pleasure of traducing others by lying and alleging words and deeds against them specifically to impugn their reputations: in our opinion Jim Perrin is a bully and would not risk saying to their faces what he has written about them.

Author Jim Perrin writes more flim-flam

We undertook the unravelling of some of Jim Perrin’s financial affairs with the primary objective of showing how untruthful he was about them — not only to our sister during her short time with him (and, what he wrote about them after she died) — but also to many other women.

Throughout his book West he has written of her with a marked and peculiarly inventive dishonesty: and he also wrote, at the time of her death, that she was the cause of his poverty. If this were true it would, nonetheless, have been churlish, lacking in gallantry and disrespectful to one he had purported to love: it was not only unkind to write of Jac as he did but it was, of course, entirely untrue. How ignoble must be the mind of a man who wrote in that way.

Jim Perrin is not one of Nature’s Gentlemen and in our opinion he lacks not only integrity but generosity of spirit, and is capable merely of the pretence  of empathy. We have said of him in a previous post that ‘we believe he is a hollow man’ — and possibly one with sociopathic tendencies.

Of Nature Diarist Jim Perrin: Can a leopard change its spots?

Having already dealt with Jim Perrin’s false and unworthy claims that he had no money because ‘he had spent it all on Jacquetta’, we have also shown in the recent sequence of posts how he had planned to take over the tenancy of her house — telling her children within only a day or two of her death that it was his intention to do so: and, in the years before he was involved with Jac, and since May 2005, he has (we know) used various tactics with several young women to relieve them of their funds and property. (Here it is appropriate to mention that there would be no way we could write this if we did not have absolute proof… )

In our view it is shameful that some who know of this aspect of Jim Perrin’s  history (themselves having influence) choose to ignore it; it is almost to condone his behaviour; the behaviour which has hurt so many and caused such heartache: ‘Silence gives consent’.

Thus we feel it is useful (and many have also told us so) that Jim Perrin’s way of conducting himself over the years, and more recently, should be brought to the attention of anyone who may in their turn risk becoming a victim as did our sister. If we have in the process hurt his would-be spotless reputation that is perhaps unfortunate but since writing these posts about her we have been told that it was not the first time that Jim Perrin had attempted — by various means — to use the assets of his partners: in our opinion he has so successfully perfected the technique by which he compartmentalises his relationships that of the young women involved each was, until later, unaware of his machination. ‘What cannot a neat knave with a smooth tale make a woman believe?’ * Continue reading →
