Jim Perrin admitted to violence towards a former wife: (plus extra details of his use of aliases…)

Jim Perrin’s dishonest account of his history with our sister included the breath-taking duplicity of his claim that she had been his ‘lover, wife and friend of forty years.’ As an example of this author’s shameless use of implication, this is a tour de force…

His subsequent posturing on the The Guardian, post-publication of his book West, and the removal of several of our comments (we presumed at his instigation) finally led us to realize that the only way forward was to create our own site; one which was as informative as possible — and one in which the truth was told.

It was Jim Perrin, we absolutely believe, yclept ‘Melangell’, who posted on The Guardian thread further lies about Jac as well as offensive comments about her sisters and her family — it was a blatant attempt to discredit us and so obvious. These were in response to our stated disquiet and efforts to check him.  His comments are still there — indeed he regularly offers up an opinion under this alias.  To read them, and perhaps to understand why we have no doubt at all that it is Jim Perrin with whom we are dealing, they can be found on the thread following Sir Andrew Motion’s review of West — those concerning Jac’s sisters date from July, 2010.

‘Snowdon’ author Jim Perrin is a disconcerted man

It has been said (by someone who is a friend Jim Perrin and knows him well) that we are with our posts ‘getting under his skin’ — and that ‘he is a disconcerted man’.

Asked whether we should not be concerned that by writing them we might be drawing more attention to his earlier book West, we have thought of it and given it careful consideration: however, we realise that anyone who reads the book we so deplore, and the first chapter in The Climbing Essays (the first book in which he wrote his lies about ‘Jacquetta’) is likely to become aware of jacssisters.org. We have been told this by many who have actually found our site after reading his books…

Therefore more people will be able to read for themselves the story of our sister’s short relationship with Jim Perrin — the man she grew to fear, and of the extra issues that with the help of others have come to light and which we have raised since our first postings. Those who might research him, and who discover jacssisters — both now or in the future — will learn far more about him than ever he would wish or could imagine.

Jim Perrin deserted Jacquetta

Finally: (as this is the last posting in a sequence of four). Did Jim Perrin leave our sister at such a crucial time because, possibly, the nurses had told him that ‘she was a little brighter’; ‘she was a little better’ — (which is what he relayed to her sisters that evening) and he felt it was acceptable to do so. It might have been, for instance, that after all he did have pressing business reasons to leave her?

Perhaps after consideration he thought it would be safe to go, so his absence — and his exceptionally late arrival next day, on Wednesday — could well be explained if, as we now suppose, he was some distance away.

To reiterate what we have written in earlier posts: Jim Perrin was the first person Jac’s ‘Welsh’ sister had tried to telephone after she arrived at the hospital at 7 am. that Wednesday and discovered how gravely ill Jac had become.

She had been offered the use of the staff office whilst telephoning and had continued, unsuccessfully, to try to reach him in between her calls to others which it was also necessary to make (and she was desperately trying to find Jac’s daughter): until, no longer wishing to be away from Jac’s side — the nurses had explained that she would not be rousing from the coma into which she had fallen and might die at any time — she accepted  Jac’s ‘first love’s’ offer, he was in Ulverston in Cumbria, to continue her efforts to contact Jim Perrin. He also said that he would try to locate one of Jac’s sons and his girlfriend who were in South America. (This, amazingly, he managed to do… ) Continue reading →
