The paternal grandmother of the minor child involved in the Willie Mabry molestation accusation issue speaks out in the following 3 part Letter-To-The-Editor.  According to her emailed letters, Ms. Evelyn Falco says she’s been denied access to her grandchildren (the child involved and her brother), makes allegations against Felicia Mabry and believes Willie Mabry to be innocent of the charges against him.  Ms. Falco also makes a plea for help and prayer.

To date, the allegations of child molestation against Rev. Willie Mabry, pastor of the Zion Traveler’s Baptist Church in Monroe, LA are still under investigation by the Ouachita Parish District Attorney’s Office in Monroe, LA.   Mabry is the former City Accountant of Grambling and was convicted of rape in Baltimore, MD back in 1980.

Part 1

Greetings Chief Editor,
I am writing this because I am the paternal grandmother of the child in the rape allegation against Rev. Willie Mabry.  I believe that instead of focusing on the rift between Rev. Mabry and Felicia, let us be concerned with the welfare of the child in question. This child is caught in the middle of this issue involving molestation which at this point remains to be determined as true or false.

Regardless of the validation of this claim, this child still needs love and understanding, she does not need to be badgered about the details about the allegations by anyone.  I feel that Felicia is to be blamed for what has happened to this child. She has fought me since the death of her sister (the child’s birth mother and my daughter in-law) in September of 2006.

The child’s father (my son) is currently incarcerated and has been since before his wife died. Before the mother’s death Felicia knew my grandchildren (the child in question and her younger brother) exactly 14 days before taking the kids away from an environment they were accustomed to.

My granddaughter had lived with me her entire life, I nurtured her from a 2lb 3 oz premature newborn. We had a stipulated court order
here in Florida for visitation and phone communications between paternal relatives and the children.  In five years we have seen the children once. The Mabrys have always been in non-compliance with the court orders, fighting us from Louisiana with long-armed laws each time a visitation was scheduled.

The Mabrys have been dishonest with the rearing of my grandchildren, keeping them away from loved ones, including an older sibling who is 19 and lives in the state of Louisiana. The same kind of cohesion (coercion?) supposedly used in the rape allegation was also used in a tape recorded by my granddaughter stating that she never lived with me even though we all the evidence in the world to refute the claim, the child was forced to say these things under due stress.

The Mabrys are not the childrens’ legal parents, there has never been an adoption of the children. Their father even (though) incarcerated still has parental rights. No court has ever taken these rights away. Both the children are getting their mother’s social security which has now since included the older siblings since last year when she reached 18.  They are also receiving medicaid. The childrens’ Mothers name was Leslie Darensbourg who died at age 33 from breast cancer. The  older sibling is Kimberly Darensbourg aged 19. Father is named Karl Stephens.

I am grandmother Evelyn Stephens Falco. This is not a letter to determine guilt or innocence against the pastor regarding the allegations, or to discredit Felicia.

This letter I am asking you to print in your own words so someone or maybe even you as a pastor would consider the child in question. She needs help, she has been living a lie for 5 years. I truly believe this is Gods way of bringing the truth to light. I have been fighting and fighting and allowing God to have his way.

So I am asking for the help of you or anyone else to restore the relationship between me and my granddaughter, for i truly believe in my heart if i speak with her i would be able to get to the bottom of the issue at hand. I do hope you feel free to reply to my email and help some way with the truth.

Thanking you with God’s Blessings
Evelyn Falco

Part 2

I am writing to give you permission to print the email that I sent to you, you have my consent to print it as I have written it to you word for word because all of it is the truth, that can be proven.  Editor you have my word that any persons that read your article can ask me to provide evidence to confirm only the truth .

Rev. Dill  I am asking that any member from Rev. Mabry’s church whom has met my grandchildren please step forward with some help to give to the court, to help us maintain our relationship with (my grandchildren).  My son would need indigent services for as he and I have stated he is incarcerated and has been for seven years.

I am not in any way now able to pay for legal council, been there before, spent money in two states with only fighting with the Mabry’s just to see if being there could help families to keep the children in a healthy relationship with both sides maternal and paternal families.

On Sept. 27, 2006 I had sent my two grandchildren to school as usual only to find out that afternoon the bus attendant said that the children had been taken away by an exparte court order with police escorts.  Both children’s teachers were crying when I got there because the court the Mabry’s lawyer or any one else tried to contact me at work.

After taking them to Baton Rouge we then agreed on telephone calls to the father and other family members the Mabry’s have yet to date set up telephone calls for children to speak to him. They have been in non compliance of any court order from the state of Florida or La. State of Fl. in Feb. 2007 no compliance Baton Rouge in Nov. 2007 and last one in Monroe in may 2008 Hon. Alvin R. Sharp.  Judge James E. Ross, Attorney for plaintiffs-In Rule Article 134 of the civil code #2008-001001667.

Maybe someone will find out the truth of what the lawyer won his case with and print it on your news so I can know where our family is with our children as a Christian still trying to make it in God’s kingdom  I do know it is a lesson and a message in all of this to all of us because the God I serve is awesome and does take care of his children. God will bring the truth to light and all of the demons who allowed or just watch the Mabry’s attack each other at the price of my granddaughter. I will pray for us all.

Editor I need for everyone to know the spirit of my God through him tells me that Pastor Mabry is not guilty of this allegation but he is guilty of going along with dishonest behavior and being a part of keeping children from their loving  family who has been hurting for 5 years of not seeing or hearing from. Willie Mabry I am sure gets to be a part of his children and their families. Why (does) my granddaughter (have) to be placed in this lie, she is going to be scared from this mess.

Please pray for my grands, their father, and the rest of our family and I hope that Pastor Mabry has repent I don’t think that Felicia thinks about anything being wrong. I know their family history and I am prepared to break their family curse.  Their older sister’s daughter will not be a part of this curse.

About 15 years ago I was accused of a misdemeanor that I thought was over with. I was released without bail or a stay in jail.  Felicia found out on people’s search and told everyone I had a criminal record longer than my son’s record. I had no problem with my home study that maybe the children would have been back in my care, and this would not have happened.  This is not to determine guilt or innocence but just to show you that God is still in charge and he will make things right .

This last 5years have been not so easy. Editor please write anything that you feel you would like to give the readers and God’s people.

Peace and all of God’s love Evelyn Falco

Part 3

Rev. David Dill Editor of The Fount Online News, I Evelyn Falco give you the editor permission to print both emails that I sent to you.  Please combine both together in a letter form. Print all that you feel needs to be written in my exact words, quoting me  as it is written.

Everything I have written can be proven with court papers, stipulated court orders, affidavits from coworkers, my church family, old friends, my Pastor, sister of both of the children Most of all a letter of my home study, fingerprint scan done through children and family and verified through the F.B.I of Washington D.C.

REV Dill you can check my credibility as a Christian. Make it known in your letter that anyone that needs to find out the truth feel free to ask and I will try to get the truth out without judgment or accusations, no ugly scandalizing.  I hope that whomever needs to see another side might be able to come to some truth and end this nightmare for my granddaughter and maybe she could start to heal.  April 1 she will be 11 years old.

I remember like yesterday my 2lb 3oz. baby girl was so little but she was a fighter, 3 weeks later it was Easter and I got her the most beautiful outfit for her from  target department store.  She was so pretty with her hat on tubes everywhere, but God kept her fighting.

Oh by the way she was wearing Barbie doll clothes.  I still have a number of photos for memories. She looked like a little cute mouse. From that day her name to me was mommy. As she grew (I) called her my “American Express”, don’t leave home without me.  All I am asking and requesting that you keep [mommy] paternal and maternal family in prayer.

And if Tina her aunt gets to read this, please help your niece to have a better life, she deserve a chance, you know the truth and the whole truth. Please help with the truth being dealt with,  we could help this child.

This is also for Rev Mabry, Felicia Mabry or any else that feels they need to protect.  Mr.and Mrs. Mabry they can protect each other, my granddaughter needs protection.

Let us all give God the Glory He is still (due) in the midst of this ordeal. He has Confirmed it with me.

Peace To ALL  YOURS EVELYN FALCO GRANNIE
