FL - Abraham Shakespeare, 42, lottery winner, Polk County, 7 April 2009 #7

[blue mermaid]

Ok, back to Abraham.

His brother talked to him on April 3. And so far, we've had no other report of anyone seeing him Saturday or Sunday, the 4th and 5th. His cell phone usage changes drastically on April 6. I wonder if he was hiding from DDM over the weekend.

I also wonder if Haggins was the "bookkeeper" mentioned in the article.

There's a lot of new info here.. Nice find.

March 12,
Shakespeare drew up a will, leaving his assets to their mother, Elizabeth Walker.

April 3, 2009:
The two, says Brown, were hanging out at the Super Choice Food Mart in Lakeland

Brown says his brother gave him $2,000 that April day at the Super Choice. He says he told Shakespeare he would be headed to the Seminole Hard Rock Casino that night. Shakespeare, he says, told him he would meet him there.

"I was playing the slot machines till 4 a.m.," says Brown. "I was supposed to meet him there, but he never showed up."

I LOVE Mrs. Walker:
"she has talked about not being impressed by money"

and love this from Mr. Brown:
Monday morning, he says, he was in court for Moore's arraignment. He says he was told there were others involved in killing his brother and that there will be more arrests.

Others, he said, will be arrested for stealing from his brother.

"I want the rest of them to be locked up," he says. "But (Moore) needs to get the chair for what she did to my brother."

So me, ANewDay, Susan1 & I think Joybell are all locals.....anyone else??

local, I read all of you every day and have followed many cases and I'm simply amazed what you have been able to uncover here. I don't know any of the players in this case but someone I know sent me this pic from several years ago.

Dee Dee is second from the right on the top

Coldpizza, do you know if this pic is the cast of a play?

Might explain some of the dramatics with the press, kwim?

Thanks for sharing!

Yes it's from a local play house in PC. From my understanding it's the only play she was in. Sorry I don't have the year.

Thanks Coldpizza! Good stuff!!

ETA Yeah, these guys are darn good.

For some reason this case gets to me, ya know it makes me wonder, did I run into her at Publix? Seems to me I ran in to her at a clothing store only because her face is now familiar. Who knows, but this case racks my brain and I wish now I had paid more attention.

I had a friend that was with PCE. I don't recognize any of the other actors in the photo, but I'll send it to my friend and ask about it. See if I can get some detail.....

 

[tigergal71]

OK, just sent my friend an email, probably won't hear back from her till tomorrow, but I'll let you all know if she has any information on the play/date etc.
I also asked for any insight into DeeDee's personality, etc.

I'll let you all know what I found out.

Not that it will help the case, but just out of curiosity!! It's amazing how close the lines cross here locally! Friends who are associated with other friends tied to her etc. Weirdness.

 

[A_New_Day]

Coldpizza, I know what you mean. There's an old case on this site where I am pretty sure I met the victim, or maybe I did, back in the late 80's. She was very beautiful and had red hair. a guy I knew had a crush on her. I only heard about her case last year, now it bothers me if the girl I met was her.

Abraham's case bothers me on so many levels.

His kindness was exploited by soooo many
He and his Mom's (plus family) trust were betrayed in such a disgusting way
This woman stole not only every thing he owned, but money for his child's future to boot
THAT SO MANY HAD TO KNOW OR SUSPECT FOR 8 MONTHS?!!!! And said NOTHING?!!! For what? Money?! .:shocked2: :bang:

I could go on and on and on.... Then I'd have to apologize AGAIN.

Hi ACR,

You might have already found it but It's on the second page of comments from the article above.

This is the actual quote....

She lived across the street for years and moved into "million dollar home" in Lakeland....that is after she bought another hummer, corvette (for boyfriend), and top $$ BMW...we all thought she ran a highly lucrative home health care business. God Bless her Son.

Since they refer that she lived across the street "for years" I take it they mean either from her parents, or where she lived with her ex-husband.
This has touched SO MANY lives! Very sad

I thought they might mean the house on Stevenson that she was living in right before she moved over to Redhawk. I hadn't thought about the parents home or Forbes Rd., but you are right. I don't think she lived on Stevenson "for years".

Yeah, I agree. I think the Stevenson house was only temporary, based on the use of the address in the documents we've found. I believe it had been said that was Shar's address when they first got together, wasn't it??

On another note, what do you all think about her pleading not guilty? Do you think she's crazy for not pleading guilty for a lesser sentence? I wonder what a "lesser sentence" would be in a First Degree Murder charge? Probably still a pretty long time. I think she actually thinks she's going to get off for this and not have to serve anymore jail time!!!
I wonder if she will have outbursts in the courtroom during the trial? I wonder if they will have her testify herself?? THAT is definitely one we need to be there for, if so!!
Anyone have any idea how long it will take to go to trial? I know Casey Anthony's is still another YEAR away!!! Is that just when they can get it on the schedule to be tried, or is it due to the processes they have to go through? I hope it ain't no year before we see justice served.
I hope more arrests are gonna go down SOON! On charges that will STICK LIKE GLUE!!!

Okay, I'm done rambling for now LOL

Okay I'm not trying to bust anyone's bubble, but Robert Brown and Abraham do not have the same mother. They don't even have the same father. All of these people that keep saying they are Abraham's brother, stepfather, and stepsisters are really getting on the real family's nerves. And in regards to a will, where is it? Mrs. Walker knows nothing about it. Did he give it to the police or anyone? I really don't think that Abraham would have had Mr. Brown, of all people, write up a will.

 

[A_New_Day]

Thanks Christi. So who is this guy and was there any truth at all in his claims? Did he really see Abraham April 3?

Don't worry about bursting anyone's bubble. I'm just glad you are here to tell the truth.

Nice job, Tribune. Next time verify people before you write a story.

 

[Christi]

He is someone who Abraham's dad helped out when he was younger. They grew up together I guess you could say.

Thanks to blue mermaid, we have the link to the Robert Brown story. Have you read the story, Christi?

One thing I have found really odd since the first time I heard this guys story (actually before this story) was that he said that Abraham had said that day that he thought someone was going to kill him. My problem is this, if someone told me that, I'd be asking them who, what, when, where, and why. Then I'd be escorting them to the police to tell their story. Then if it was my friend, I'd be telling my friend to come and stay with me until the police got to the bottom of it all so they could be safe. But his friend makes a statement like that and he doesn't get the details? I found them very hard to believe.
