Woman on Trial for Death of Lottery Winner
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...m_hp_ref=crime A woman accused of swindling and killing a Florida lottery winner emotionally lashed out in court after a witness testified she lied about the dead man's disappearance. While police were investigating the disappearance of millionaire Abraham Shakespeare, the suspected killer Dorice "Dee Dee" Moore allegedly offered to bribe Shakespeare's ex-girlfriend if she'd participate in the coverup, the Tampa Bay Times reported. After Shakespeare's ex-girlfriend, Sentorria Butler, testified, ABC News reported that Moore interrupted the Tampa court by yelling from the defense table: "I'm tired of these people lying. This is my life." Moore, 40, has sobbed through the trial for days and has been reprimanded by Judge Emmett Battles for her courtroom behavior. Once again, he temporarily halted proceedings, ordering her to compose herself on Thursday following the latest loss of self-control. Prosecutors allege that Moore befriended Shakespeare after he won $30 million in the lotto. He'd already given away vast sums to people and Moore offered to help manage his finances. But, prosecutors allege, she took control of his mansion and plundered his remaining winnings before killing him and burying him in 2009 in the backyard of a Plant City home. Her defense attorneys claimed that Shakespeare was killed by drug dealers who haven't been caught and suggested that many people were out to cheat him because of his newfound wealth, WPTV reported. On the ninth day of the trial, prosecutors called Butler, the mother of Shakespeare's son. She testified that Moore offered her a car and a house if she agreed to mislead detectives looking for the missing jackpot winner, according to the Tampa Bay Times. Butler also said Moore lied to her by claiming that Shakespeare had run off with another woman and wouldn't be coming back. Moore retaliated by forcing her attorneys to present a video of Butler they didn't intend to show. In the recording, Butler says Shakespeare beat her and that he had AIDS. In the witness box, Butler admitted that those statements were untrue and that she concocted them at the behest of Moore. Other witnesses have testified that Moore sent a forged letter from Shakespeare to his mother, making it appear like he was still alive and had someone else impersonate him on a telephone all, the Ledger reported. |

Re: Woman on Trial for Death of Lottery Winner
I thought she was a man in that picture, too. Drag queens do a much better job, honey! I'm an old school *** hag from way back ;) The last I saw her she had matted terribly colored yellow hair with black roots. And Abraham Shakespeare was such a cool name! |

Re: Woman on Trial for Death of Lottery Winner
My face has been in full view in the second, "Members Photos Only", with Alice Cooper, Dee Snider, and some of the cast of, "Pet Sematary". It's a matter of personal opinion. *** hags are usually attractive women. Our boys help us dress and tell us what looks good honestly! A male hairdresser clutched his chest one day and shouted, "My God! Your skin looks like porcelain!" He had never seen me in drag and I had gone from work that day at a law firm in center city. I guess all heterosexual men are hideous pigs then! Gay men would never be caught dead with horrible feet or a bad haircut. They all dressed well and were great dancers in my day. I realize I shouldn't have acknowledged your comment, but, I don't care for you anyway, so bite me! · |

Re: Woman on Trial for Death of Lottery Winner
Thanks, Meg! I love drag queens, gay men and some straight men A lot of straight men can learn about women from gay men! I'm part of the Straight Alliance, and have no issues with people and their gender, sexuality and/or preferences. I don't get the bi thing, but, Hell, if people are happy, I'm happy for them! mengala has expressed points of view I haven't agreed with and never acknowledged, except maybe once. · |
