Abraham Shakespeare missing
Abraham was a truck driver’s assistant who hit the $30 million jackpot in the Florida lottery in 2006. He spend modestly, and only purchased a Nissan Altima, a $1 million home in a gated community, and a used Rolex from a pawn shop. He often lent money to friends and strangers, but ultimately he just wanted to be happy. Shakespeare would tell people he was on a budget, and wanted to help the poor. Sadly, Shakespeare hasn’t been seen since April 2009. His mother told investigators she spoke to him last in February 2009, but he wasn’t reported missing until November 2009. I spoke with Investigator Wood from the Polk County Sheriff’s office, and she confirms they have named Dorice Donegan “DeeDee” Moore of Florida a person of interest in this case. According to a press release, “Detectives say Moore began using Shakespeare’s cell phone in April 2009 to text Shakespeare’s relatives and friends in an effort to have them believe it was Shakespeare attempting to contact them… in addition, Moore is believed to have offered to give away a home work approximately $200,000 in exchange for making a false report to law enforcement regarding an alleged recent sighting of Shakespeare.”
