MYSTERIOUS DEATH: The Lottery Curse featuring Javier Leiva from PRETEND

In November 2006, Abraham Shakespeare won 30 million dollars in the Florida Lottery. He couldn't read or write and had spent most of his life scraping by on odd jobs in Lakeland, Florida, but overnight he became one of the wealthiest men in town. He gave most of it away within two years, paying off mortgages, covering funeral costs, and helping nearly anyone who asked. Then a woman named Dee Dee Moore showed up, promising to protect what was left. Within months, she had his house, his insurance, and his power of attorney. Not long after that, Abe vanished, and the only person who claimed to know where he went was the woman who had taken everything from him. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy is joined by Javier Leiva, host of PRETEND, to uncover the sting operation that cracked the case and explore why they call it the lottery curse.Head over to our Murder True Crime Stories YouTube channel to WATCH our video episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@MurderTrueCrimeStoriesIf you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Murder True Crime Stories to never miss a case!
