(12:29) - Lottery Case
Florida man Abraham Shakespeare was struggling to make ends meet in 2009. He was unable to read or write and was working any job that he could get.
One fateful Wednesday that year, Abraham was down to his last $5. He asked a co-worker to purchase $2 worth of lottery tickets for him and he gave the rest of his money to a homeless person.
From those tickets, Abraham won a $30m jackpot and his downfall began. People constantly begged him for money and took advantage of him.
Dee Dee Moore contacted Abraham after his win and offered to write a book about his life. Instead, she took his newly purchased assets and ended up murdering Abraham and burying his body in the backyard of a property that she owned.
