Here is the transcript from Abraham Shakespeare's Mom.

Mother of Abraham Shakespeare Speaks

Elisabeth Walker: During this very difficult time, the pastfew months have been filled with uncertainty and worry over the fate of wheremy son Abraham. We had certainly hoped for a different outcome. They didn tcare anything for him. All they wanted was his money. He was hounded everydayabout money. He couldn t even his phone just constantly ringing. His life wasmiserable. I think that it was others... [ More ]

I hope she ends up another woman's b**** when she goes to prison.

I simply hope that before Shakespeare died that he became a good man and a happy man. I hope that he was able to remove himself from those pursuits (burglery and assult) that he used to perform which is why he spent some time in jail for retribution.

It may have been sad for Shakespeare's mother to observe/know of Shakespeare continuing friendships with the folks that he had performed those bad pursuits with prior (or met while he was in jail), if he had encouraged those friendships.

I don... [ More ]

Never pass up an opportunity to hug your kids and tell them you love them even when they're adults. You never know when it will be the last time you'll be able to do that and neglecting to do so on that one occasion can haunt you for a long time.

An awful thing in deed! My heart aches for her! I have so many questions in my head regarding this case; not to assign blame however; where was is closest relatives? Why did they not remain a little closer to him to help him fend off the bloodsuckers, that we all know inevitable shows up!!

I literally felt ill and nauseated by these.. these...pathetic SubHumans, who would take life in exchange for money????!!!!!! Leaving a mother bewildered and destroyed at the lost of her son! Why?? My GOD

I've always thought that, myself...but now, like in my signature, I no longer believe it's the *money* itself, but what's in the heart of who aquires it (or wants to aquire it), and only amplifies who we already are. I've never been one to point the finger at tv shows or music, to be an excuse for why people commit heinous crimes, either. There is no excuse for something like happened to this man. A gun doesn't shoot people, PEOPLE shoot people.

There are actually a few people with money, th... [ More ]

wow wow and wow,

I suspected foul play in the begining. Dee Dee moore im sure was partially responsible if not responsible for shakespears death. It seems to me that she already had money if she owned her own biz. Maybe it was going down. One thing that i know for sure is that it all boils down to greed. she was a greedy B@##$$. You know greed never gets anyone anywhere. But look at where it got her. I am outraged, that people would not let this man live his life. she is lower than low and he... [ More ]

From Story:

I would like to say, 'Why?' Because if she needed money, Abraham would have given it to her, she said.

Why? Because, if Moore is guilty, IMO she wanted everything! That's why, nothing complicated here.

I just wonder what's taking them so long to file that charge

The prosecutor has the option of waiting quite a long time before increasing the charges. My guess is they're still interviewing witnesses, putting pressure on suspects, gathering evidence, etc... Don't forget... [ More ]

My prayers and sympathy go out to the mother and his family. The love of money is the root of all evil. Hope Police get info from DeeDee of all other connected and they all get the death penalty. She may do a plea bargain in exchange for telling others involved and get life in prison. The prisoners will take care of her.

I agree and there was no reason for this, this man was giving money away FREELY to this woman, she was just too greedy. My condolences to his mother and his family, may he rest in peace.

GREED, one of 7 deadly sins. Large sum of money changes people. Ms Moore proably

had some of her SHADEY friends plot to get rid of Shakespeare, and thought they would

get away with it. Lets c if MS Moore has anything else to say

I hope she gets charged with first degree murder. When she does, she will sing more than a fat lady (no pun intended).

I also doubt that any of his friends will be at the funeral. They will probably feel too much shame, as they are the ones who drove him to Dee Dee with their own greed. I just hope that before he met Dee Dee, that he had enough sense to make funeral arrangements for himself, and left enough money to take care of his children.

There is no way she won't be charged with first degree murder

According to the Sheriff of Polk County, she has already incriminated herself

By talking about Shakespeare being shot - information that was not released to the public

I just wonder what's taking them so long to file that charge

This is so sad for Shakespeare's mother - I wonder if some of the people who were

so quick to take his money will now turn around and help his family pay for his funeral

yea, right... [ More ]

Jazi76 — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 13:53:02 GMT

And with all of the incriminating evidence, Dee Dee is only being charged as an accessory to murder.

I think we might need an Abraham Shakespeare thread, until the killer(s) has been convicted.

What an awful thing for a mother to bear.

Mom of murdered lottery winner speaks

Lottery Post — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 13:26:08 GMT

Includes video report

The mother of a murdered Florida Lottery winner is talking about her son's death. Investigators found the body of Abraham Shakespeare last week buried near a home in Plant City.

Shakespeare won a $30 million lottery jackpot in 2006, then disappeared last April.

On Tuesday, police charged 37-year-old Dee Dee Moore as an accessory to murder in the case. Shakespeare's mother, Elizabeth Walker, doesn't understand why Moore would harm her son.
