I've had relationships with broads that are 20 years or more younger than me. I don't see a problem with it. Young wimmins just like to laugh and have fun and take care of business and those are the same things I like so it works out good. My old lady now is more than 20 yrs. younger than me and we still like the same things so we got no problems. It's like Cyndi Lauper says: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. And I'm not saying that I don't like older broads either, as long as they still like to have f... [ More ]

Re: public defender. According to the article, he only took home about $4 million in 2017. That amount is easy to blow through in a few years if you're dumb and impulsive, which he clearly is. The real scandal is that he dropped his wife like a hot potato. Maybe the missus/ex-missus has a chunk of that money that he can't touch.

I'd rather not speak ill of the dead and speculate on his pa... [ More ]

Women in their 20s have been screwing 50 year old men who aren't millionaires since about the time there were guys in their 50s for all sorts of reasons, and busybodies with no reason started having opinions about it the next day.

As far as his choice in lawyers, my first thought was that maybe he should have had better lawyers but based on what I've read since then the only thing a lawyer was going to be able to do for him was help avoid the maximum sentence (and tell him that he should have... [ More ]

You sound like the taliban. As Hearsetrax says Who cares? You are, by inference, blaming her for being in a hotel room with an older man. Fortunately, in the United States, this is not relevant. Murder is murder, regardless of any reason for her being in that hotel roon.

He's in his fifties and she was 23.... That makes many people ask the question of why was she in a motel room with a guy who is 30 years older than her? At the time of her murder he was old enough to be her father. Not blaming her just because she was with an older man, but that situation sure makes a lot of people wonder why she was with him in the first place.

I read news reports that said he used a court appointed lawyer (a Public Defender) as his lawyer. If he still has a lot of money, w... [ More ]

Why no...no thuggery there at all..probably deserves an award of some type or a statue in a public square and perhaps a street named after him.

When i log out to study,

was going over my law school studies, and i was thinking, I should log back in to say, the way he can without a shred of DOUBT, lose all of it or most will be by a family member i.e. sibling, grandparents/parents/kids etc, sue him. He will lose. I will follow it, to see if he was ever sued. I hope the family sue, he should not have the luxury in a clean tidy commissary galore prison, room and board, there, living high on the hog, as my grand-father would say. I hope t... [ More ]

Them shysters will eat that money up and leave him twisting in the wind.

That money should go to the victim's family.

This guy is the perfect example of public face vs private face . To the people in the store he was a nice guy . But behind closed doors in private, he was a violent murderer. People usually show you exactly what they want you to see in public. There is and old saying that money does not change you......but it will eventually reveal who you really are.

I'm remembering her. MARIA won the $388 MILLION in think, in NC here, and said she almost broke or she has some left, but not as much as she SHOULD HAVE had smh. I'm remembering her, yep. I sure do.

being an Italian woman, I don't know why some NC Black ladies do, since i see just as many (MORE)

Some 1 just talking about this and I was just smh to it, saying Mr.Michale Todd Hill, you're a middle age man,not even old yet, but older now to realize that some people, are eventually blessed with good fortune in life and when you're being blessed, you're to do better, not worse. How sad. RIP Keonna, and if he really did it he should yes, be in prison for the remainder of his long life.

I am sure he is going to feasibly get out 1 day, IF he has the right dream team of TOP LAWYERS payi... [ More ]

Sounds like he was the type of guy: If I can't have you, no one else will either .

Many murders are crimes of passion. So sad, she had her head on her shoulders and did lots of good.

What is it with NC Black females attracting thugs? Remember that lucky lady who won a ton of money in Powerball years ago? She kept on bailing that loser out, and then her Church (?) wanted their hand in her windfall too.

RIP Sweet Angel.

A North Carolina Lottery winner who won a $10 million prize in 2017 has been sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of murder.

In 2017, Michael Todd Hill, 54, struck it big after winning $10 million from a scratch-off lottery ticket. After having been charged with the murder of 23-year-old Keonna Graham in 2020, he has now been handed a life sentence in prison.

Hill, of Leland, worked in a nuclear plant in 2017 when he hit millions on an Ultimate Millions... [ More ]
