Abraham Shakespeare- Murder In 20 Podcast

PODCAST EXCERPT He chose a lump sum payment of 16.9 million, and after taxes he took home just over eleven million dollars. That was a lot of money for someone who'd never had a bank account, driver's licence or a credit card. People were constantly asking him for money, and he couldn't say no. At the meat market where he liked to hangout with friends, a missing poster was taped to the window, with a photo and description of Abraham. He was a big guy at six feet, five inches and 190 pounds. Eddie Dixon pointed to the poster and said "Only thing I know is that's my best friend. Y'all need to go ask that white woman where that man at". The woman he was referring to was Dee Dee Moore.
