Abraham Shakespeare Abraham Shakespeare (42) won $31 million dollars in the Florida Lottery in 2006. He took a lump sum payout of approximately $17 million. He remained a frugal person as he had before his lottery windfall, but after numerous failed real estate transactions, loans, and friendships Abraham has suddenly gone missing. He was last seen in the Lakeland area in April 2009. Dorice Emma Donegan Moore (AKA Dee Dee Moore) stated in the media that she bought out Abraham's debts to enable him to move away to escape paying child support arrears for a second child that was born after the lottery windfall. Law Enforcement believes there may be more to this story. There's a $10,000 REWARD for information to locate Abraham Shakespeare. If you know where Abraham Shakespeare may be, contact the Polk County Sheriff’s Office at (863) 534-6379 or (863) 534-6200 To remain anonymous and be eligible for the cash reward, call Heartland Crime Stoppers at 800-226-TIPS |

The 43-year-old Lakeland man was reported missing by his cousin, Cedric Edom, on Nov. 9." "Polk County property records show Shakespeare's North Lakeland home, bought in January 2007 for about $1 million, and all his other real estate holdings and mortgages recorded at the courthouse were sold or assigned this year to American Medical Professionals, PEO, LLC, of Plant City, a medical staffing company. State records show that company is owned by a woman named DeeDee Moore. Moore said Shakespeare was living with a girlfriend outside Polk County and that the residence they shared was in the girlfriend's name so he couldn't be found." "Eddie Dixon Jr. said he has known Shakespeare all his life and said his friend liked coming to Super Choice [Food Mart on West Memorial Boulevard] to watch women. But Dixon said he hasn't seen Shakespeare in months and said it's unusual for him to be missing. When she [DeeDee Moore] started showing up at Super Choice, Dixon said, Moore began acting as a collector, trying to get money from people who owed Shakespeare. "She popped out of nowhere," he said. "When this white lady came into the picture, he stopped coming up here. I feel like this woman knows where he is." |

Investigators Digging for Shakespeare's Body [www.theledger.com] By Merissa Green, Published: Wednesday, January 27, 2010 at 3:05 p.m. Last Modified: Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 2:24 p.m., "The house is owned by Shar Krasniqi, according to Hillsborough County Property Appraiser records. Krasniqi was described earlier this month by Judd as Moore's boyfriend." "The former property owner, who didn't want to be identified, said he sold the house, which is in Krasniqi's name, to Moore. According to the Hillsborough County Tax Collector's records, the former property owner is Richard Land Jr. and he sold the house to Moore for $253,503. Land said Moore leased the house next door at 5732 S.R. 60 E. and was planning to operate a paintball business. After he complained about the noise next door, Moore offered to buy his house in March, Land said. Land said he was paid with a check that said Abraham Shakespeare LLC on it." "At the time, the name meant nothing until media coverage of Shakespeare's disappearance, Land said. Sometime between the end of March and the beginning of April, Land said, Moore had the slab behind the house poured. Land said he never had a problem with Moore and the only connection they had was the sale of the two-story house." |
