    The amazing thing is, while being investigated, Dee Dee first asks her elderly father to take the blame, trying to persuade him saying he has so little time left to live anyways. When that doesn't work and he refuses, she actually blames her 14 year old son! Her defence basically was that she was attacked by Abraham, with her son present in the room, the boy killed him in his mothers defence, and she gallantly took the blame to spare her child as the investigators were closing in on him. What a piece of crap.

      Yep, she even claimed he was a deadbeat dad who'd fled the country to avoid child support payments. In truth Abraham loved his only child Moses, was always fully involved in his life and had put $1 million aside for him to have when he came of age. Money which was no doubt stolen from that little boy by his father's killer Dee Dee!
      She is rotten to the core. I saw a documentary on the case, and will never forget how she killed the totally unsuspecting Abraham, then dragged his lifeless body to that squalid grave and pushed him in, like he was a piece of garbage. And all for money!
      If there's one thing I cannot abide it's people who disrespect kind people like Abraham, and interpret their kindness as weakness. Evil Dee Dee is where she belongs - and thank God she's locked away from her innocent 14 year old son, who she actually tried to blame for Abraham's murder. There are no depths she won't sink to, to save her own neck - as we saw when that ugly policeman told the court she'd tried to seduce him, lol!!

      All her circular self-contradicting arguments, while being interrogated, is classic Cluster B stuff tbh. Borderlines tend to feature quite a bit in Mike’s content but they rarely if ever tend to do their own killing. More likely to manipulate someone else to. That retreat into childishness is the closest thing to who they are inside plus all those grim faces she pulls at trial. That’s the secondary psychopath struggling not to get out. The exasperation of the officers is incredible to watch. They are dealing with a person for whom “truth” is totally emotionally dependent. What they _feel_ it should be, irrespective of fact or logic, at any given moment, is what it actually IS to them, with a certainty of every fibre of their being.
      Even if she’d pumped six bullets into the guy, with total sobriety and determination, if it constituted emotional trauma to admit the fact, she will and does say she did not, and will believe that “fact,” in that moment, with the same utter certainty you have that the sun will rise in the East tomorrow morning.

      @@KyrieChii You're not wrong about Abraham, everyone who knew him said he was a gentle soul who lived for his little boy Moses. One of the first things he did with his winnings was to set aside $1 million in an investment account for Moses when he came of age. No doubt Dee Dee Moore stole that too. That's another tragic aspect of this horror story - his son will never have his dad in his life, and must forever carry the grief and horror of his cruel murder.
      That woman shot a decent man dead, threw his lifeless body into an unmarked grave, then got her ex to use a digger to (unwittingly) throw dirt and finally concrete over him. I remember seeing a documentary on the case. When Abraham's body was found, that witch had laid a heavy concrete slab over it, so no one would see it when the hole was filled in. She's pure evil.
      I wonder if Abraham was given the option to have no publicity, as lottery winners can in the UK? That would have reduced the number of scroungers he was plagued by, but sadly he would still have met his killer Dee Dee, as she was the realtor who sold him his house. Extraordinary that one man could experience such freakishly good luck (the lottery win), followed by equally unlikely bad luck (meeting a murderer), all within the space of one year. I pray his son Moses has a much happier life.

      @@amp394 Absolutely it does - and forgive me for saying this, but the phrase is actually "The love of money is the root of all evil".
      It's a small difference but I think an important one, as money itself has as much power to serve good ends, as evil ones - and Abraham and his loved ones should have had a far better life for that lotto win.
      The cause of the tragedy was not the money itself, but shady people's love of it which immediately got him preyed upon, exploited and finally killed. He wasn't destroyed by his millions but by the sub-humans who looked at him and saw not a human being, but a cash machine.
      I believe there's a natural justice, and that every one of them who ruthlessly used him for financial gain has a big ugly dose of karma coming their way.

      It's especially shocking the money evaporated so fast, when Abraham was not extravagant or self indulgent with his lottery millions. All he did for himself was buy a house and a second hand Rolex watch, and put $1 million in an investment account for his son Moses to have when he came of age.
      Most of Abraham's money was actually stolen from him, by fast friends with hard luck stories, and of course the psychopath who murdered him. That poor man had two extraordinary, massively-against-the-odds events happen to him within a short period - his incredible, multi million dollar won, and his assassination.
      I don't know how the statistics fall, but the odds against either one of those things happening to someone are huge. The odds against both the lottery win and the murder happening to one person must be way higher. Though of course the two events were closely related.
      I think poor Abraham was vulnerable to a great extent due to his incomplete education (he left school at 12 and was barely literate). It made him unworldly with low self esteem, all too easily manipulated by the ruthless con woman who promised to manage his cash - and whose boastful lies he was too unsophisticated to see through. I hope his little boy Moses will get the great education that sadly he did not, and enjoy a far happier life. Among many life lessons, this terrible case reminds us that an education really is a priceless gift.
      No doubt Dee Dee Moore also stole Abraham's only child's nest egg from him - while telling police he was a deadbeat dad, who'd fled the country to avoid child support payments! The woman is so despicable, she tried to blame her own, innocent 14-year-old son for Abraham's murder. There's a special place in Hell reserved for sub human scum like her, who prey on the most vulnerable.

Keep it to yourself and close loved ones and don’t draw a bunch of attention to yourself …. because when lump sums of cash are involved, some folks out there are like bloodhounds.

I think he paid off one mortgage for someone, but he already owned a home that was mortgage free, and he saw no reason to get another house just because he could. My brother told me and as far as I know I am the only one he ever told. I have never told anyone. Sadly, the friend recently died of Covid, so I imagine his children probably know about it now because they probably inherited a heck of a lot more money than they anticipated getting. Hearing what happened to poor Abraham when the greedy, conniving DeeDee got him in her sites, it seems like maybe my brother's friend was extremely wise not to let anyone know he had won a lot of money.

Not Mike.. he is a good guy....luv ya Mike 😘😘..theres no one like you on youtube especially in the true crime world.

    This story absolutely breaks my heart EVERYTIME I hear it. Abraham was a wonderfully giving man. He deserved so much more than what he got. It makes me sick. Dee dee deserves to suffer every single day and to have the most miserable life ever. Sad .

    16:56 I love this Sheriff! If you watch his other press conferences they’re usually pretty great. He definitely seems to genuinely love his community and he has little patience for the scumbags that might serve to disrupt the peace in his jurisdiction.

    Wow, my heart just breaks for this guy. I've got to say that in my experience the people who are most generous are those who have had the least in life so I'm not at all surprised that he was giving his money away so easily, even to these people who he probably hardly knew at all (or maybe didn't know!) Lots of them probably were hard up for cash, but that doesn't excuse using someone purely for it. It's amazing how these people really did pave the way for this horrible woman to just worm her way into his life under the guise of protecting him from all this. :(

    If you ever watch want to watch an interrogation, watch hers. It's SO FUNNY, also annoying and ridiculous, but the detectives were hilarious and it is refreshing to hear them say exactly what you're thinking. I believe Blue Dot crime and interrogations has it in 3 parts here on UA-cam.

      Sadly she probably spent it on legal fees or had already blown through it. I'm sure once she knew the police were looking at her she moved anything left. I'd be very surprised if any money was recoverable however, like you I really hope that something went his way. The levels of evilness that humans can perpetrate, without any regard for others is truly frightening.

    And one of the best things about this video is when the police are interrogating her and just steadily going on on her and calling her a liar and everything else. I love the fact they went so hard on her and kept calling her a liar and basically making her realize the jig is up. Man, I love some savage detectives tbh.

    I've seen a few documentaries about this tragic case. Almost every one of them had his barber in them, too. Mr. Shakespeare had leant him thousands of dollars. He really struck me as "a friend" only because Mr. Shakespeare was helping support his failing business. Poor guy probably would've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars just to find a real friend.
