LOTTERY WINNER USES $9 MILLION TO BAIL BOYFRIEND OUT OF JAIL
Back in February, Marie Holmes, a 26-year-old, single mother of four, won the Powerball lottery. Holmes, of North Carolina, accepted her $188 million winnings in one lump sum, meaning she was awarded $127 million. After taxes, she received $88 million. What has she done with the money? Bailed her fiance out of jail. Shortly after she won the money, Holmes posted $3 million bond for her boyfriend Lamarr McDow. McDow was in jail, facing heroin trafficking charges. McDow was implicated after an investigation unearthed more than 8,000 bags of heroin. Then last month, police again arrested McDow who had violated conditions of his parole by missing curfew, carrying a .45 caliber pistol and finding more heroin and paraphernalia in his home. Holmes then spent an additional $6 million to get McDow out of prison. He was released with a GPS monitoring device. After the story got out, Holmes took to Facebook to respond to criticism. She writes, “What Y’all need to be worried about is Y’all money and not how I spend mine this is benefitting Y’all how? And no he’s no drug dealer or user but who are Y’all to judge anybody? I will definitely pray for Y’all because it’s much need … they talked about Jesus so I’m not surprised Y’all are talking about me but be blessed though.”
* Definitely the most irritating lottery winning story ever.
* Who’s this “Y’all” person she’s so mad at?
* Maybe it’s just me, but if my fiance just won took home $88 million, I’d probably stop selling heroin on the side.
* I guess Lamarr just likes to have his own mad money.
* He’s not a drug dealer? So the 8,000 packets of heroin were his stash?
* Maybe he’s just super-organized and he wants his doses laid out for the next few years.
* “They talked about Jesus so I’m not surprised Y’all are talking about me.” Sure, that’s why we’re talking about you – because you remind us of Jesus.
* Excuse me, but gossip wasn’t exactly Jesus’s biggest problem.
* Just don’t come whining to us in a few years when you’re flat-ass broke again.
