Dorice "Dee Dee" Moore has been arrested in the case of missing Florida lottery winner Abraham Shakespeare, whose body was found buried under concrete at a home in Plant City, Florida. She'd been the primary suspect all along...

Moore, who originally approached the $31 million lottery winner under the auspices of writing his biography, eventually became his financial adviser. But it appears most of her advice involved transferring Shakespeare's money to Dee Dee Moore.

Police say Dee Dee Moore sent letters and texts purportedly from Shakespeare. One problem: Shakespeare could neither read nor write.
She moved roughly $1 million of his money to her own account. Bought his million-dollar home for just $655,000. And when Shakespeare went missing last April, police say she began trying to convince people to claim they'd seen him.

But she wasn't a particularly cunning criminal. Police say she sent letters and text messages to Shakespeare's family that were purportedly from the lottery winner. One problem: Shakespeare was illiterate, which would have made letter writing and texting rather difficult.

Police say they were tipped off by an associate of Moore that Shakespeare's body was buried under relatively new concrete at the home office of Howard Stitzel, said to be Moore's boyfriend. Detectives believe he was killed sometime in April.

Moore, naturally, has proclaimed her innocence, painting herself as the victim. But since the sheriff has repeatedly called her a con artist, we doubt anyone's buying.
