James Rodney Hicks Part 1
February 3, 2022
•71m
In 1977 Jennie Hicks seemingly vanished from her home in Carmel Maine, leaving her two children behind with her husband James Hicks... at least that was James’ story. Those who knew Jennie were adamant that there was no way she would have left her children, especially not with her husband who was known to physically abuse her. When law enforcement didn’t seem interested in actually investigating Jennie’s disappearance that left James free to do as he pleased, and a few years later would leave another young mother missing and presumed dead.

In November of 2006 a man named Abraham Shakespeare won the lottery jackpot worth $31 million. Abraham was known as a generous, kind man who would do anything to help his friends, family or children out. Unfortunately a cold-blooded, manipulative woman by the name of Dee Dee Moore would make the acquaintance of Abraham Shakespeare and swindle him out of his millions. Before long, people stopped hearing from Abraham, and some feared the worst. Was he murdered or simply trying to get away from the pressure of it all?
