Marie Holmes, a mother of 4, made national headlines last February after winning a massive $188 million Powerball jackpot. After taxes, she walked away with an $88 million lump sum payment. Despite coming into a substantial amount of wealth, her boyfriend Lamarr McDow can’t seem to live his life right by the law and has been in and out of jail.
He was re-arrested during a raid in July for violating his pre-trial release. He posted a $6 million bond at that time.
On December 26th, Lamarr got arrested again on a misdemeanor charge of conspiring to arrange a street race. He was booked under a $12 million bond — which he posted.
His bonds are skyrocketing because the amount automatically doubles if a defendant breaks the rules of a pre-trial release, local attorneys told WECT. The non-refundable fee paid to bail bondsmen who bail out an inmate usually amounts to roughly 10% of the total bond amount.
On top of the bond postings, it appears that 27-year-old Marie Holmes has also paid approximately an additional $1,470,000 in fees she will never get back after posting bond for her live-in boyfriend, 31-year-old Lamarr McDow.
She has spent a total of $21 million bailing him from jail in less than 1 year. She has 4 children to think about. 4 children whose future I hope she has secured financially, in terms of going to University and their general well being.
I don’t understand what is going on with her, why would she waste it on a criminal…repeatedly?
