For Love Sake: Again, $188M Powerball Winner Bails Out Her Drug Dealer Boyfriend, Paid His $6M Bond

Fontella Marie Holmes, the single mother who won $188 million in the Brunswick County (NC) Powerball Lottery, paid $6 million to bail her drug dealer boyfriend out of jail again.

Holmes, 26, became a minor overnight celebrity when she went to pick up her big check, wearing a wool beanie and a smile as wide as Texas.

At the time Holmes said she would use her windfall to travel and make a better life for her children.

“I don’t have to worry about depending on nobody, I can do it all by myself. I can go back to school and make an even better life for my kids,” Holmes said in February after winning the $188 million jackpot.

But as soon as she received $127 million in one lump sum payment, Holmes paid $300,000 — 10% of her live-in boyfriend Lamar McDow’s $3 million bond — to spring him out of jail.

Then last month, the Shallotte, North Carolina native was arrested for marijuana possession. Her gang-affiliated drug dealer boyfriend was also arrested on an outstanding weapons charge.

A judge was so irked that a violent gang member was out on the streets that he raised McDow’s bond to $6 million cash.

But Holmes promptly paid the $6 million to bond McDow out of jail again.

Also arrested in the drug bust at Holmes’ house were Damarius Simmons, 21 and Danell McNeil, 31, who police say lived at the house with Holmes, McDow and Holmes’s children.

McDow was arrested last November on numerous drug charges in connection with a drug seizure last summer of 8,000 bags of heroin.

Many criticized Holmes for bailing a known gang banger and drug dealer out of jail twice.

“Where was this boyfriend when you were without, living in a trailer with your kids, mother, and uncle? Did he do for you and your kids?,” asked one commenter on Starnewsonline.com.

Over Here Guys!; Mosanto Develops Revolutionary New Penis-Enlarging Corn Crop. (Must Read)

The multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, Monsanto, announced this morning, that they had genetically engineered a modified corn crop, designed to help men have larger penises and longer-lasting erections. The company’s scientists used genes from a number of plants to create this surprising species of transgenic corn, described as “more efficient than any penis-enlarging pill”. They notably used genetic material from a plant native to Indonesia and Malaysia, called Eurycoma Longifolia or Tongkat Ali , which is known for its ability to raise testosterone levels. They also used genes from watermelon, as its rind is a good natural source of citrulline, a dietary precursor which causes the penis to fill up nitric oxide. This relaxes the smooth muscle in blood vessels and erectile organs, augmenting the penis’ capacity for enlargement during erection. “Men will...
