Powerball winner Marie Holmes is back in the news again over an encounter with the law. Holmes reached fame when she won $127 million after taxes last year. Since then, she has spent millions bailing her boyfriend Lamarr “Hot Sauce” McDow out of jail. Apparently, McDow has quite a reputation with the ladies in town and his alleged philandering has caused friction between Holmes and a woman named Lorna Marlowe.
According to criminal charges, Holmes is accused of making threatening and harassing phone calls on January 10, 2016. In addition, Holmes is alleged to have threatened bodily harm during the phone calls to the woman. A Facebook video shows an unidentified woman calling out Holmes for her tough talk and relationship to “Hot Sauce.” The vulgar and profanity laced video tirade claims that “Hot Sauce” uses money Holmes gives him to buy sex from neighborhood women. The speaker also goes on to state that Holmes is insecure and has called some of these women to find out if her man was cheating. Holmes has bailed McDow, who is also her child’s father, out of jail at least three times, paying bail in the millions on drug and weapons charges. She must now appear in court on February 12 to answer the criminal charges or be cited for contempt and face jail time.
