Police continue to hone in on the woman that Long Island motivational speaker Jeff Locker contacted in East Harlem and is believed to be one of the suspects in the brutal murder that took place while he was being robbed inside his car Thursday morning. The woman along with two men, all described as black and in their mid-20s, were captured on surveillance video while they withdrew from Locker's bank account $200 each at seven different neighborhood ATMs. Yesterday the Post said that police believed the woman to be Locker's girlfriend; today the Daily News is quoting police sources that say it's a prostitute Locker had called from his cell and they're looking for. The paper also gets a graphic description from a mortician who arrived at Locker's body inside his car and tells them, "I knocked on the window to see if he was asleep or doped up or whatever. I saw his mouth open...His shirt had a bunch of holes and there was blood. The blood was dried. His head was back. His hands were tied behind his back. He was pale."

Gawd what a mess that title is. Someone was absent on preposition day in the 8th grade :-) Never end a sentence (or title) with a preposition, not to mention it's just awkward. As you read you start to think who was the woman motivational speaker the cops are hunting? Oh wait, it's the dead motivational speaker and it's the woman for whom the police are searching.
Billy's writing often needs a lot of work (Sorry, Billy -- it's true), and the title may have been unclear originally, but there's nothing wrong with ending a sentence with a preposition.

So if everyone could join together to spread the word about this myth, the world would be a better place to live in.
Hehe. Strike the "but" in the first sentence.
It's not a myth, and your link doesn't justify the poor grammatical structure used in the previous title. It actually reinforces the fact that it was incorrect.
Sentences can end with prepositions as long as there is clarity of meaning. example == "What is that for?" English is a living language and use changes over time. I agree that sometimes ending prepositions are awkward, and then it is best to revise the sentence.
What does the word "gawd" mean?
And this gobbledy goob is understandable?
"As you read you start to think who was the woman motivational speaker the cops are hunting? Oh wait, it's the dead motivational speaker and it's the woman for whom the police are searching."
The photo looks like a before photo for that hair replacement outfit that was on TV a few years back. He kind of looks like the owner and a "client" also.
It's great that they have pics of the alleged perps. Nice to see they managed to get $1,400 out of this caper. Split three ways, that comes out to almost $475 each. That divided by 15 years equals $31 a year pure profit.
Yay! Now it is a much better title! Thanks!
I am truly saddened at the death of this man.
I am so sick of seeing this picture.
He looks like a bad 80's sitcom sidekick.
Since he was 52 when he died and looks to be in his 30s in that photo, that's probably about when the shot was taken.
I bet that photo was taken last week. You know what all these motivational speakers have in common? Denial. Deny your true age, deny your double life, deny your douchiness, deny, deny, deny....
Sure, which falls into line with my belief. Denial as in using a 20-year old photo because you think you still look like that.
Why did someone kill cousin larry? Does someone know Balkie's last whereabouts?
totally
for real
New headline.
"Motivational Speaker does not talk himself out of a simple misunderstanding." Wife disappointed at news that she finally realized the guy was basically a bullshitter with a receding hairline and a scumball.
Simple misunderstanding? These fuckers were willing to kill for $1,400. That doesn't represent a lack of motivation.
This story is Donny Darko all the way.
Enough!
STILL a more dignified death than croaking while jerking off in the closet with a noose around the neck.
I was so hoping that was Billy Crystal. Oh well.
You're evil. I like that.
I dont understand how someone can be so stupid.hookering up with a black prostitute at 330am in housing project in harlem will only lead to trouble. the stats also show black women are the fasting growing group in new AIDS cases in the city partly because many black men are closet homos and are into thug on thug hookups and also because SHES A HOOKER Stupid Moron Hope he had nice life insurance policy for his family and his poor wife needs to run out and get AIDS Test
Are you sure about your facts? 330AM, housing project, Harlem, black prostitute, AIDS, black men, homos, thugs.
"hookering up" ?
It's like hooking up with a hooker. Get it?
As for "the fasting growing group in new AIDS cases" (maybe the fastest growing group that also happens to not eat for days at the same time?) and the random caps and punctuation, I'm just as lost as you are. I trust the validity of bts220's statistics as much as I trust Cheyenne Jeudy's Twitter stream for spell checking.
No doubt this guy had problems, but nobody deserves to die like that. And nobody's spouse deserves to find out her husband isn't the guy she thought he was through his brutal murder.
Sad news all around.
maybe his wife and Steve McNair's can start a support group? Oh! and then become motivational speakers!
What a fascinating take most of you morons concentrate on. If your brains were as erudite as your grammar, you could probably rule the world.
I knew Jeff, worked with him a number of years ago, and received good value for my investment. He was a decent guy, and whether he was with a hooker or not, he didn't deserve to die for a lapse in good judgement.
Just be careful when YOU open YOUR closet that the skeletons are well-hidden. I don't think any of us could live our lives on the front page of the New York Times.
