Booker T. Tate has a couple of Durham addresses. And a criminal record. I found him both in zabasearch and veromi. He is 48 - a little old for Crystal.
The screen name Tate and claiming to be a relative was an interesting coincidence.
I thought so too. So when I saw a relationship to Lavonia (and his having a rap), my brain went into leave no stone unturned.
Did you happen to notice who was the judge for his sentencing? I went to sleep wondering..
