lawrocket 3 #2 January 6, 2004 She's full of shit. The one person with the winning ticket produced it. I feel bad for a lot of people, but not her. I think she should go to jail for filing a false police report. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 0 #7 January 6, 2004 Even if she's telling the truth and she lost the ticket, if she can't prove the purchase of that ticket ( the winning ticket) she's S.O.L.!

kelel01 1 #8 January 6, 2004 Maybe I'm just too nice, but if I FOUND a lottery ticket on the ground and proceeded to win $140 million with it, I think I would offer to split it. I think I'd get by. Flame on, sky brothers and sisters. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 0 #10 January 6, 2004 If you admitted finding the ticket it would have to be held while they tried to contact the actual purchaser, if possible. Just think of all the people who would be trying to claim that ticket! If they found that person or someone could prove their purchase you'd be S.O.L. and unless they were very very nice you'd get zip zero zilch.

kelel01 1 #11 January 6, 2004 Ok, clarification. If I found it in the place where that woman claimed to have lost it, AFTER she stated that she lost it there, I would admit that I found it, and say "Hey, how about we go 50/50?" But I wouldn't say shit until the other person came forward. I'm nice, but I'm not retarded. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jfields 0 #14 January 6, 2004 QuoteIf they found that person or someone could prove their purchase you'd be S.O.L. and unless they were very very nice you'd get zip zero zilch. I don't think so. From my understanding, they are "bearer instruments". So just proving their purchase wouldn't be enough. They would actually have to prove theft, not just that they at one time had the ticket. It is like a dollar bill. I had it, then I gave it to you in exchange for something, so now it is yours. Matching serial number to possession at some point isn't enough. So, if you win the lottery, don't tell anyone until you are at the lottery office claiming your prize. Then talk to a good lawyer and a good accountant. No. Scratch that. Just give me the money.

MikeMcLean 0 #18 January 6, 2004 QuoteEven if she's telling the truth and she lost the ticket, if she can't prove the purchase of that ticket ( the winning ticket) she's S.O.L.! Probably not; it may be eaiser for the realy winner to "settle" out of court if she sues. She has very little to loose with a lawsuit (probably can get someone to take it on contingency) and the possibility of a large win.It wouldn't hurt you to think like a fucking serial killer every once in a while - just for the sake of prevention Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #19 January 6, 2004 This is why cops should be allowed to hit people with a "stupid stick." An axe handle would be perfect for that.

sdgregory 0 #22 January 6, 2004 They should hit her with CS and throw the winning lottery ticket on the floor in front of her with ten others. If she can correctly identify it then . . . smack her in the head for being stupid enough to loose it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoostedXT 0 #23 January 6, 2004 Doesnt most lottery systems when the ticket is produced record the number of every ticket sold at each location in the computer. That is why before anyone comes forward they can say the ticket was purchased here.....on this date and blah blah blah. If she did purchase the ticket then it would be in the computer. Hypothetical I would ask her if she wanted to go 50/50 then when she said no I would rip it up and burn it. Moo hahaha. I dont know what i would do.
