Title: Re: Unclaimed lotto prizes... Post by: bolt pp on January 10, 2010, 10:17:23 PM wasnt there a story of a guy that baught a ticket on day release and scooped the jackpot but had to go back to jail but they wouldnt let him have it or something when he got released because he was a sex offender and they thought it would increase his chances of re-offending, it was a high profile case i think but i cant exactly remember what it was about? it was a few years ago.

Post by: bolt pp on January 10, 2010, 11:10:58 PM It's not in that article but there was some legal thing about them not letting him keep it when he was released as it would help him to leave the country which would break the conditions of his release or help him offend again, why he told them that he'd won it i dont know but obv they let him keep it.
