Iowa Lottery Winner May Go To Prison
What the what? Here's a guy who wishes he hadn't won $900.
Usually winning $900 on a Lottery scratch-off ticket would be a good thing.
Not so for 36-year-old Mickey L. Stone of Winchester, Iowa. The problem is Mickey bought his winning ticket at the liquor store where he was employed.
That is a huge no-no. So he was charged with unlawful purchase of a lottery ticket by an employee, a misdemeanor that could put him behind bars for a year!
