 Where did you get that figure$? I know some prisoners are more expensive than others (medications especially for AIDS/HIV) medical care but that seems high for a regular healthy inmate.

The biggest irony would be if he won a Lucky for Life type scratch. Instead he ends up with years in a PMITA prison. (Watch Office if you don't get the acronym) The costs per prisoner are wrong. http://www.doc.state.nc.us/DOP/cost/index.htm shows the costs at around $25k for what he will most likely get. Excluding any AIDS/drug rehab/cancer treatments that may or may not happen.

 Or, if it's a phony million-dollar NY scratch game (annuity-only).

This story is yet another example of why you may not want to name your children after yourself. For the record, the reason you read similar stories week after week is that stupid people generally don't... read. So very few low-brow crooks would get concepts like time stamping, ticket block voiding and other authentication/security measures. Set your bookmarks, there'll be another story like it here in the future. In neo-conned Amerika, bank robs you.
Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms should be the name of a convenience store, not a govnoment agency. | | |

Unless you want your son to have a Roman numeral after his last name, giving a child the same first name after his/her parent IMO is a bad idea. | | |
