Maybe some of the Lottery Officials and other officials in New Jersey should be investigated and prosecuted surrounding the June 9, 2000 winning ticket which seems obvious that they participated in a cover-up to help, Al Oliver, aka Melvin Milligan, claim my ticket by hiding the winner as if it were a Pick-6 ticket, indicateing that it was a annuity ticket, when it was a cash ticket which is chosen when purchased, and indicating that the ticket was paid May 21, 2001, when news coverage indicated he mailed it in right before June 9, 2001 when the ticket was about to expire.

at only 24000 stolen in 23 years she'd be cheaper than the woman in charge of the tennesee lottery.

For some reason I never heard of the Pick-6 agent lying about the choice on the ticket.

In response to lottery agent's lying about annuity or cash.  There's always a first time for us to hear things.  When people in position do secret things their hope is that when someone uncovers the truth that no one will believe them.  That's why so many people have gotten away with wrongdoing.  However, I know the ticket was a cash payment ticket because I purchased it.  Furthermore, after I was given a hard time, I was finally allowed to come and inspect the ticket and I have a copy of it to prove it was a cash payment ticket.  People do a lot of things when it comes to that type of money.  After the things I have experienced which I'm trying my best to get publicized, I know that lottery breeds corruption.

jacaesar,

I read the story about Melvin Milligan claiming his ticket at

http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/06/15/lottery.winner.03/

and it was for cash and after he mail it in, he showed up later to collect the check.  That doesn't sound like a cover-up to me.

AFAIC the biggest form of lottery corruption is forcing big winners to receive X years of annuity payments, without the winner being allowed to take the cash value in lump sum.

Corruption and cover-up will exist as long as people continue to put their head in the sand in disbelief when it's not affecting them.  People in responsble positions are not exempt from lying.  In fact, they are more apt to do so because of people like you who will ignore the truth.  However, check out the NJLottery.org website for yourself under Games and Prizes, Winner's List Search and you'll see for yourself.  Put in Passaic and and scan down to 05/21/01.  That's where you'll see Melvin Milligan's name under Pick-6, not Big Game and the date as 05/21/01 rather than some time after June 7th, 2001 when he purportedly mailed in the ticket.  Also, Al Oliver aka Melvin Milligan could be responsible for giving them an incorrect name, but in the story that you referenced indicated the purchase date was Friday, June 9, 2000.  The lottery officials have the information to know that that was incorrect. But I guess someone like you will see all these inconsistencies as mistakes rather than cover-up/corruption.  And corruption lives on.....
