again, money brings out the very best and worst in all of us - it's sad that she had to break up with him after the fact - making it seem as if she was the one that let the money get to her and changed her - sad all around. no further comments from me on this

My, my. This is just too sad. And she had four children. This man is the kind that deserves the death penalty! Lethal injection is too good. And all this talk about humane executions. Were the victims ever murdered humanely!?? Perhaps he should be executerd the way he executed.

I wish she had chosen lump sum. It appears that she had done some planning. I know nothing about these things and would have definitely hired a financial advisor and lawyer. With the limited knowledge I have, I have al... [ More ]

actually the kids may get nothing because annuitized jackpots are taxed at ther full futre value ....so unless they can come up the money to pay the taxes in full they may end up owing money or in debt. cash value is better. they will be taxed on the 5 million....at 50% estated tax...its 2.5 million unless she planned some sort of trustb

I think he was jealous that's why he killed her.Someone told me if i win the lottery don't tell nobody ,take your money and skip town,because people will come from nowhere and ask you for money .I agree with him,plus there's a lot of jealous people out there.I won $700 from a quick pick game few months ago some people who work with me were jealous,if i win the lotto i won't tell anyone.

And, according to a press release from the Georgia Lottery Corp., she declared This is the best birthday ever.

On Monday, Murray was found dead in the same modest block home she had lived in on
