He has come out clean on the other side, how so you ask? Well take a gander at these facts: According to the LP information-Between 2011- 2017, Clarence pulled in $10.8 million. Paid something like $16,000 in taxes. Was told- he could serve up to 8 years in prison have a $350,000 fine handed to him.

Well as luck would have it, Jones served less than 3 months in prison. Taking $350K from $10.8 is nothing more than a mild headache.At 80 years of age, Clarence couldn't give a S**%%.! As l said C... [ More ]

but come out clean on the other side ? tax evasion is a felony offense, plus I might have missed it in the article but normally the gov will make your pay it back! and if he says he does not have it or he spent it? they will watch him like a hawk! he might not be able to get a passport! they have jammed up movie stars over not paying their taxes

Prosecutors said Jones who received a two-month federal prison sentence in September cashed out about 4,670 tickets between January 2013 and December 2016 Prosecutors said Jones who received a two-month federal prison sentence in September @ this jones guy, I bet u wish u did not do it, now u have a felony record.

with State Auditor General Eugene DePasquale on two points only. I don t believe in coincidences

either. Senior Lottery players the general public deserve to know were every dollar is spent not just

prize money. It's called being accountable to the players the public. With his mouth , he is saying he

concern about the senior citizens, price breaks, taxes, home care etc.....His action is total different. Most

company's wouldn't go a 2nd round on a $1.3 million bid-out job unle... [ More ]

Seniors, lottery players and the general public deserve to know if every dollar of those prizes was claimed in accordance with the law.

Interesting how they added in accordance with the law that still opens the door for claiming anonymously. It looks like lots of lotteries are going after the it's your money, get it now people that are probably paying 50 cents on the dollar or less on winning tickets.

Jones, unlike Indiana- is in the history books. He is not a fictional character. I mean you collect $6 mil, spend a little time in jail, but come out clean on the other side.Jones was born under a lucky star.

It's nice to know that the taxpayers had to shell out 900K to settle a lawsuit against a Revenue Dept. regional manager. Why didn't he pay it himself

Last fiscal year, Pennsylvania Lottery players bought $4.5 billion in game tickets and claimed more than $2.9 billion in prizes, DePasquale said in announcing the new review at the state Capitol. Seniors, lottery... [ More ]
