* She didn't smile because she had no reason to. She listened to what the loser said didn't feel that she had to respond to he's foolishness. He confessed on live TV that he was incapable of thinking clearly. that's when she began plotting her move to deep six the so called relationship. The guy whined about losing out to another guy.

I looked up Canadian law and while they do not have common law marriage, they do have a cohabitation legal concept which would be an easier standard to meet if this couple lived together at the time of the win (and therefore might have to share this win).

nah, they will still buy the same low quality drugs they always buy, just in larger quantities now. the only winners in this story are the lawyers and the dealers.

He should have just pocketed the ticket at the time.

Gey your ID in order, open a bank account and then claim the prize.

Then you could give her a part of the winnings (50/50 sounds fair)

She played him good...

Guess he got what he deserved by doing things the way he did.

I think she looks unhappy because things didn't go as she thought it would. I wonder if she knew there would be a video of the two of them together? Maybe her other boyfriend didn't know about Campbell ?

I think she just thought it would be so simple as picking up the check and be gone .

What I want to know is,

1) After he bought the ticket and forgot about it how did it end up on the ground at his friends house a few days later? Then he finds a ticket (his?) laying on the ground, scans it and learns it's a winner.

2) If McKay was holding the ticket because he lost his wallet did she drop it at the friends house? Was the friend her lover?

3 ) Why didn't he take the time to replace his ID before he claimed it? Did McKay convince him to claim it now and we'll put it... [ More ]

* he found his ticket on the ground at a friend's place

* he searched spots where she is known to party

* he doesn't have a bank account

* the location where he bought the ticket is a bad neighboorhood (a review writes Can't even go into the store anymore. Crime so bad, thank you junkies. )

Whoever ends up being able to keep the money is going to blow it on drugs (the expensive good quality kind instead of the usual garbage they consume). Sad.

not all Women can be trusted and I am a lady saying that.

Same as not all Men. SMH, kinda feel bad a lil bit for him.

I'm hoping (again) IF true he hires a Johnny Cochran/Robert Shapiro type of lawyer that is really 1 of the best where he is, or somewhere.

I'm hoping he is going to procure his winnings . I am hoping he has proof(s) evidence to assist/help him win if it is true what we are hearing/reading here. smh

But if the lottery did tell or suggest for him to allow her to claim it, he still has a chance. I know one can get a temporary license if you lose your license. Maybe she tossed his wallet.

But he sounds like a loser personally. I am not certain but we do not know if they were living together and for how long and this factor could have some weight.

Plus he's on the news, on camera, saying he bought the ticket for her as a birthday gift

She shoots. She scores. Nothing but net. He can tell all the stories he wants to, but even if they're true he's said on record that the ticket belongs to her. That's going to make his case an incredibly hard sale to make.

* My point exactly. He stated that she had been asking him for 3 weeks to get a ticket he didn't. Heck, if you want her staying in your bed, you'd better listen. She bailed on him because he is a loser. Who the heck airs dirty laundry to the press on finding your gal in another guy's bed. Why did we even have to know? Like l said, he's a loser on all fronts, the gal, the ticket he's grasping at straws.l think the judge is just massaging his ego. Only a loser stays with a loser. Btw- we all loser... [ More ]

My understanding of ground and I could be wrong, is surface of the earth.

Most likely some place outside of a building.

If he found it on the floor it would be inside a building.

If it was outside, guess the wind was on vacation and the ticket was not blow away to the neighbors property, mmh

* l am sorry, but Krystal figured out Lawrence was a loser a long time ago. She ended up with another guy because Campbell was not her type. Who in their right mind starts blaming the lottery liquor organization for their own lack of critical thinking. These two weren't even married Campbell is saying they suggested he let her claim the money? Campbell loses both the money the gal? I don't buy it, Krystal moved on this reeks of jealousy if you ask me. Just saying..

This guy is very sloppy, He buys the ticket, forgets about it, then finds the ticket on the ground at a friend's house.Goes to claim the ticket with no identification , doesn't even have a bank account. Then let's someone else claim the prize. Hard to have any sympathy for this idiot.

It shocking how dumb one person can be.

Wonder how long it would take to get an ID and open his own bank account.

His end of the story doesn't add up.

I am not saying don't love your partner or spouse or whatever, all I am saying is, when money is involved, especially a lot of money, people can change.

Not every partnership ends up happily forever after.

People stay married for 50 plus years and some end up divorcing, it happens.

Love and Trust are two separate things, please don't get them mixed up

It makes no difference if it's now or later. If he is that gullible he would/ or will lose it all in the end.
