Yup - here's a follow up story! Same reporter. This article looks okay. That's the problem with deadlines and breaking news headlines.

Now I remember why I quit buying scratch-offs. lol

And I agree with you about the spelling issue. There's a TV station here that always has something misspelled (should that be one s or 2?) during their local newscast. One time they had their own reporter's name spelled wrong!!! Sheesh

Indeed!

A clerk stole 200 books of scratch-off tickets beginning in March 2006 (totaling $125,000) and cashed in about $12,000 in prizes.

Tonight's headline:

Decetives arrest man who stole lottery tickets

Decetives? Maybe the Fort Myers News-Press should use a spellchecker!

(yes, I make mistakes all the time, but I'm not a journalist writing headlines!)

Anyway, it was on the 11:00 news too. A clerk stole 200 books of scratch-off tickets beginning in March 2006 (totaling $125,000) and cashed in about $12,000 in prizes.

Maybe this should tell us something about the odds
