Conviction in Iowa ‘Hot Lotto’ Case
Former lottery official illegally purchased ticket “claimed” under mysterious circumstances

CLIVE, Iowa — An Iowa jury has convicted a former multi-state lottery association official of fraud in a case where prosecutors said he rigged a Hot Lotto game drawing to win a $14.3 million prize...

...In December 2010, a man bought a Hot Lotto ticket at a Des Moines, Iowa, convenience store. That ticket won the Hot Lotto drawing on December 29.

For nearly a year, the prize went unclaimed. Then, with less than two hours to go before the prize would have expired on Dec. 29, 2011, lawyers on behalf of a New York investment trust that had been established to benefit a corporation in the country of Belize presented the winning ticket.

Neither the two lawyers who presented the ticket nor anyone associated with Hexham Investments Trust of Bedford, N.Y., would provide the basic details necessary to verify that the ticket had been legally purchased, legally possessed and legally presented. Those involved said they could not identify the jackpot winner or the man who purchased the winning ticket...
