Following the Powerball announcement, Farthing and his girlfriend flew to a beachfront resort in Florida to celebrate his good--and immense--fortune. Before traveling south, however, Farthing failed to take care of one crucial matter: getting permission from his parole officer to leave the Bluegrass State.
e has a 16-page rap sheet and a dizzying criminal record that spans 35 years and includes convictions in at least nine counties and from every corner of Kentucky’s penal code.
A day into his recent short-lived Florida vacation, Farthing allegedly punched a guest in the face during an 11 PM argument at the TradeWinds Resort in St. Pete Beach. When a cop sought to break up the fight, Farthing kicked him in the face “in an attempt to injure and or incapacitate myself,” according to an arrest affidavit sworn by the officer.

probably doesn’t want to deal with all the relatives coming out of nowhere for a handout...
Oh, please, please, please let this dumbbarse cash it out and leave monies in care of his “GF”.
Yeah, go to jail. Let’s see what is awaiting your release.
One of the best reasons for abolishing this regressive tax on stupid people. Because even for the lucky ones who win, they remain losers.
DEAR God,please just once let someone really good get lucky.
Bad people can sometimes have good luck.
I looked up the Tradewinds where he stayed. Nice place. For a day. Hahahaha
Probably safer in jail. Lol. He can buy protection.
Sometimes you just have to wonder what kind of rat’s nest of a brain some people have.
Here this guy wins enough money to solve any and all of his problems * 1000x
And the first thing he does is to violate his parole, kick somebodys face in, and assault a cop. At the luxury resort he goes to celebrate his big win.
Cup ‘o noodles on tap.
Yes chum not like in pal but shark bait.
He’s proof luck is no lady.
Matthew 5:44-46..
44 But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you,
45 that ye may be the children of your Father who is in Heaven. For He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
Lotteries are a tax on the poor and stupid. And even when they “win” studies have shown that their lives go downhill as people are always after their money, they don’t know how to handle their newfound wealth, and the stress of it all takes its toll. If you hate your enemy, pray for them to win a lottery.
—”And even when they “win” studies have shown that their lives go downhill”
A friend of a friend won two million.
A few years later, he said he overspent and had to return to work.
It’s kinda like what Dave Ramsey frequently says. Money will only enhance who you already are inside. I’m always astounded that some people who inherit or win jackpots can wind up in poverty and utterly destroy their own lives through unwise choices.
Like me.
He probably violated parole in order to claim the prize. He will finish out his sentence until people forget that he won.
Ignorance on money matters. To somebody without money, a couple of million looks like enough that it will last forever, so they spend that way.
