I didn’t understand why he was scared of the kid. He should’ve just turned him in for hacking their database.

I think the Jerry character was so good, that he didn't want to give the kids any reason to damage their own lives. I don't think that he even turned them in to the lottery commission (which he could have). Maybe they were trying to show that he'd give up a ton of money for the town, if it meant keeping things from escalating into serious criminal problems (for anyone).
