The part about the malfunction and having to do a live drawing with the auditor was for the pick 3 lotto.. not the powerball. So that part is completely irrelevant. Also every drawing is done in front of legislative auditors. Dated a girl who worked for them in Louisiana.

Eddie Tipton won lottery 14 times scamming a total of $24 million. It can happen.

TL;DR: Epstein won $85 million in the Powerball lottery in 2008, but just before his name was to be announced, the TV station experienced technical difficulties and canceled the broadcast. He claimed the money later, anonymously, through a trust. His pilot confirmed this in a deposition.

You need to take it easy fella. Folks will be questioning how you wouldnt be able to accept that 2 or more people are acting in concert to commit a crime = conspiracy.

Let us go with "Moar tin foil speculation" to avoid confusion.

I've been trying at the Oklahoma Lotto since they brought it here, trying to retire early with OT Baller status...

And this filthy piece of human excrement was a winner, of all fricking people?!?!?!

speaking of which, did we ever find out who won that Billion dollar lotto a few months back? Anyone?


Nope. Part of me thinks they never allowed anyone to win that huge of a payout. They didn’t want to pay it, and it was like 1.7 billion wasn’t it? That would put an ordinary joe immediately in the same category with the truly elite even after taxes. They did not want that

True. They took the time to get a lawyer and set up what they needed to.

What's the connection between a glitch on a pick 3 game and an 85 million dollar powerball draw?

Almost like the OP is selling a conspiracy theory that is totally made up.

Someone was questioned on the Zorro Trust and that means it happened? Uhhh

Hmmm a casual search on this matter led to a Reddit thread, where I encountered this comment:

"Let’s put this into perspective for everyone. In 2008 the treasury department statered working with powerball. A glitch in their computer system caused the drawing to be done off camera and done my a 3 party audit that resulted in the winning ticket going to Epstein. The person who they claim won it a “women” was actually the wife of the guy who is the manager that run Zorro ranch at the time"

Disprove this.

Trying for sarcasm, but the point is, unless you know the actual identity of the winner, you are going to have a hard time disproving it.

Actually what proof do you have that there were two different "Zorro Trusts?"

In the end you are just doing searches, reading anything that seems relevant, then spinning to support your chosen position.

Come on. The lottery is totally rigged.

Not my idea, but in that Reddit thread someone put up this quote from 1984:

"“The Lottery, with its weekly pay-out of enormous prizes, was the one public event to which the proles paid serious attention. It was probable that there were some millions of proles for whom the Lottery was the principal if not the only reason for remaining alive. It was their delight, their folly, their anodyne, their intellectual stimulant. Where the Lottery was concerned, even people who could barely read and write seemed capable of intricate calculations and staggering feats of memory. There was a whole tribe of men who made their living simply by selling systems, forecasts, and lucky amulets. Winston had nothing to do with the Lottery, which was managed by the Ministry of Plenty, but he was aware (indeed everyone in the party was aware) that the prizes were largely imaginary. Only small sums were actually paid out, the winners of the big prizes being nonexistent persons.”
