Chick steals over 2 million dollars. Does she leave the country and buy a dream house? Does she invest it in the stock market overseas? No: She buys 2.3 million dollars worth of stratch off lottery tickets!
That has to be the stupidest crime in the last 10 years.

Was she drunken or something? Stupid kid...

Drunken for three straight years? I doubt it.

I've heard most gambling-related crimes are justified in the criminal's head by saying that once they strike it big they'll pay everything back. But, as Statikk said, she'd have been better just to keep the money and not bother with the scratchies.

Some people have more money then sense. . . Scratch cards rip you off anyway, everyone knows that.
