Maryland Mega Millions 'winner': Leave me alone

[joeybee12]

The Maryland woman who claims to have one of the winning tickets to the largest Mega Millions jackpot in history called a press conference yesterday, didn’t speak and asked – through her lawyer – for the press to leave her alone.

Edward Smith Jr., Baltimore attorney for Mirlande Wilson, gathered the media in his office Wednesday but wouldn’t let his client speak. Wilson, a Haitian immigrant who claims she bought the winning ticket sold in Maryland, wants the reporters to go away.

“That’s really it,” Smith said, “to ask you to go back to your places.”

Let's see...says she has the ticket, will not produce the ticket, holds a press conference, and now wants privacy???????

1. This woman is a crack pot

I read yesterday that she said she left the ticket at the McDonald's she works at in a safe place. If she did win and is scamming her coworkers, my guess is that she let a family member have it, and they are going to collect it at a later date.

2. My first thought was that she did win and was trying to cheat her co-workers...

I mean, if she really does have it, then if she has to share it with about 10 people, big effing deal...it's worth $213 million!

Didn't know she said she left it at McDonald's...that sounds really fishy.
