SS: Jeffrey Epstein gewann 2008 den Powerball-Jackpot. Wie hoch ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass ein Milliardär einen Lottoschein kauft? Wenn es ihnen gelingt, gelegentlich den Aktienmarkt zu manipulieren oder ungestraft mit Waffen zu handeln, können sie vielleicht leicht einen bestimmten Prozentsatz der Lotterien manipulieren. Würden sie das System erpressen oder hacken? Ich habe auch gehört, dass es einen „Fehler“ gab, der die Powerball-Ankündigung in der Nacht, in der Epstein gewann, verzögerte. Wie hoch ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass es genau wie die Kameras in seiner Gefängniszelle einen Fehler gemacht hat? Wie kann es sein, dass Sie technische Schwierigkeiten haben, sechs Bälle aus einem Eimer zu ziehen?

Yes or yes? Whitey Bulger won it too somehow.. and if I’m not mistaken, Epstein won it not once, but twice. Calculate those odds definitely sus
Lottery is a tax on the Stupid
should be eye opening
It would make sense.
1) why would Epstein need to win any lottery?
2) why did you highlight Zorro Trust?
# It was a different Zorro Trust.
OP links a *picture* of a newspaper article, but later in the very same article ([archived link](https://archive.ph/6G2iP)):
> The winner is a woman who worked evenings at United Supermarket in Altus, the store’s meat department manager confirmed. Larry Cox declined to provide his former co-worker’s name, saying the woman had requested anonymity.
> „But if you had to pick someone in town to win it, she’d be in the one I’d pick,” Cox said.
> „It was just meant to be, I guess,” he said.
> The grocery store, at 600 E Broadway, is less than a block from the Stripe’s convenience store that sold the winning ticket.
A lawyer created a Zorro Trust in Oklahoma so she could remain anonymous. There can be a lot of Zorro Trusts just like there can be a lot of John Smiths. Epstein does not own the name Zorro.
> Jeffrey Epstein won the Powerball jackpot prize in 2008
You’re just asserting this like it’s fact but it’s not. The last time this came up I did some digging and found an article that said the „Zorro Trust“ in this case was a newly created trust set up to claim the winnings, and it was created by some local podunk firm in the area where the the ticket was bought. There was absolutely nothing tying it to Epstein except that he also used the name „Zorro Trust“ for a trust he created over a decade earlier for his ranch in an entirely different state.
A European gambling group purchased $26 million in tickets from the Texas Lotto and won $57.8 million, so it is entirely possible to game the lottery. [Texas Lottery $95M Jackpot Scandal: Strategy, Controversy & Reforms](https://tnj.com/texas-lottery-95m-jackpot-scandal/)
Texas passed [SB3070](https://legiscan.com/TX/bill/SB3070/2025) to counteract this, but I’m sure there are plenty of other states you can do the same
Casinos historically are used for money laundering by organized crime and intelligence agencies; resorts international is one notable example. Criminals come in with money they want to obfuscate, they hand it off to the staff, then they „win“ that same amount from the casino. Usually on the scale of millions. It would not shock me at all if the powerball operated similarly.
Ummmm…. Yes
Giving random people millions. Of course it is.
This is pretty common in states where you can’t claim a winning ticket anonymously.
I want any kind of filled donut right now, I don’t know why.
I remember hearing a theory that lottery winners usually have something in common, they are currently work for or previously worked for the government in some capacity.
If he was an intelligence asset, this actually tracks.
Probably arb’d it like that Cranston movie
Lotteries (and the myth of meritocracy) hinge on random reward psychology.

So you let people believe in a false hope that they can be winners, pull themselves up by their bootstraps, elect a politician etc. And you reward them occasionally, to reinforce the illusion of control.
Let that be a lesson to you kids, the lottery is fixed, always has been, always will be a slush fund for the select. Your best bet, if you must, is scratch off tickets. Those are for the little people.
Yeah, isn’t the lottery a way to fund cia and other black projects? It’s smart and makes a lot of sense plus keeps the money trail obscured
