Barb Reddick from Margaree Forks, Nova Scotia, Canada, recently scored big in a ‘lottery.’ Her town runs a local lottery that works like a raffle, it has a huge prize and then smaller prizes.
On Wednesday, she won the jackpot with her nephew, Tyrone MacInnis. Both of their names were on the ticket, so they split the prize of $930,000.
They each got checks for half, took smiling pictures, and then yesterday, Barb changed her mind.
“Supposedly” Barb told her nephew they could split the consolation prizes from the lottery, but not the grand prize. Now she’s suing him to get his half of the money.
She says she doesn’t think he deserves the money, and she only put his name on the ticket, quote, “For good luck. Because he’s like a son to me . . . he was.”
