Theory on Lottery Winner:
What if this $1.9 billion lottery was basically about disbursing funds to all the people who helped with the fraud?
What if, normally, day before election its all in the bag and they know whom to disburse?
What if, this time at last moment, they realised its not in the bag, so they are holding off announcing the winner?
Just spitballing.
Did Epstein win the Powerball lottery while he was in prison?
It’s not a completely crazy question. In August 2008, shortly after Epstein began his 13-month prison sentence in Florida, an entity called the Zorro Trust submitted the winning ticket for an $85 million jackpot. The ticket had been bought at a convenience store in Altus, Oklahoma. (The trust took the money as a lump sum, which came to $29.3 million after taxes.)
As it happens, Epstein had an entity called the Zorro Trust; he used it to make donations to politicians in New Mexico, where he had a ranch called — yep — the Zorro Ranch. (A federal prosecutor in New Mexico has begun an investigation into whether Epstein abused underage girls at his ranch.)
A few years ago, a lawyer representing some alleged victims took the prospect of Epstein winning the lottery seriously enough that he brought it up during a deposition with Epstein’s former pilot. But the Oklahoma City newspaper, the Oklahoman, did a little more digging and discovered that the anonymous winner worked in a grocery store across the street from the convenience store where the winning ticket was sold. Apparently, she decided to use the same name for her trust as Epstein did for his.
Not everything’s a mystery. Sometimes, it’s just a coincidence.

How the fudge they know who the winner was if it was anonymous? Does the store owner have a record of when he sold each number?
What are the odds a woman working at a grocery store who was savvy enough to create a trust fund to collect the winnings to preserve her anonymity would then reveal her identity 11 years later to an Oklahoma City newspaper reporter?
And then what are the odds she just happened to randomly name her trust the Zorro Trust?
This story is air tight. After all, not everything’s a mystery. Sometimes, it’s just a coincidence. Quit thinking.
Those trusts are commonly setup by lawyers for people who win the lottery. They don't have to be geniuses; just smart enough to seek help, which is the received wisdom anyways. She didn't reveal herself. They asked around the neighborhood and found someone who knew her. It makes sense she would tell a few people, particularly at work. Maybe she didn't want to be just disappear on coworkers or at least wanted to let them know why she bailed. it makes sense she'd tell someone.
For all we know, her dog's name is Zorro. My point is: the odds here aren't important. We came upon this case in the first place based on the trust's name. There are thousands of these, but this one was isolated for the potential connection to Epstein.
Are you doing the "askshually" thing in an effort to corroborate a MSM outlet's completely crazy answer to a perfectly logical question?
This isn't Reddit, fren. No need to give Bloomberg the reach around.
