stealing a lottery jackpot

oregonian Christina Goodenow had the good lock to win a million dollar jackpot.
unfortunately she had the bad sense to buy the winning ticket with a stolen credit card.

after ms goodenow collected the initial $33,500 payout, the authorities discovered the shenanigans along with other criminal activity which may cause a forfeiture of the winnings.

personally, i think the money should go to the person whose credit card was used, incidentally the estate of a dead relative in this case. either that, or it should not be considered a lottery win and rolled over into a larger jackpot.
