Arkansas Lottery Security Official Pleads Guilty to Stealing Nearly Half a Million Dollars In Lottery Tickets

This is just disgusting! I play the lottery and it really pisses me off that a Lottery Official would steal lottery scratch off tickets. Especially knowing that he made almost $77,000.00 in salary last year! For Arkansas this is a really good salary! Hell for California, that's a really good salary! hahahaha Remmele Mazyck, 34 had been working for the Arkansas Lottery ever since it was started in 2009 in Arkansas. He worked as a security official and part of his duties were to sign out lottery tickets that would be given away at promotional giveaways. And he was caught trying to cash in some tickets that were from a store that was no longer in business and the savvy clerk got suspicious and questioned him. In Arkansas, winning tickets that have a value that is less than $500.00 may be cashed in at any lottery retailer, but winning scratch off tickets with a cash value of $500 or more must be cashed in at a Lottery Office. Mazyck plead guilty to money laundering and wire fraud charges today in Federal Court. He will be sentenced at a later date. I hope they throw the book at him! He needs to go to real prison too. No country club prison for him!
