Yep, his uncle held on to the ticket for a few weeks but couldn't claim the ticket as his own since being a lottery retailer and claiming the prize would deinitely set off alarm bells. So he gave the ticket for his nephew to claim hoping it wouldn't get noticed. Jawed cracked big time under investigation.
