A North Carolina man who scored a $10 million lottery prize is now convicted of first-degree murder.
In August 2017, Michael Hill said he bought a non-winning ticket before deciding to try his luck on another scratch-off game. When he checked the new ticket, he discovered his “life changing” jackpot win.
“I saw the one and then the zero and it still didn’t hit me,” he told the N.C. Education Lottery at the time. “But then I saw the ‘M.’ My heart dropped down to my toes and I lost my breath.”
