The article does not address what I consider to be one of the most confusing elements of this story:

> as an employee of the association that administered the lottery, he was barred by law from buying lotto tickets or claiming lottery prizes

As the head of computer security for the state lottery association, he was surely aware that his position precluded him from being able to win the lottery. Why did he buy the ticket, then?




the remainder of the paragraph you have quoted from explains it.
