ICE should pick up Ortiz and his lawyer both for violating immigration laws.

Har har har, you must be a citizen or legal resident to play the lotto, says so on the backs of all the tickets I have ever bought.
He is out of luck and as an illegal alien needs to be arrested and deported.

1. It's going to be difficult, if not impossible, for this illegal immigrant to prove that he bought the winning ticket.

2. Proving that he did buy it will probably invalidate the ticket (like the above posters mention).

3. This illegal immigrant wouldn't be in this position if he'd followed our laws in the first place.

4. This illegal immigrant's story could actually be yet another scam on his part.

5. Illegal immigrants should spend less time playing the lottery and more time studying to becoming legal U.S. citizens.

6. Most legal U.S. citizens are tired of hearing illegal immigrants complain about being treated illegally.

Daily Horoscope for May 19

Leo

This is a good day for concentrating on activities that boost your self-esteem and sense of satisfaction. Do the very best job you can manage, partly for your own sense of pride and partly because it's important for you that bosses and superiors know what you're capable of. There should be good news about a pay rise, perk or a new job that's in the pipeline.
