$1,300 000

DESCRIPTION

Denise Rossi from California shocked her husband by filing for divorce after 25 years of marriage — just days after secretly winning $1.3 million in the lottery.

She planned to keep the money to herself and start a new life. But under California law, lottery winnings are considered shared marital property. When the truth came out, Denise was found guilty of financial fraud — and the entire jackpot was awarded to her ex-husband.
