Billion-Dollar Winner of Mega Millions in South Carolina Hasn’t Come Forward
January 4, 2019
It's been 10 weeks since one lucky person won the $1.5 billion Mega Millions jackpot, but no one's come forward to claim the prize. Inside Edition went to Simpsonville, South Carolina, where the ticket was purchased, to ask around about the mysterious winner. Rumor has it, he's an auto mechanic who quit his job the day he discovered he'd won. At the Coach House restaurant, no one was talking, with most saying they have “no idea” where the winner is. Mayor Janice Kurtis was similarly tight-lipped. “I have no idea who it is and if I did know who it was I wouldn't tell ya,” she told Inside Edition.
