I was dating a mafia family member in Youngstown OH back in 1980s and saw how the families always won the local lotteries, even the ones where you win a new 10 speed bike or something.

Eventually the feds swooped in and almost everyone in the Youngstown or Mahoning county governments were indicted for something, even the damn dog catcher was indicted. I shit you not, the dog catcher was indicted.
