A woman has been arrested and charged in connection with cashing in her cousin's $1 million prize winning lottery ticket in New York and keeping the money, according to police.
Iris Argueta, 32, was asked by her cousin last year to cash in the winning lottery ticket because he wanted to remain anonymous, according to a joint press release on Tuesday from Nassau County District Attorney's Office and Glen Cove Police Department.
Her cousin agreed to pay her $50,000 in exchange for her claiming the prize from the $5 scratch off ticket that was purchased in Glen Cove, New York, according to the release.
Federal investigators accuse a south Florida man of traversing two continents, stealing license plates and obscuring a security camera to kidnap his estranged wife at her apartment in Spain earlier this year. But the man and his attorneys say he has never stepped foot in Spain and insist he is innocent.
