Scratch card Millionaire is murdered by husband

The 31-year old Tiffani H. became a millionaire through a scratch card. A short while later she got married. The young mother is now dead. Murdered by her own husband. What lies behind the shocking criminal act from the US-Federal State Oklahoma?

The marital bliss lasted only a short while: A few months ago the American Tiffani H. married her partner shortly before she had won a million through a scratch card. It is being assumed that her husband killed the woman and their child, to be able to acquire the assets of the scratch card winner. But that does not have to be the real reason. In February we reported the “Lottery addiction, in which a man spent up to a Million US Dollars per week for lottery tickets.”

Murdered Woman won 2 Million US-Dollars

Last November the lottery company “California Lotter” issued a press statement saying that Tiffani H. had won 2 Million US-Dollars after buying a scratch card. As the local media reports, the happy winner married her partner shortly afterwards. Besides this, the couple already had a two-year-old daughter called Leanne. It seemed, that the family happiness was complete. The scratch card was an Instant Prize Crossword Scratcher (Price per ticket: 20 US-Dollar).

However it seems that there had been arguments between the married couple already for a long time. The sudden prize worth millions lead to further conflicts in the relationship. These conflicts finally climaxed into a terrible bloody deed.

Husband kills own wife and child

After a family dispute, the husband of the scratch-card winner, John D., shot his wife and afterwards his own child. The deed happened on the 30th. July 2021. However the perpetrator seemed to have no interest in the winnings of his partner which were worth millions. After he had destroyed the domestic happiness, he turned the weapon on himself and committed suicide.

The lawyer representing Tiffani H. pointed out that the winnings, worth millions, had not only brought happiness to the family. As already mentioned there were also many disputes concerning this matter. Moreover Tiffani H. had informed her relatives and friends that she intended to separate from her partner. For this reason John D. became aggressive against her again and he shot the young woman.

No money for the burial

Especially shocking in this case is the fact that the successors are collecting money for the burial through a donation campaign, through which around 4,000 US-Dollars have been collected up to now. The donation goal has been set to 20,000 US-Dollar. According to their own statements the family does not have access to the remaining money from the lottery winnings. Besides this, a large part of the money has already been spent, that is it has disappeared. The murdered lottery winner is survived by another three children.

Conclusion

Money alone does not make you happy. This statement is not an accurate saying without a reason. The case from the US Federal State of Oklahoma shows that even a prize worth millions is no guarantee for happiness in life. In spite of winning a prize worth two Million US-Dollars the family did not manage to find their personal happiness. Instead three family members are now dead.
