In news mainstream media doesn’t want you to know… a Georgia Lottery employee was arrested back in September 2010 and charged with possession with intent to distribute several illegal drugs & narcotics.

Anywhoo… Kelly Jo McGuire, a lottery sales 
representative (pictured to your right), was arrested September 7, 2010 while performing her daily route selling and servicing the lotto’s Keno game to retail locations.
McGuire visited lottery retailers daily as part of her job description but apparently she also made special deliveries of happy pills and other illegal drugs.
According to McGuire’s arrest record, she was picked up coming out of a Canton Rd. store in Marietta and a search of her employer issued lottery van yielded a stockpile of various illegal drugs.
McGuire was arrested and charged with 6 counts of possession of controlled substances and 1 count of possessing pills outside of a container. I heard she had at least 2 kilos of cocaine.
I bet there’s a lot of angry retailers out there still waiting for their “special” delivery. All I know is… can I hit the numba?
