An Iowa lottery worker is accused of manipulating the system to try and collect a $14.3million payday. Eddie Raymond Tipton, 51, of Norwalk, Iowa, was originally charged with two felony counts of fraud when he was arrested in January for illegally playing the lottery and having a friend collect his prize, but now prosecutors say he used an intricate system to make sure he would win. They argue he installed a self-destructing hack program to make sure the Random Number Generator selected his number in December 2010, and that he tampered with security cameras in the building so he would not be caught installing the program.

Now prosecutors believe the Iowa lottery worker used an intricate hack to ensure his numbers were drawn by the system . 'There is sufficient evidence for a jury to reasonably conclude from the evidence that Defendant tampered with lottery equipment,' prosecutors wrote in their filing according to Lottery Post. His trial had been due to start Monday but defense lawyers asked for it to be delayed to they could examine the new evidence. Authorities had been trying to identify the winner of the $14.3 million Hot Lotto ticket since a New York lawyer tried to claim the prize shortly before the one-year deadline in 2011. When attorney Crawford Shaw tried to claim the jackpot with the winning ticket in his hands, lottery officials confirmed the ticket was valid, but they refused to pay because Shaw wouldn't name anyone involved with the purchase and handling of the ticket. He later withdrew the claim and said he didn't know the winner's identity. Then, authorities released a convenience store video in October which purported to show the mystery winner, in an attempt to help identify him, at which point a former co-worker of Tipton's subsequently contacted authorities and tipped them off. Detectives then analyzed the ticket purchaser's voice in the video and matched a license plate in the parking lot of the convenience store to Tipton. Authorities say Tipton contacted two men in Texas asking for help to claim the jackpot anonymously. It was only after he was arrested that police began to look  into whether or not he had tampered with any equipment, at which point they claim it became clear he had used his computer skills to make certain he won. Tipton reportedly told a coworker he had created a root kit shortly before he won the lottery, a self-destructing program that can do anything and then disappear without a trace. As for why he is never seen on the security camera installing this kit, prosecutors claim the cameras were programmed to change the way they record that day, and that Tipton was one of five people that could do this. Furthermore, the four other individuals will testify they did not manipulate the security cameras. Tipton's lawyer has said all these claims are impossible, and that his client did not hack the system. Robert Clark Rhodes, who tried to claim the ticket, was arrested in March and also charged with two counts of fraud.
