Woman who already won one big NC lottery jackpot wins again — and it’s much bigger
A North Carolina woman scored a jackpot in the lottery, but it wasn’t her first win.
Judy Marshburn had already won a Cash 5 jackpot of $307,726 back in 2008, lottery officials said in a news release on April 14. But this time, her prize was much bigger.
“I doubled my win this time,” Marshburn told lottery officials. “Next time I’m coming for the million.”
The Spring Hope resident bought her $10 Scorching Hot 7s scratch-off ticket at the Stop-N-Shop on East Nash Street in Spring Hope, according to lottery officials.
The lucky ticket won her the top prize of $700,000, lottery officials said.
“I looked at it and I just couldn’t believe it,” Marshburn told lottery officials. “I’m just very blessed.”
Lottery officials said she brought home $497,073 after taxes.
Spring Hope is about 37 miles northeast of Raleigh.
