Two of the biggest lottery jackpots in Texas history are under investigation over claims that the winners may have benefitted from more than good luck.

Lawmakers and state authorities are scrutinizing the Texas Lottery after online ticketing systems may have given an unfair advantage to winners of two multimillion-dollar jackpots. Why it matters: Attorney General Ken Paxton on Wednesday opened an investigation into two "suspicious and possibly unlawful" lotto wins by third-party courier services.

AG Ken Paxton’s office joins two other investigations by state officials into the commission as one service suspends operations due to the agency’s ban.
