Just saw online that the winner was eight employees of the Tax Office in the Monongalia County Sheriff's Office.

I read an article that said each of the eight winners will get, after taxes, almost $12 million. Nice.
I don't know Whitaker's story. Anyone care to retell it? Just as a cautionary tale in case one of us wins a future Powerball.
