5. Marie's boyfriend was regularly in and out of prison

The father of one of her children, Lamarr McDow, had a two-year relationship with Marie before the win, but was constantly in and out of prison and having run-ins with the law. Also known as 'Hot Sauce,' McDow was a convicted felon and regularly drew on her money, once to post bail from his prison sentence. He was accused of being a major drug dealer, and Marie first bailed him out shortly after the win, then twice more over later arrests.
