Urooj Khan
Urooj Khan died July 20, 2012, one day after collecting the lump sum option on a $1 million win. A medical examiner initially found that the 46-year-old Khan died of natural causes, but another official asked for a deeper investigation which revealed the lottery winner was fatally poisoned with cyanide. Khans body is expected to be exhumed as part of the investigation into his death.
