N.H. Powerball winner's lawyers to collect $559 million jackpot

A New Hampshire woman will finally claim one of the largest lottery prizes in American history, and we’ll never know her name.

For weeks her lawyers have fought the state of New Hampshire to keep her identity a secret while she claims her $559 million prize.

The courts just ruled in her favor by allowing her to use a trust to claim the jackpot and keep her identity a secret.

Boston 25 News was told the lucky winner will also announce today which charities she plans on donating a portion of the money too.
