The American Dream, embodied:

The winner of last week’s $57 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot is a registered sex offender who also pleaded guilty to two breaking and entering charges in the 1980s.

Fred Topous Jr., 45, was discharged from Michigan Department of Corrections supervision in October 2006. The Kent City man traveled to Lansing on Tuesday to claim the prize from Friday’s drawing in the multistate game. Topous chose to take the prize as a $34 million lump sum payment, before taxes.

Fred Topous Jr., you officially win at life. My hat’s off to you, good sir.
