LONDON —
A man who won $10.42 million in Britain’s National Lottery was found guilty Friday of handling stolen luxury cars, and was warned by a judge that he is likely to face a prison sentence.
The offenses by Lee Ryan, 32, all occurred before his big win in March this year.
Deferring judgment for a month, during which Ryan will be free on bail, Judge Anthony Palmer told him: “I consider these crimes so serious only a custodial sentence can be justified.”
