A housekeeper discovered her body on Monday when she went to clean the room after Hill’s scheduled checkout.

The manner and cause of death was not immediately made public pending further investigations.

Shallotte Police said on Facebook that the Brunswick County Sheriff’s Office and the North Carolina State Research Bureau helped in the arrest of Hill, who remained in prison without bonds.

In 2017, Hill won a $10 million lottery prize after purchasing an Ultimate Millions scratch-off ticket at a store on Maco Road, Maco Depot, where a clerk said Hill was a regular customer who gave her $2,000 as a thank you.
