In 2001, 43 people were indicted for claiming to be "legitimate winners" in the McDonald's Monopoly game and were accused of committing mail fraud. The defendants argued that the indictment failed to prove an essential element of the crime of conspiracy. The trial lasted three weeks, and the government was unable to provide sufficient evidence of a larger overall conspiracy. Multiple issues of proof, prosecution, and evidence arose throughout the trial.
