Perhaps they could send him back to jail for the parole violation, but put the $50,000/year payout in the bank for when he gets out. It might make "rehabilitation" a lot easier if he had something to look forward to.

It's actually not that unusual a situation, as people in states where lotteries are/were illegal frequently buy/bought tickets "across the border" in states where they are legal. There surely is precedent - although probably not precedent that's gonna make this guy very happy.
