<div>Pedro Quezada, 47, was arrested for the sex crimes involving a girl between 11 and 14 years old, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia Valdes said, <a href="http://southpassaic.dailyvoice.com/police-fire/wayne-powerball-winner-charged-with-sexually-assaulting-girl/722039/">according to the South Passaic Daily Voice.</a></div>

<p>“At this time, it appears there are no other victims,” said Valdes in announcing the arrest.<br />
The Powerball winner, who was charged with aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault and child endangerment, was ordered held pending a detention hearing Wednesday in Central Judicial Processing Court in Paterson.<br />
After winning one of the highest-ever Powerball jackpots in 2013, Quezada took a lump-sum, post-tax payment of $152 million.<br />
Nearly $30,000 of that was used at the time to make child support payments that he had owed since 2009.</p>

<p>Quezada again made headlines when his girlfriend of 10 years, Inez Sanchez, also the mother of one of his five children, sued him for a cut of his winnings.<br />
Sanchez eventually dropped the lawsuit.<br />
Following his big win, Quezada’s Passaic landlord in Passaic, NJ at the time claimed that after Quezada won, he left town without paying the $7,250 in back rent.<br />
Neighbors also charged that Quezada reneged on a promise to pay the rent for all the neighbors on his block for more than a month.<br />
He is charged Wednesday with two counts each of aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault and child endangerment. He was ordered held pending a detention hearing in Central Judicial Processing Court in Paterson, New Jersey.</p>
