American Ninja Warrior' champ Drew Drechsel accused of kid sex violations: investigators
Drew Drechsel, 2019's "American Ninja Warrior" champion, has been accused of youngster sex wrongdoings, the U.S. Lawyer's Office of the District of New Jersey said in an official statement on Tuesday.
The 31-year-old has been accused of the production of youngster sex entertainment and temptation of a minor to go for illegal sexual lead, just as, go with the purpose to participate in unlawful sexual direct with a minor, and utilization of interstate trade to allure a minor, per the discharge.
He was captured in Florida, where he showed up in the U.S. Locale Court for the Middle District of Florida, before being moved to the District of New Jersey.
As indicated by the objection, Drechsel, at that point 26, met the supposed casualty in 2014 when they traded telephone numbers and started messaging.
In July of 2015, when the minor was approximately 15 years of age, she ventured out to Drechsel's exercise center, where the two supposedly had intercourse after Drechsel's sweetheart left the property. The supposed casualty revealed to her mom about the experience the next day, as indicated by the objection.
Per the grievance, the mother went up against Drechsel, who supposedly "didn't deny the sexual movement, but instead expressed he didn't have any acquaintance with her age at that point."

In 2016, the reports charge that Drechsel headed out to New Jersey, where he got the minor, took her to an eatery parking area and engaged in sexual relations with her once more.
The casualty claimed that they had intercourse a few additional occasions when she was between the ages of 15 and 17, and they had video talks, in which he supposedly advised her "to be naked and guided her to stroke off so he could see it," the grumbling peruses.
A few pictures and a video of the minor doing so were purportedly found on an old telephone having a place with Drechsel, per the protest.
The main photograph was taken in March 2015, when the casualty was 14 years of age, and a few others are dated later, showing she was 15 or 16 when the pictures were taken. A video, apparently a talk recorded by Drechsel, was taken in December 2015, when the casualty was only 15, per the grievance.
