A city woman has been accused of taking and distributing sexually explicit photographs of her 9-year-old daughter, according to the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office.
Crystal Quiroz, 29-year-old, was arrested on May 3, 2017, authorities said on Wednesday evening.
Quiroz has been charged with first-degree endangering the welfare of a child, second-degree endangering the welfare of a child, and third-degree endangering the welfare of a child, authorities said.
She is charged with five counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Authorities said she distributed the photographs over the internet.
She faces a lengthy prison term if found guilty of the charges.
A Passaic County judge has granted the state’s request of pre-trial detention. She will remain in state custody until trial or disposition of the case, authorities said.
