In what is the talk of the town, an unemployed man that won a Powerball jackpot may be broke again as his $1.2 million Florida home is scheduled to be on the auction block May 22.
The Palm Beach Post has tried to contact David Lee Edwards to no avail.
Post reporters have only been able to ascertain that since he won $42 million in a Kentucky Powerball drawing in 2001, Edwards bought a golf course home in Palm Beach`s BallenIsles community, owned numerous sports cars and was a start-up philanthropist.
However, things weren't all rosy as he and his wife filed for divorce and both were arrested on cocaine charges last year. The cases are pending.
Other reports have the 51-year-old Edwards ceasing to pay maintenance fees on his home and the local homeowners association is trying to collect more than $8,600 in back fees.
Robert Frein, former president of the BallenIsles Community Association, says Edwards` situation is the talk of the town and that his house is probably worth about $1.5 million now.
