'Big Brother' 9 Winner Due In Court For Drug Case

BOSTON (AP) ― The winner of the reality TV show "Big Brother 9" is headed to federal court for a detention hearing on a drug charge.

Adam Jasinski, of Delray Beach, Fla., is charged with attempting to sell 2,000 oxycodone pills.

He is scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Boston Friday.

Jasinski was arrested in North Reading on Oct. 17 after he allegedly showed a government witness two plastic bags filled with oxycodone, a prescription painkiller that can cause dependance.

Jasinski won $500,000 on "Big Brother 9" in April 2008.

In an affidavit, a federal drug agent said the 31-year-old Jasinski told him he had been using his winnings on the CBS reality show to buy thousands of oxycodone pills and resell them along the East Coast.
