A reality TV star was arrested in Massachusetts over the weekend.
Adam Jasinski, who won CBS' "Big Brother" last year, was charged with dealing oxycodone in North Reading Saturday.
According to the Boston Herald, Jasinski allegedly told a DEA agent that he used the $500,000 he won on the show to bankroll a drug-dealing operation on the East Coast.
Federal prosecutors say Jasinski spoke to an undercover agent from his home in Delray Beach, Florida and agreed to fly to Boston to sell the agent 2,000 oxycodone pills.
Once Jasinski arrived at Logan Airport, the agent drove him to a strip mall in North Reading where the deal was allegedly made and he was arrested by federal agents.
If convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine.

...BRILLIANT!
>>A reality TV star who connived his way through a house of hidden cameras to win the $500,000 grand prize last year on CBS’ “Big Brother” has been busted at a North Reading strip mall for dealing oxycodone - done in by a government witness secretly recording their rendezvous.
Karma...? Hidden cameras...secret recording...
I had to go look him up. Goes to show how insignificant these shows become.
I think the reality of “reality” shows is finally making its debut.
This is the kind of idiot that does reality TV, like the balloon family in Colorado.
unbelievable.
Gee, when I think how it would help the family finances to have won $500 grand, and what I could do, it’s hard to believe somebody takes the money and gets into a high stakes drug deal.
I believe everything I hear in court.
