‘Big Brother 9′ Winner Adam Jasinski Begs For Release from Jail
Posted by: | Comments
‘Big Brother 9‘ winner Adam Jasinski is begging to be released from jail. He’s even ready to move back in with his parents under house arrest.
The season 9 winner, who was arrested last
month for using his $500,000 prize to sell prescription drugs, has filed court papers in Massachusetts trying all possible angles for a deal.
Jasinski, who is still awaiting trial, is so desperate to get out of the slammer that he’s willing to live with his parents, wear an electronic monitoring bracelet, regularly check in with an officer, submit to drug tests, hand over his passport and even undergo mental health and substance abuse counseling.
The documents also attempt to use Jasinski’s minor celebrity status as a defense and state the government’s claim that he flew to Massachusetts specifically to sell drugs is “illogical given Jasinski’s high public profile.”
The 31-year-old was arrested after he attempted to sell the drugs to a undercover Drug Enforcement Administration witness. He is being held without bail after a judge determined he posed a flight risk.
Even ‘Big Brother’ contestant Allison Nichols doesn’t have any sympathy for her former housemate: “I hope Adam gets the maximum time he deserves because this is terrible.”
He has been charged with possession of oxycodone with intent to distribute and could face a maximum of 20 years in jail and a $1 million fine.
