'Brother' winner arrested on drug charge
BOSTON, Oct. 21 (UPI) -- "Big Brother'' winner Adam Jasinski has been arrested on an oxycodone distribution charge, investigators in Massachusetts said.
The Boston Globe reported the Florida resident was arrested at a North Reading strip mall last Saturday.
Jasinski, 31, allegedly made a deal to sell 2,000 oxycodone pills to a cooperating government witness.
An affidavit filed Monday in federal court by a Drug Enforcement Administration agent said Jasinski and the person he believed to be a buyer were approached by agents as they pulled into the strip mall.
"Jasinski stated that for the past several months he had been obtaining thousands of pills of oxycodone and reselling them to customers all along the East Coast," the Globe quoted the affidavit as saying. "Jasinski was able to purchase large quantities of pills because he had received $500,000 as the grand prize winner of the CBS reality television show 'Big Brother Season 9.'"

"I just want to tell you, I'm very proud of you," Mazo told her. "You did a great job. Don't worry; this isn't the end of it. You're going to be awesome."
Aaron Carter, Mark Dacascos, Melissa Joan Hart, Michael Irvin, Joanna Krupa, Mya, Kelly Osbourne, Donny Osmond and Louie Vito -- along with their professional dance partners -- are still in the running for the show's coveted mirrorball trophy.
Sarah Palin to appear on 'Oprah'
CHICAGO, Oct. 21 (UPI) -- Former U.S. vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has been booked as a guest on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
The New York Post said the former Republican Alaskan governor is expected to appear on the Nov. 16 edition of the program to promote her new book, "Going Rogue: An American Life."
Winfrey said last year she wouldn't interview Palin on her chat show until after the election because she didn't want to discuss politics on the program after publicly endorsing Barack Obama.
Obama hadn't appeared on the show since 2007.
