The 31-year-old, who emerged victorious during the CBS show's ninth season, was recently charged with attempting to sell 2,000 oxycodone pills.

Jasinski faces a maximum of 20 years in prison and may also be fined $1m (£601,474) for the possession charge. US District Judge Leo T. Sorokin has denied a motion to release Jasinski, E! reports.
"He is detained," court clerk Maria Simeone said. "[The judge] determined that the government had met its burden of proof based on the evidence and that the defendant posed a risk of flight."
His next court date is unknown at this time.
During his time on Big Brother, Jasinski made offensive remarks regarding people with autism, which caused a sponsor to pull its advertisements from airing during the programme.
