Wow. That's all I have to say is.......... wow. Initially, I liked Adam -- I am a live feed watcher --but then I read some articles about his history and the agency he worked for and it seemed VERY shady.

I wanted Ryan to win that season. I felt he did WAY more than Adam to deserve the win. Ryan was a college student and seemed like an honest guy, who would have used the money wisely.

This is a HUGE disappointment, but not surprising based on the articles I had read about his background and shady business dealings.

Sounds like he was caught with a LARGE amount of illegally obtained drugs and is looking at a substantial prison sentence.

Interesting that he was appointed a public defender.. I guess he really did blow through that money.. What a shame.

this article has a picture of him

he is most notable in my mind in that he picked his nose incessantly...now it makes me wonder if it was perhaps more of a cocaine habit reflex :w00t:

You would think a college man would be able to think of creative ways to use 500K seed funds to do business honestly and legally. He must have just wanted to be a drug dealer. What a fool!

I don't remember this guy at all and I have watched BB since it's genesis.
Was it the BB series during the winter when the writers were on strike and they just gathered a bunch of house guests together to fill air time??
That was the season that kinda sucked.

Yes, he was on the winter season. Be glad you don't remember him....it means you didn't lose hours of your life that you'll never get back watching the worst (IMO) season of the series!!

Yeah, I agree. I remember him discussing Oxycontin during the season.. said he used to use it regularly.

It is very unfortunate that he used that money in this manner. It makes that season even more of a waste than it already was... I did like Ryan though - makes me sick he didn't win it. Wonder what Big-She (Sheila) has to say about all this...?

:thumbdown:

I remember him as making the oddest facial expressions. He'd make his eyes all big and bulgey. He was just a very odd person and very insulting to Shiela, his partner. I'm not to surprised at this. the type of person to go on one of these shows has, in my opinion, a problem where they are starved for attention.

he was the one that picked his nose all the time, right?

The season he was on was by far the worst season.

It had that horrible Natalie (worse than this years natalie even) and simulated orgies and not so simulated orgies.

Big Brother 9 houseguest Adam Jasinski has apparently been fired from his job for comments he made in the house about autistic children. One advertiser has pulled its ads and another group asked for Adam’s termination and the cancellation of the show following his casual use of the term “retards” to refer to the kids he works with.

Adam Jasinski, the winner of Big Brother 9, had plastic surgery recently on his face to correct damage done after a car accident.

“I went through a windshield, and a chunk of glass in my face started to bubble the skin. … You only have one face. You need to take care of it, no matter what,” he told The Palm Beach Post. Adam may be best known for getting fired from his job and leading an advertiser to stop advertising after he made an offensive comment about kids with autism.
