"Starting New England Patriots offensive lineman Nicholas Kaczur was arrested in April on a charge of illegal possession of prescription painkillers and then secretly cooperated with the federal Drug Enforcement Administration in a sting operation that resulted in the indictment of his alleged drug supplier, according to a lawyer and two people briefed on the investigation.

Kaczur - a 28-year-old, 315-pound offensive tackle - wore a hidden recording device during three different drug transactions in May at gas stations in Foxborough and North Attleborough and a supermarket parking lot in Sharon, according to the lawyer, the two people, and federal court documents. At each of the three transactions, Kaczur paid $3,900 in cash to buy 100 OxyContin pills, a potent prescription pain reliever.
Federal agents arrested the alleged dealer, Daniel Ekasala, moments after the third transaction with Kaczur, said Ekasala's lawyer. He was indicted by a federal grand jury yesterday on three counts of possession of oxycodone (the main ingredient in the prescription drug OxyContin) with intent to distribute. He is due to be arraigned today in federal court." Boston.com
Well this isn't really a huge story for me other than I can lay a couple of cheap shots to the Patriots. I think though it must be really painful to be an offensive lineman, I think when they sign their contract they should be given a lifetime prescription of oxycotin. It will be interesting to see what the league does about this, even though he helped with the bust he should still get a 4 game suspension , right? The NFL did it all wrong when it came to the spygate thing, they just should have hired Kaczur to be a double agent.
