Actor Sam Jones III is in hot water after being fingered as a Hollywood drug connect.
Smallville actor Sam Jones III has been released on bail after pleading guilty to drug charges in U.S. federal court.Jacked from The Daily Mail
Jones, 27, posted $100,000 in property and $20,000 cash in order to gain his freedom.
He faces up to 20 years in federal prison and will be sentenced on June 22 next year
In October last year the actor was arrested by members of the Drug Enforcement Agency at his home in the Canoga Park neighbourhood of Los Angeles.
The once promising actor was taken into custody after meeting an undercover federal agent who was posing as an Oxycodone supplier.
According to court documents obtained by Mail Online, he was part of a drug gang that devised a plan to purchase and distribute more than 10,000 Oxycodone pills.
The documents state the government seized a massive amount of drugs from the gang - 586 pounds of marijuana and 10,000 fake Oxycodone tablets, which the defendants believed were real.
The DEA described Jones as the 'Hollywood connection' to the drug plot.
His guilty plea is a sad ending to what was once a promising acting career.
He played the role of Pete Ross for three seasons on Smallville, a CW series that follows the adventures of Clark Kent during the years before he becomes Superman.
Jones' character was one of Kent's best friends on the show.
But the actor is perhaps even more famous for making a sex tape with his girlfriend, former Playboy Playmate Karissa Shannon.
Jones, a native of Boston, Massachusetts, had recently landed a starring role in the Spike TV comedy series Blue Mountain State.
Before that, he had a recurring part on the medical drama ER before it was cancelled last year.

Not surprised, this silly negro was dating one of Hugh Hefners ex Becky's. They would be damn near humping each other on red carpets. Never believed that he had good judgement. Sad thing about this is the cops going after average every day people for Oxy's when doctors are illegally writing scripts in LA all the time.
that stupid white girl on E network got busted for HEROIN but her ass is free, so is paris, lindsay, charle sheen, robert downie jr, and the list goes on but for the common black man and hollywood black man, NO MERCY!
