Salwa Amin indicted on drug charges

SUMMERSVILLE, W.Va. — A cast member of the former “Buckwild” reality show has been named in a two-count criminal indictment handed up this week by the Nicholas County grand jury.  

Salwa Amin will be arraigned on two-count drug indictment next week in Summersville.

Salwa Amin, 24, of Charleston, was indicted on two drug charges. She was arrested in February along with two others, Shawn Booker, 42, of Detroit and Jason Jones, 31, of Summersville. They were all charged with possession with intent to distribute heroin and oxycodone and conspiracy.

Amin was originally released on bond but ended up back in jail in late March after failing a drug test. She has since been out on bond a second time.

Amin is scheduled to be arraigned on the two-count indictment Sept. 18 at 10 a.m. in Nicholas County Circuit Court in Summersville.

“Buckwild”, a show about young adults living and partying in the Charleston area, was canceled after its first season on MTV following the death of star Shane Gandee.
