Ex-skating champ charged for drugs

JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Former figure skating champion Nicole Bobek has been charged with being part of a northern New Jersey drug ring.

The 31-year-old Bobek made her first court appearance Monday by video from the Hudson County Jail. Bobek, who has homes in New York and Jupiter, Fla., was arrested in Florida last week. She is charged with conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine in Hudson County.

Bobek pleaded not guilty and was held on $200,000 bail and faces up to 10 years in prison if she's convicted.
