DJK’s ex-roommate pleads guilty

The ex-roommate of former Hawkeye football player Derrell Johnson-Koulianos pleaded guilty Tuesday.

Brady Cooper Johnson, 21, was charged Dec. 7 with possession of a marijuana with intent to deliver, keeping a drug house, second-offense possession of a controlled substance, and unlawful possession of prescription drugs.

Tuesday, Cooper pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana with intent to deliver.

Cooper and Johnson-Koulianos were arrested in December after a search of their home under warrant yielded more than $3,000 in cash and at least 47 other items, including cocaine, marijuana, prescription drugs, and a digital scale.

Cooper will be sentenced at 9:30 a.m. June 4.
