A former Survivor contestant who had to be medically rescued after falling into a campfire and burning his hands has been convicted of possessing child pornography.
Michael Skupin, who burned himself during the 2001 series Survivor II: The Australian Outback and who returned for Survivor: Philippines, was convicted on Friday on four of six child porn possession counts by jurors in Oakland County, near Detroit.
He faces up to four years in prison on each count and is due to be sentenced December 27.
Investigators say they discovered the child porn on Skupin's laptop while investigating an alleged Ponzi scheme he is accused of orchestrating. He faces financial fraud charges and is due in court next week in that case.
