DEA fugitive Joshua Hodnik was arrested today during a steroid bust in Oklahoma City that uncovered “massive amounts of steroids.” Hodnik operated the underground lab that distributed anabolic steroids under the label “Universal Labs” (as seen in the photos below of Universal Labs Dianabol and Universal Labs Winstrol). He was indicted on August 15, 2007 for possession with intent to manufacture and distribute anabolic steroids but fled prosecution in Texas before trial (“Bust uncovers ‘massive amounts of steroids,’” July 9).
Oklahoma County Sheriff John Whetsel said that Hodnik was an “international drug dealer” on the Drug Enforcement Agency’s (DEA) top 5 most wanted list! Whetsel also calls Oklahoma City an “illogical place.”
“More and more, you are finding drug dealers setting up in illogical places to ward off law enforcement,†said Oklahoma County Sheriff John Whetsel. “This, hopefully, sends a message to Mr. Hodnik and other drug dealers that we will take you down.â€
Sheriff Whetsel’s bewilderment at steroid dealer Josh Hodnik’s base of operations notwithstanding, Oklahoma is apparently a hotbed of anabolic steroid distribution. Internet sales and distribution of steroids make geographical location largely irrelevant.
