OWEN SOUND - A man and woman from Sauble Beach charged in a testosterone production and trafficking case have been sentenced in the Ontario Court of Justice.
Sarah Posthumus, 31, currently of Elmwood, pleaded guilty Thursday to possession of testosterone for the purpose of trafficking, possession of oxycodone, possession of methamphetamine, and breach of recognizance in South Bruce Peninsula March 2.
She received a 12-month suspended sentence during which she must follow probation terms, including non-association with the other person sentenced, Michael Kidd. She is not allowed to possess drug paraphernalia or drugs without a prescription, and has to undertake counselling for substance abuse as may be directed.
Her 60 days in presentence custody was enhanced by half, as is common, resulting in the court crediting her with 90 days time served.
By separate orders, she must pay $800 in victim surcharges, submit a DNA sample and follow a firearms and weapons prohibition. Items seized were forfeited to the Crown.
Federal Crown attorney Elizabeth Barefoot told Ontario Court Justice Julia Morneau Thursday that in late November 2016, a company in Hamilton imported from China two tablet-press machines.
On Jan. 4, the RCMP followed the shipment as it moved to Sauble Beach.
The machinery was met by a truck and trailer owned by Kidd in Fergus, was loaded up and driven the rest of the way to Sauble, where Posthumus lived at 102 Carson Lake Cres. with Kidd
Barefoot said the pair ran a business, Athletic Training Services, providing personal training and nutritional guidance, which had a Port Elgin post office box. Between the fall of 2013 and fall 2014, customs agents seized several packages containing a variety of steroids addressed to Kidd and his various aliases, sent to an Owen Sound business, Quality Wholesale.
On March 2 police arrested Posthumus for breach of recognizance and trafficking testosterone, a controlled substance. They found two grams of meth and a glass pipe on her.
On March 7 police with a warrant searched the pair's residence in Sauble Beach and found 88.5 pills of oxycodone and various steroids. Police also found testosterone worth tens of thousands of dollars in a storage unit in Owen Sound's industrial park.
Justice Morneau asked why Posthumus was allowed to plead to the lesser, included offence of simple possession of oxycodone, instead of possession for the purpose of trafficking with which she was charged.
Barefoot said that though police found 88.5 pills in their home, Posthumus and Kidd were addicted to oxycodone and so the pills could have been for personal use. This presented a triable issue, Barefoot said.
In all, about 42,000 pills were seized, worth $123,000.
An RCMP media release in March said when police searched the Sauble Beach residence, and a business in Owen Sound, they found "multi kilos of steroids and other substances" and "sophisticated production equipment and a prohibited firearm."
"A key supply chain that distributed large amounts steroids has been disrupted," Insp. Kevin Nicholson said.
Barefoot said Posthumus is also on release terms on allegations of murder and attempted murder in Alberta. She breached a term which forbade her from possessing non-prescribed drugs by her local drug involvement.
Defence lawyer John Raftery told Morneau the Alberta charges are a matter of ongoing legal discussions.
Posthumus told the court she has made bad decisions and has addiction issues.
"I know I messed up bad but I am obviously learning from it," she said.
Michael Kidd, 35, received 89 days jail, served intermittently, for possession of a firearm, a 20-month conditional sentence for possession of testosterone for the purpose of trafficking, importing testosterone and production of testosterone, on top of 35 days presentence custody for simple possession of oxycodone and fentanyl, Barefoot said after court. Kidd pleaded guilty to all counts, which were dated March 2 in South Bruce Peninsula.
Kidd also pleaded guilty to a breach of recognizance after that, and was sentenced to 18 days presentence custody, counted as time served, and one year of probation.
The Crown is seeking forfeiture of Kidd's truck.
His sentencing took place Oct. 5 in the Ontario Court of Justice
I believe this is the sentencing in the Mission Labs bust case.

Looks like she didn't get indicted for murder.
Especially with opiate crackdown. Anyone dabbling in dealing that stuff is taking way too much risk. I always say if I am gonna put a drug in my body it better make me bigger, stronger and faster! Not weak and turning my brain to jelly!I don't know people can take the risk of selling hard drugs. All it takes is one idiot to get busted and he tells em where he gets the shit and you're done. Roids is a little different in that we're not 'getting high' and therefore there's far less risk of catching the popos attention.
You can never know fully what happens behind the scenes. Let’s face it, these guys ain’t selling ice cream.Wow... I hope that the lab I'll order my next cycle will be more serious in their business. Their service was perfect, but this kind "behind the scene" story is pitifull. Sadly, I suppose that many of labs must be like that.
Ho Lee Fuk those are some very light sentences. Did I read that correctly?
Exactly right. Rec drugs will get you stiff sentencing. AAS are on LE radar but they don’t have the resources or appetite to really go after juice traffickers. They will shut them down but AAS guys are small potatoes and CDN LE knows it. Our CBSA have a real hardon for fentanyl right now and rightly so!YEah canada is definitely not as stiff on drug sentencing. They probably got in more trouble for the non steroid drugs and guns they had there
