I read that also. Millard....you don't have any insight on this?
Millard please look into it. We contacted Rober DiMaggio owner of ironmagazine too.
When I wrote the article for steroids.info, I did not identify UncleZ by name as I had no way of verifying if he was actually detained/arrested. Keep in mind the larger sources may have 10, 20 or more people working for them. So a bust of one part of the organization may only affect it to varying degrees.
We've seen this happen with Axio. Axio was "busted" multiple times but the company kept on going. The leader of the organization evaded LE up until recently. Now, he is in South Africa fighting extradition to the U.S. and his ex-wife in the UK fighting extradition as well.
The feds recently extradited two Ukrainian men, one of whom was allegedly the leader of the Musclebear organization. But now, one of the people convicted in the case tells me the real leader got away.
So, when it comes to the big sources it is difficult to determine if the leader has been busted - especially when anonymity measures are taken.
Claims that UncleZ was never arrested are plausible. If he was captured (and especially if he were extradited to the U.S.), it seems the feds/DEA/etc would take credit. They usually do.
What seems very clear to me is that the US has made a concerted effort to go after the big international sources e.g. original British Dragon, Axio, Musclebear, Mihael Karner, etc.
According to news reports, they claim to be involved in the action in Poland too. I haven't seen any news to suggest anyone has been extradited as a result.
The leader of the UncleZ organization would be a big score for US. I suspect he would be the endgame and not a pawn to bring down customers and lesser dealers.
I try to monitor all efforts of steroid law enforcement reaching outside the U.S. borders. It seems pursuing international steroid sources has become an acceptable extension of the broader war on drugs. Anytime the U.S. tries to extradite intl sources, I will try to alert MESO members.
