Police said Philip "P.J." Braun, 30, who claims on his blog that he is best friends with Bethel resident Mark Mansa, the reputed head of the operation, was taken into custody last week after detectives from the department's Special Investigations Division and a federal drug agent went to his Pembroke Avenue condominium to serve an arrest warrant for conspiracy to possess marijuana.
The charges are part of the joint investigation by local police and the federal Drug Enforcement Agency that began five years ago, police department spokesman Capt. Thomas Wendel said.
When investigators entered Braun's home March 28, they said they saw both narcotics and substances that proved to be steroids in plain sight, according to Wendel.
Police said the narcotic was Percocet, a prescription painkiller. The steroids were testosterone, deca-durabolin, halotestin and proviron.
Braun was also charged with three counts each of possession of a controlled substance and possession of prescription legend drugs, plus possession of narcotics, according to police.[...]
All the charges indicate Braun was using the drugs, but he was not involved in selling them.
