If U.S.-based anti-steroid groups admit to illegally purchasing anabolic steroids over the internet in violation of the federal Controlled Substances Act and various local laws for the purpose of laboratory testing, why aren't they prosecuted?

Along with the polling, investigators from Digital Citizens wanted to see if they could order APEDs online – and found it was all too easy. Digital Citizens attempted to buy four APEDs (three anabolic steroids and one shipment of Human Growth Hormone (HGH)) online that investigators found during a search on YouTube, one of the most popular sites in the world with teens. Digital Citizens sent two of the APEDs to Microtrace LLC, a testing facility in Elgin, IL. The lab found that the steroid was what the sellers claimed it to be – Deca Durabolin®, a potentially dangerous drug that is illegal to possess without a valid prescription from a doctor. The second package – which the seller claimed to be HGH – was a fake.
Digital Citizens was charged for two other orders, but those never arrived at their final destination.
