Oh look, Sector is now a QSC customer.

How quickly things change.
Qsc was awful, as was Meso.
Now that he's rejoined with gusto, even Tracy's hgh is amazeballs.
You don't say.
Renegade d'excellence.

Sector was a legend that will never be replaced, may his soul RIP

But I am honored that a narc like yourself would hold me in such high regard. You really know how to warm my icey heart, iris

The federal government, and every state has publically accessible data containing court records. I search them, I read the cases.

Anyone claiming to "know something" needs to show evidence of these prosecutions and imprisonments.

4 million steroid users in the US, surely there should be at least a few hundred cases of users getting busted a year, right?

The idea that somehow, there are raids,, arrests, and prosecutions of AAS users that the publicity hungry authorities keep entirely out of the press, and more importantly, don't appear in court records, tells me they're full of shit. ESPECIALLY in light of how we see, after multi year, multi agency, MAJOR investigations they treat the "Top of the food chain", producers, distributors, with millions of dollars flowing through their operations, and the top guys get a couple of years and those below getting probation.

But yea, they're going to hunt you down over half a dozen vials of tren, and throw you in prison. Clearly that's a big priority.

All this BS about regular, non dealing, non criminal users being some kind of LE target is the "feels" equivalent of paranoia.

The only reason this cop got "prosecuted" (a slap on the wrist really) , is BECAUSE HE'S A COP, and there was evidence of dark web suppliers sending "other" things to him. Had he not been a cop, had there not been suspicion something more serious than AAS were being sent his way, nothing would've come of it. Notice it was handed off to his bosses. and not the feds who discovered it.

FFS, they have the names and addresses and evidence in hand of thousands of people getting raws every year, clear evidence of manufacturing, and they do nothing but send a letter telling them not to do it again, and making a little note in their system about it for future reference.

Do you think that's what they do when finding "raws" for drugs other than steroids? Hell no. ICE, DEA, or local LE would be at your door,

I did some random web searches, using google scholar +case law + arizona (as an example state): 2010-2024, all links return appeal cases ONLY, so this is where someone has appealed a case.
a) "possession of dangerous drugs" - 519 results - those are all drug charges, STATE vs XXX (no duplicates)
b) "possession of dangerous drugs" + cocaine = 45
c) "possession of dangerous drugs" + steroids = 0
d) "possession of dangerous drugs" + testosterone = 0

now, if anyone here has time on their hands, court cases are public domain. the problem is that not every state has an easy way to access them. but certainly there have be to cases where possession and steroids pop up. with AI popping up, there might be solid LLM's around containing the data we need. again I am not claiming risk is absolute zero for buying that stuff, but it probably is comfortable enough for most gym or even TRT bros.

There's was a bust about two hours from where I live I'll try to find it. Other drugs were involved too but I remember that they found a bunch of steroids.

 

[TurboJet]

Here y'all go, highlighted the steroid parts. Couldn't find the other article where they suspended a dozen from the same area/departments for steroid use

Better pic of the bust picture, I think the gear is to the far left on the table.

You do have to account for what is actually appealed . . .

A personal possession arrest for steroids, a plea deal with no incarceration, probation, and a first offender discharge, meaning this will not show up on his record if he successfully completes probation, this case does not get appealed. There is nothing to appeal.

The lack of an appeal does not mean that there were no arrests in Arizona during that time period, just as there were surely more cocaine arrests that 45 in the entire state of Arizona for that decade and a half time period.

There have been plenty of lab busts in Arizona. No appeals of those turned up in your search of appellate cases.

LOL

I was wondering if there was ever going to be an update.

Can you share the Cliff Notes so I have some idea until I can get a half hour to listen?

Listening to it now. Will update later with a synopsis.

While driving through Houston, Josh was caught speeding—100 mph in an 80 mph zone—and was pulled over by a Texas state trooper. Josh had gear in his car for bodybuilding prep purposes, and the encounter quickly escalated. The trooper complimented Josh’s physique and asked if he was “natural,” to which Josh admitted he wasn’t. When asked if he had steroids in the car, Josh foolishly said yes.

To make matters worse, the trooper smelled marijuana on Josh, giving him probable cause to search the vehicle. Josh admitted to having 20 grams of marijuana in the car, which is illegal in Texas. During a 10-minute search, the troopers found both the marijuana—a misdemeanor—and a small amount of steroids, including under 1 ml of testosterone. After researching the substances on the spot, the lead trooper charged Josh with:
1. Possession of marijuana (misdemeanor),
2. Possession of a prescription drug without a prescription (testosterone),
3. Possession of anabolic steroids (a felony punishable by up to two years in Texas state prison).

Despite the second trooper showing leniency, the lead trooper pursued the charges aggressively. Josh’s friend Loki, who was with him, was also arrested.

As a foreign national, Josh’s situation was complicated further. His bail was initially set at $25,000 instead of the standard $5,000 due to being deemed a flight risk. The bail payment was delayed for hours due to processing issues with a wire transfer from the UK, keeping Josh in jail longer.

Reflecting on the ordeal, Josh recognized his mistakes: speeding on a Texas interstate, admitting to possessing illegal substances, and failing to remain silent. He is still awaiting a court date but has retained a good lawyer to fight the charges.

Moral of the story: Don’t speed in Texas with marijuana or steroids in your car—and always know when to keep quiet.

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, Josh isn’t the brightest bulb in the shed.

Was he that high,

Josh foolishly said yes.

Mind you, once they could smell weed, would they have searched the car, anyway?

He was not charged with dui, though.
So, not high, just stupid.
Or panicking does weird stuff to your brain.
Something...

The cop paying compliments is well funny, lol

If you listen to him talk about it, he just wasn’t thinking it seems, got caught up in the moment. Very unfortunate situation for him all around.
