This is what $91,000 worth of steroids looks like according to Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office:
Using the math preferred by the self-aggrandizing Sherriff Jason Ard, this is the value of the seized steroids:
$3,000 = 22 vials of steroids (including 7 opened vials that were likely for personal use)
$3,000 = ~100 steroid capsules
$82,000 = 1 (maybe 2) ziplock bags of unspecified steroid powder
According to the sheriff's office, these were apparently the most expensive anabolic steroids ever discovered in the history of the androgen black market.
In reality, it could arguably be a personal use supply. The powder could be for a personal homebrew supply or a very small UGL operation.
Law enforcement just can't resist trying to pretend the bust is much more significant than it really is.
Pathetic move by LE.
Hopefully, the defendant has a decent attorney.

Investigators found approximately 22 bottles of steroids with a street value of about $3,000, more than 100 capsules containing various steroids with a street value of about $3,000, and about $82,000 worth of powder testosterone. They also found a loaded handgun.
Sheriff Jason Ard says, "This is one of the biggest busts we've had tied to powder-based steroids. My Narcotics Team is always on alert - making sure they know who the players are and what they're into. It helps when there's a ‘team' effort – like this joint investigation – to get the bigger players in the drug trade. At this point, this investigation is ongoing and could lead to more arrests in other states."
