How come Pros never get arrested in the US!?

**SirLiftALOT** · 02-04-2011, 06:55 PM

I was thinking today at work, if small time guys ordering gear from domestic sources for personal use get arrested; how come you never see an IFBB Pro in legal sheet over gear? Im sure their use is pretty high in dosages so they have to be some constant flow of gear no?

Maybe im wrong about small time guys getting busted but its just a thought.

Usually Law enforcement doesn't care about the user only the distributor unless the use is endangering others. I really dont think most small times get caught unless they are transporting their gear or acting a fool.

Theres still always a risk though.

Theres a risk to operating a motor vehicle above the speed limit, with good risk management skills it can be minimal.

i would imagine they have some "friends" that may want to get things for them.

**Bonaparte** · 02-04-2011, 07:22 PM

Because they don't order stuff themselves. They probably have good connections and get most of it locally.
And end users rarely ever get in trouble for AAS unless they get caught with it in their car or something stupid.

Maybe they are just smart?

Most probably never actually touch the gear. It is probably kept with someone else who simply injects them and takes it back so they cant be caught with it

Seriously as most have said, users of AAS are not a priority concern of law enforcment. Even if they knew that an IFBB pro (or you or me) had some AAS in his house they would never go through all the trouble ( most judges would not grant without some extenuating circumstances) of getting a home search warrant just so they could arrest someone for possesion and use of AAS. So unless the person was arrested as the result of a controlled delivery or was caught juicing in the gym parking lot or through a random search of a vehicle after some type of qualifying stop (like smoking weed or DWI) it would be unlikely they would ever be charged.

And mainly due to the financial disaster, in the form of loss of sponsors and advertising revenue that would probably insue after an arrest most are probably careful to obtain it from a close associate rather than order it and have it shipped to their residence, and also would never do something as reckless as carry it with them while commiting a crime that could lead to a search of a vehicle or their person.

In addition to all this stuff, almost evey major cities police force has a fairly large percentage of cops who lift and a fair amount of those who juice. So busting one of the heros of bodybuilding would not be a good way to endear oneself to fellow officers.

With the amount of pinning they do, there is no way that is the case.

**stack_it** · 02-04-2011, 10:29 PM

I'm sure they have a prescription for a small amount and then the rest is probably bought by there agents or trainers. Like said above most users are never messed with but theses guys prolly run enough in one cycle to be considered a distributable amount lol.

**songdog** · 02-05-2011, 10:24 AM

Very good post.

How does one justify a script for something like tren ?

**Honkey_Kong** · 02-05-2011, 11:30 AM

Well with steroids (like most drugs), the squeeky wheel gets the police's grease. Like suppose you sniff coke. If you do this quietly, keep to yourself when you're on it and not drive a car or go outside with the shit in your possession, you're less likely to get caught. But if you're loud, having screaming paranoid episodes, got traffic going in and out of your house all day and night, and you travel in possession, you're more likely to catch the police's attention just because you're making yourself stick out like a sore thumb.

I assume most of these bodybuilders aren't going to be out at all hours making big scenes everywhere they go, so why would the police have reason to bust these guys?

**warchild** · 02-05-2011, 12:06 PM

ahh craig titus, victor martinez and another guy from texas were busted

They could obviously only have scripts for compounds that are prescribed in the US...

**clemont51** · 02-05-2011, 05:25 PM

Cops in Phoenix, AZ are subject to random steroid tests. I believe there were
several expensive lawsuits l.e. excessive force.

IMO some cops should be allowed to use them. These guys need them against some of these crazy
meth head criminals.

Not the case in North Jersey. They have been nailing people left and right up here. They have 3-4 undercovers go into one gym every other week up here trying to nail distributors. It all depends on your location. Jersey is the Juice capital of North America.

**layeazy** · 02-05-2011, 06:25 PM

Its all very discrete and none of these pros are running their mouths drawing attention to their steroid use .
