David Jacobs was mum as he left the federal courthouse in Sherman.
• official site SHERMAN — David Jacobs, a personal trainer who helped the government break up the largest steroid operation in U.S. history, agreed to a plea deal Tuesday morning at a North Texas courthouse.
Some of the people said to be connected with the operation include NFL players on the Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons, and Dallas SWAT and police officers.
U.S. Attorney John L. Ratcliffe said Jacobs admitted to conspiracy to possess and distribute anabolic steroids. Court records showed Jacobs ran his steroid operation from February 2006 through April of 2007. Jacobs also admitted that he was responsible for more than 40,000 units of anabolic steroids and several thousand units of human growth hormone.
“The illegal distribution of steroids and human growth hormones poses a serious threat to our communities,” stated United States Attorney Ratcliffe. “We will continue to investigate and prosecute any individuals engaged in the distribution of these illegal and dangerous drugs.”
On the Web site for The Supplement Outlet, a store owned by Jacobs, he claims to have offered guidance to members of the Dallas Cowboys and the Atlanta Falcons. But when reporters asked Tuesday which Cowboys might be involved, the Plano man would only say, "I can't disclose those names."
Jabobs' sentence will be determined within the next three months. He faces up to five years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
The government called its investigation Operation Raw Deal, but Jacobs told News 8 he doesn't feel he's received a raw deal. He said he is ready to move on with his life.
Two of the defendants, Matthew Williams and Amber Jarrell, have already pleaded guilty to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute anabolic steroids.
Prosecutors are also seeking the forfeiture of two cars, about $25,000 in cash, computer equipment, four semiautomatic weapons, a r***e and a shotgun from the four defendants.

Man Arrested On Steroids Claims Cowboys Connection

(CBS 11 NEWS EXCLUSIVE) DALLAS A North Texas personal trainer, who claims to have offered guidance to Dallas Cowboy football players, plans to plead guilty Tuesday in connection with a federal charge involving steroids.

The personal trainer from Plano won't identify any players from the Cowboys or any other team.

The case is part of what the Department of Justice calls "Operation Raw Deal." It's the largest ever federal crackdown on steroids.

According to court records, David Jacobs is accused of conspiracy to possess anabolic steroids with the intent to distribute them from his east Plano house from October 2005 through last spring. That's when Plano police narcotics officers and an FDA investigator sized tens of thousands of units of anabolic steroids.

Officers also found pills and powder and seized semi-automatic r***es from the house. Experts said all of the raw materials used to manufacture steroids came from China.

Records show Tuesday he will go before a federal judge and admit to the crime.

"I am comfortable in saying, 'Yes. I'm pleading guilty to the manufacturing and distribution of anabolic steroids,' and I've agreed to take that plea agreement," said Jacobs.

As part of Jacobs' guilty plea, he's agreed to tell federal prosecutors in the eastern district of Texas what he knows. Prosecutors aren't commenting on the case because of the on-going investigation.

Jacobs also owns a supplement shop in North Dallas. The store has not been under investigation.

On the store's Web site, Jacobs states he "offers guidance to many top athletes across the U.S." He also states the athletes play for the Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons.

"I wouldn't be able to discuss who I've been working with in the NFL," said Jacobs.

He also wouldn't state what he did for the players. "Considering the legalities behind it, I wouldn't be comfortable," said Jacobs. "Obviously that's one of the reasons why I'm here and pleading guilty."

Jacobs said there is an issue with professional players using steroids, but would not comment further on the matter.

The Cowboys spokesperson said Jacobs has never worked for the Cowboys, that he's never heard of Jacobs and has no knowledge of the charges Jacobs faces.

The spokesperson also said the team has its own strength and conditioning coach so players can follow an organized conditioning program.

A spokesman for the Atlanta Falcons said Jacobs never worked for his team and that he never heard of him.

Two others accused in the conspiracy with Jacobs pleaded guilty last week. Matt Williams and Amber Jarrell declined to comment on their cases.

Jacobs said the arrest ruined his chances of becoming a professional body-builder. He added that he just wants to move on with his life.

Court records indicate no professional sports players have been charged in the case and the investigation is on-going.
