The Premises Known and Described 1 UMCTED STATES DISTRICT COURT ' EASTERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF APPLICATION FOR A - against - 9 SEARCHWARRANT THE PREMISES KNOWN AND DESCRIBED (21 USC 3 841; 18 USC 6 1956) .I I, Jeff Novitzky, being first -duly swom, hereby depose and state as follows: ' 'I'I. Introduction . , , ,. 1. This affidavit is submitted in support of a request for a search warrant on the ' residence of Kirk Radomski, an.individual who is illegally.distributing anabolic steroids kd other drugs to various individuals, includi~ìgprofessional baseball players, and laundering the proceeds thereof. Radomski's residence, the location for which a search warrant is sought, is located atm 2: This request for authorization to c0nduct.a search at Radomski's residence is based upon the development of facts which provide probable cause to believe that evidence . of Radomski's involvement in the illegal distribution of controlled substances under federal law, specifically, anabolic steroids, in violation of Title 21, United States Code, Section 841, and the laundering of proceeds received from the sale of controlled substances, specifically, . anabolic steroids, in violation of TitIe 18, United States Code, Section 1956, will be found at 1 1 Radomski residence address located at ,New York, as more particularly described in Attachment A to this affidavit. 11. Affiant's Background 3. I am a special agent with IRS-Criminal Investigation (ES-CI), and have been so for the last 13 years. During my 13 years with ES-CI, I have conducted andor participated in hundreds of criminal investigations involving income tax violations, money laundering , violations, currency violations and other federal financial crimes. Additionally, I have extensive experience in investigations involving illegal drug distribution organizations, including those distributing anabolic steroids, human growth hormone, and other athletic perfonnance-enhancing drugs. I was the lead agent on the Balco Laboratories investigation and its offshoots, a high profile federal criminal investigation based in the San Francisco Bay Area, involving the illegal distribution bf anabolic steroids and other drugs to dozens of high profile professional athletes. I have participated in the execution of numerous search warrants and have written affidavits in support of search warrants on 35 different locations. I have also written affidavits for seizure warrants on at least 11 assets. 111. Controlled Substances Statutes Pertinent To This Affidavit 4. As of September 2003, the term 'lanabolic steroid'' was defined as any drug or hormonal substance, chemically and pharmacologically related to testosterone (other than estrogens, progestins, and corticosteroids) that promoted muscle growth, and included testosterone and nandrolone and their analogues. 21 U.S.C. Section 802(41)(A). In October, 2004, the definition of "anabolic steroid" was amended. 21 U.S.C. Section 802(41)(A) now reads as follows: 2 The term ’anabolic steroid’means any drug or hormonal substance, chemically and pharmacologically related to testosterone (other than estrogens, progestins, corticosteroids, and dehydroepiandrosterone), and includes-- “(i) androstanedioL- “(I)3B,17B-dihydroxy-Sa-androstane; and ‘‘@I) 3 a ,1713 -dihydroxy-5a-andros tane; ‘‘(ii) androstanedi one (5cr -androst an-3,17-dione); “(iii) androstenediol-- “0 1-androstenediol (3B,17B-dihydroxy-5ol-androst-l-ene); ‘‘(II) 1-androstenediol(3 CL,17B -dihydroxy-5a-androst- 1-me); ‘‘(a4-androstenediol (3B,17B-dihydroxy-androst-4-ene);and ‘‘(IV) 5-androstenediol (3B ,17B-dihydroxy-androst~S-ene); “(iv) androstenedione-- ‘‘O1 - androstenedione ([Sa]-androst-l-en-3 J7-dione); “(IQ 4-androstenedione (andro~t-4-en-3~17-dione);and “(m) ~~androstenedione (androst-5-en-3,17-dione); “(v) bolasterone (7aY17a-dimethyl-17B-hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one); “(vi) boldenone (17B-hydroxyandrost- lY4,-diene-3-one); “(vii) calusterone (7B,17B-dimethyl- 17b-hydroxyandrost4en-3- one); “(viii) clostebol (4-chloro-17l3-hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one); ‘‘(ix) dehydrochloromethyltestosterone (4-chloro- 17B-hydroxy-17a- methyl-androst-1,4-dien-3-one); “(XI A 1-dihydrotestosterone (a.k.a. ‘1-testosterone’) (17B-hydroxy- 5a-androst-1-en-3-one); “(xi) 4-dihydrotestosterone (17B-hydroxy-androstan-3-one); “(xii) drostanolone (17B-hydroxy-2cc-methyl-5a-androstan-3-one); ‘‘(xiii) ethylestrenol (17a-ethyl-17B-hydroxyestr-4-ene); “(xiv) fluoxymesterone (9-fluoro-‘17a-methyI-1 1B717B- dihydroxyandrost-4ien-3-one); “(xv) formebolone (Zfomyl-l7a-methyl-l1&,17B- dihydroxyandrost-lI4-dien-3-one); “(xvi) furazabol(17a-methyl-17B-hydroxyandrostano[2,3-c]- furazan); . “(xvii) 13B-ethyl-17a-hydroxygon4-en-3-one; ‘‘ (xviii) 4-h ydr ox ytes tos terone (4,17B -dih ydrox y- androst -4-en- 3- one); “(xix) 4-hydroxy-19-nortestosterone (4,17€3-dihydroxy-estr- 4-en- one); “(xx) mestanolone (17a-methyl- 17B-hydroxy-5u -androstan-3-one); “(xxi) mesterolone (la-methyl-17B-hydroxy-[5a]-androstan-3-0ne); ‘‘(xxii) methandienone (17 a -methyl- 17B-h ydrox yandrost- 1,4-dien-3- one); I. 3 .,’ ‘1 “(xxiii) methandriol’(17cr-methyl-3B,l7B-dihydroxyandtost-5-ene); ’ ’ . ‘‘(xxiv) methenolone (l-methyl-17B-hydroxy-Sa-androst-l-en-3- one); ‘ ‘(xxv) 17a-methyl-3B, 17B-dihydroxy-5cc-androstane; “(xxvi) 17a-methyl-3a,17B-dihydroxy-5a-androstane;. “(xxvii) 17c~-methyl-3B,17B-dihydroxyandrost-4-ene. ‘‘(xxviii) 17a-met h yl-4-hydroxynandrolone ( 17a-methyl-4-hydroxy- 17B-hydroxyestr-+-en-3- one.); ‘‘(xxix) methyldienolone (17 a-methyl- 17B-hydroxyestra-4,9(10)- di.en-3- one); .. “(xxx) methyltnenolone (17cl-methyl-17B-hydroxyestra-4,9-11- trien-3-one); ‘‘(xxxi.) methyltestosterone (17a-me th yl- 17B-hydroxyandrost-4-en-3 - one); “(xxxii j mibolerone (7a,17a-dimethyl-l7B-hydroxyestr-4-en-3-one); , ’ “(xxxiii) 17a-methyl- A 1-dihydrotestosterone (17B-hydroxy-1701- ’ methyl-% andros t- 1- en-3- one) (a. k.a. ‘ 17-a-meth yl-1 - testosterone3; “(xxxiv) nandrolone (17B-hydroxyestr-4-en-3-one); “(xxxv) norandros tenediol-- \ .* “(I) 19-nor-4-androstenediol(3B,,17B -dihydroxyestr-4-ene); . 1 . ‘‘(II) 1,9-nor-4-androstenediol(3a,17B- dihydroxyestr-4-ene); . ‘‘019-nor-S-androstenedio1(3B, 17B- dihydroxyestr-5-ene); ‘and “(N) 19-nor-5-androstenedol (3a,17B - dihydroxyestr-Sene); “(xxxvi) ndrandrostenedione-- “0 19-nor-4-androstenedione(estr-4-en-3,17- dione); and “(Q 19-nor-5-androstenedione (estr-5-en-3,17- dione; “(xxxvii) norbolethone (13B,17a-diethyl-17B-hydroxygon-4-en -3- . one); “(xxxviii) norclostebol (4-chloro-17B-hydroxyestr-4-en-3-one); “(xxxix) norethandrolone (17a-ethyl-17B-hydroxyestr4-en-3.-one); ‘‘(XI)normethandrolone (17a-methyl-17B-hydroxyestr-4-en-3-one); “(xli) oxadrolone (17‘a-methyl-17B-hydroxy-2-oxa-[5a]-androstan- 3-one)i ‘‘(xlii) ozymesterone (17a-methyl-4,17B-dihydroxyandrost-4-en-3-._ one); , . ‘‘(xliii) oxymetholone-(17a-methyl-2-hydroxymethylene-17B- . hydroxy-[5a]-androstan-3-one); ’ ‘‘(xliv) stanozolol ( 17~-methyl-17~-hydroxy-[5a]-androst-Z- eno[3,2-c]-pyrazole); ’ . “(xlv) stenbolone (17B~hydroxy-Z-methy1-[5~]-androst-l-en-%one); ‘‘(xlvi) testolactone (13 -hydroxy-3-oxo-13,17-secoandrbsta- 1,4-dien- 17-oic acid lactone).; , “(x~vii)testosterone (17B~~yc1roxyan~ost-4-en-3-one); 4 1’ “(xlviii) tetrahydrogestrinone (13,17a-diethyl-l7B- hydroxygon- 4,9,1l-trien-3-one); “(xlix) trenbolone (17B-hydroxyestr-4,9,1l-trien-3-one);and “(xlx) any salt, ester, or ether of a drug or substance described in t,,,, paragraph. 5. Anabolic steroids are Schedule Ill Controlled Substances. 21 U.S.C.Section 8 2(b), Schedule Ill (e); 21 C.F.R.Section 1308.13(0. Anabolic steroids are also ’ prescription drugs, in that because of their toxicity, and other potentiality for harmful effect, or the method of their use, or the collateral measures necessary to their use, they are not safe for use except under the supervision of a practitioner licensed by law to administer such drugs. 21 U.S.C.Section 353(b)(l)(A). 6. With certain exceptions authorized by law, it is unlawful for any person knowingly or intentionally to manufacture, distribute, or dispense, or possess with intent to manufacture, distribute, or dispense, a controlled substance. 21 U.S,C. Section 841(a)(l). III. Background of Kirk Radomski Investigation 7. In February of 2005, I received information from the FBI of an FBI confidential source, hereinafter “the source,” that had information of an individual in New . York distfibuting anabolic steroids and other athletic performance-enhancing drugs to ’ professional baseball players, including specifically at least one Major League Baseball (hereinafter MLB) player who was publicly identified as being associated with B alco Laboratories. Balco Laboratories is the San Francisco Bay Area based company, from which four associated individuals pled guilty to a combination of drug and steroid distribution, and money laundering charges in July of this year. 5 8. ” On February 18,2005,IRS -CI special agent Erwin Rogers and I met with the FBI source, and the source’s FBI handling agents. The source confirmed to agent Rogers and I that through personal ac$uaintances he/she had within MLB, the source had become aware of an individual in New York who was supplying anabolic steroids to professional baseball players, including at least one MLB player who was publicly identified as being connected to IRS-CI’s Balco Laboratory investigation. During the meeting, in the presence of agents including myself, the source placed a telephone call to one‘of hisher MLB contacts on a speakerphone that w& audible by all parties at the meeting. In the conversation, the source inquired whether or not the MLB contact could place an order With his New York contact in order.. for the source to start a “cycle.” I am aware through my experience in investigating cases involving anabolic steroids that a period of dosages of anabolic steroids is often referred to a “cycle.” The source’s MU3 contact confirmed that he would place the order and get back to the source. 9. 6 10. Based upon this meeting with the source, including the monitored phone call, -[ -[ a federal criminal grand jury investigation was initiated to investigate the “New York contact” who was referred to the source as a steroid dealer by the source’s MLB contact.

    PROJECT REVIEW “Characterization of the main metabolites of 17-methylstenblone and 17 methylmethenolone produced by human hepatocytes and liver fractions” Prof C. Ayotte, (INRS-Institut Armand-Frappier, Canada) New steroids openly appear on the market in products labelled with a rather confusing nomenclature. Once characterized, pharmaceutical grade products not being available, knowledge of the biotransformation pathways essential to an efficient detection of utilization by athletes is difficult to gain since administration to human volunteers should be restricted to the minimum. The alternative is a reliable in vitro model. Human hepatocytes, fresh or cryopreserved are now available commercially. We have successfully produced and identified phase I metabolites from incubations of human hepatocytes with different steroids, such as 17-methyldrostanolone and desoxymethyltestosterone (DMT). The aim of this project is to produce in vitro from human hepatocytes and liver fractions the metabolites of two steroids, the 17-methylated derivatives of stenbolone and its isomer methenolone. The principal metabolites will be synthesized and characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry. The characterization of metabolites will enable the identification of markers of utilization to be incorporated in routine testing methods. The approach for the chemical synthesis of metabolites will be shared with NMI insuring the distribution to other doping control laboratories. Improving the knowledge of steroid biotransformation is a further benefit from these studies.

Ap.901 / Cep.24020043, Brazil, Tel: 005521981584624; Email: [email protected] Abstract Background & Objectives: Drug hepatotoxicity is a major cause of liver disease. Many drugs are well known to induce liver damage. Some toxic products, like anabolic androgenic steroids, that are pharmaceutical preparations since they contain pharmaceutically active substance, are available as nutritional supplements. Many patients are used to consume these like dietary stuff. Methods: We introduce a case series of two patients who developed hepatic damage after the consumption of anabolic- androgenic steroids, accompanied by a detailed bibliographic research on this topic. Results: We present two young men who developed significant liver damage, both with hyperbilirubinemia pattern after consumption of anabolic-androgenic steroids. This was associated with considerable morbidity, although both recovered without liver transplantation. The two anabolic-androgenic steroids were being marketed as dietary supplements. Conclusions: Although not well controlled substances in Brazil, anabolic-androgenic steroids are cause of severe hepatotoxicity.

    A Sensitive and Reliable Method for Anabolic Agents in Human Urine on the Agilent 7000 Triple Quadrupole GC/MS Application Note Forensic Toxicology Authors Abstract Lorena Garrostas, Óscar J. Pozo, Rosa A screening method for the detection of selected anabolic agents in human urine was developed on the Agilent 7890 Series GC coupled to the Agilent 7000 Series Ventura, Jordi Segura, Josep Marcos Triple Quadrupole GC/MS System [1]. Applying the performance limits required by Bioanalysis Research Group the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the method was applied to the analysis of IMIM, Hospital del Mar 1367 samples collected during the doping control of the XVI PanAmerican Games. High sensitivity was sustained during the analysis of more than 80 analytical Barcelona batches, proving the outstanding ruggedness of the analytical method. Spain Introduction Miguel A. Delgadillo, Benjamín Velasco The misuse of drugs in sport is controlled by the World Anti-Doping Agency National Laboratory of Prevention and (WADA). Once a year, WADA publishes a list of prohibited substances [2], and Doping Control Mexico establishes a minimum required performance limit (MRPL) for each prohibited Comisión Nacional de Cultura Física y compound [3]. That list includes hundreds of different compounds divided into 11 different categories. In spite of all the efforts, anabolic agents persist as a category Deporte of drugs with an increasing prevalence of positive cases in sport. Detection of this Mexico City type of compound is a difficult analytical challenge owing to the large number of anabolic androgenic metabolites, both exogenous and endogenous, that might be Mexico found in urine samples.

  • Anabolic Steroids – a Problem in Popular Sports
    T + K (2002) 69 (3): 136 Anabolic steroids – a problem in popular sports Ulrich Hoffmann Institute of Pharmacology, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt University, D-17487 Greifswald, F.-Loeffler Str. 23 d e-mail : [email protected] Abstract The sportsmen self-administering androgenic-anabolic agents to improve their performance and their body shape continue to be a problem. After the opening of the East European borders a large number of compounds are offered on the black market and in fitness centres. As a consequence students and children practicing no sport use these agents. Most athletes have only a crude pharmacological knowledge regarding these drugs. Their information are derived from their own experience or experiences of other sportsmen. Therefore warnings con- cerning the efficacy and potential dangers of steroid misuse are neglected. Studies suggest that anabolic steroids are now the third most commonly offered drugs behind cannabis and amphetamines. The anabolic black market is a lucrative commercial business and its volume amounts to 70 Mill. €/year approximately. This paper will focus the attention on the common anabolic steroid misconceptions and review the adverse ef- fects and the problems connected with the use of the illicit drugs. 1. Introduction The use of performance enhancing drugs is not limited to elite athletes. Sociocultural stan- dards of beauty for males emphasize strength and muscularity. The broad-shouldered, narrow- hipped male body is idealized in Western media. Weight machines and performance enhanc- ing supplements are widely advertised in health and fitness centers [1]. The number of sportsmen in semi-professional as well as in popular sports self-administering ergogenic pharmacological agents continues to be a problem.
