IFBB and NPC Bodybuilders Sentenced to Probation in Operation Roid Runner Steroid Probe
by Millard Baker

An NPC bodybuilder and an IFBB professional bodybuilder have been sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to the delivery of anabolic steroids. Amateur bodybuilder Edward Moyzan and IFBB pro bodybuilder Brian Chamberlain were arrested after being implicated in a steroid investigation that was codenamed Operation Roid Runner.

Operation Roid Runner was launched by the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office in 2007. Several amateur bodybuilders and the owners of the underground lab (UGL) called “Pro Lab” were also among the 10 people arrested during the first phase of Operation Roid Runner. However, the second phase of Operation Roid Runner especially targeted the competitive bodybuilding community and resulted in the arrest of Chamberlain, Moyzan and NPC promoter Craig Johnson.

Five of the six people arrested during the second phase of Operation Roid Runner have been sentenced to probation. Johnson is the only one of the six who has not pleaded guilty and been sentenced. The charges against Johnson appear much less serious than anyone else arrested in Operation Roid Runner. A court hearing in May is scheduled to resolve Johnson’s case.

Of those six, only one, Craig Johnson, still has an unresolved case. Johnson, a promoter for Lehigh Valley NPC who at one time was in charge of the bodybuilding competition at SportsFest, has a hearing scheduled for May.

All five other alleged steroid sellers charged in the second phase of the operation were also placed on probation, according to Lehigh County court records.

Edward Moyzan, 38, of Nazareth pleaded guilty in December to two counts of possession with intent to deliver steroids and a conspiracy charge and was fined $1,000 and placed on two years’ probation.

The following people pleaded guilty in January to delivery charges and were fined $500 and placed on two years’ probation: Brian Chamberlain, 36, of West Chester, Chester County; Frank Peters, 34, of Ambler, Montgomery County; and Angela Girondo, 50, of Ambler.

We live in a fucked up country, where people are allowed to use test when changing their gender and are fined when trying to stay physically fit.

Pennsylvania is really tough on any kind of drugs or steroids IMO. I am surprised they didn't get jail time. It makes you sick knowing what we have endure in the US. The example above is a good one. If a female can use it because she wants to be a male then normal males should be able to use it in reasonable amounts to boost health and performance. As you know the US is not the brightest about things like this. For example Cigarrettes kill how many people a year? Is there any scientific or medical use for cigs ? DO they have any benefits? NO but they are sold everywhere. Now look at marijuanna. Med use yes, Benefits of use Yes, scientific value yes. Maybe it doesn't kill enough users to be made legal. Anyway it sure would be nice to wake up one day and see some real updates to these outdated laws. It is all about the money for the gov though. These busts help pay for a lot and the taxes on cigarretes and alcohol pay the gov to keep them happy..........

The public is totally misinformed by the media about steroids. It's absolutely exasperating to read such dribble.

I agree with all the comments above such a waste of tax money when they could actually bust the known crack dealers down the street.

Law enforcement could have taken another murderer, rapist, drug dealer (I do not consider steroids a drug when used properly), psychopath, woman beater off the street but nope. Once again they decided to protect us all against the great dangers of someone who was using and or selling AAS. Good to know.
