Controlled delivery of steroids from Greek internet source

A Chalmette man was arrested this week after receiving 500 anabolic steroid pills and four vials of testosterone ordered from Greece over the Internet, the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff???s Office said.

Lance Coopersmith, 22, 3522 Kings Drive, was arrested at his home Monday after a joint investigation by the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff???s Office, federal authorities and a State Police drug task force, the Sheriff???s Office said in a news release.

U.S. Customs Service officials intercepted the package recently and alerted local and state authorities. Coopersmith accepted the package, which was delivered by an undercover U.S. postal inspector, authorities said.

When agents of the sheriff???s Special Investigations Division, commanded by Col. Chad Clark, arrived at Coopersmith???s residence and served a search warrant they found the package of steroid pills and testosterone had been opened and was on the kitchen counter, St. Bernard Sheriff Jack Stephens said.

The 500 pills and four vials of testosterone have a street value of $5,400, authorities said.

Coopersmith admitted ordering the drugs from Greece via the Internet. He was booked with possession with intent to distribute the steroids and testosterone, Stephens said. He was released from St. Bernard Parish Prison

^^^ At least we know where they came from. "intent to distribute"?? Who the hell would he be distributing that small amount to? Bullshit..that was personal use. They want to charge him that way because it carries stiffer penalties.

There are set quantities in the law that define being charged with intent to distribute.

 

[Saney]

If they caught me, they'd charge me with attempting to distribute to the entire world

you are ONLY supposed to use the DRUGS prescribed by Dr's and Big Pharm here in the US you know the game..nothing more than a complete waste of tax dollars for the Feds to worry about a guy and a couple vials of gear and some tabs. drugs are drugs the difference for most from being legal and illegal is all politics. if the Fed Gov was really so concerned with the "health" of the people the tobacco industry and their KNOWN carcinogens would be shut down ASAP. unfortunately for us nobody on capital hill lobbies for steroids nor do they bring in billions of dollars of revenue which means more dividends annually for shareholders of tobacco stocks.

5,400....what ever! in that case my SD has a street value of 3,000

 

[ROID]

I didn't know WP shipped from Greece.


on a serious note. This makes me a little paranoid that that much effort would be put into something so small.

no one really knows the whole story which sucks..unfortunately many young people can't keep their mouth shut about things they do. it does seem that a larger number of these busts are happening to younger guys.

LOL

and a few vials and 500 pills and he got intent to distribute?? wow

agreed.

It seems to me that the guys in there early 20s have the maturity of a 15 yr old. I mean, they act like I would have acted when i was 15. I'm only 28 now, but it just seems like that's the trend.

 

[awhites1]

5400? wow, if i could ship just 4 bottles and 500 pills a month i'ld be banking. are they basing those of prescription w/ out insurance prices?... or pull a number out my ass prices?

 

[unclem]

i kept saying greece is on the customs alert list its the country not a city. its all gone over real hard if your name dont sound like the address its going to, bango its thrown away or cd.

 

[supperfly1977]

Lol

 

[Imosted]

He is just an unlucky guy, there are probably thousands of packages passing through customs every week with bunch of juice and pills in them, and they found one guy to show off how good they are at the customs searching for 'dangerous' and illegal substances.

In turkey it is 5 dollar fine

Bro Steroids are Legal to use and sell in Turkey...there is no law against them

Lol I'll give you reps when I get on my computer.

The whole story is that customs caught it and referred it to the locals, who decided to follow through on the case by making the delivery and then executing a warrant. There is not a hint in ths story that this had anything to do with a young guy who could not keep his mouth shut.

 

[Lordsks]

There seems to be more of this happening in this area. LA. I remember awhile back there where a few other busts from the same area.

 

[AmM]

Customs, Sheriff Office, State Police Drug Task Force, there's got to be more to this. You know how much money was spent to arrest a guy for 500 pills and 4 vials. It doesn't make sense. How are they going to prove that the street value of this small amount was $5,400?

Funny guy. LOL . It makes you a little more hesistant to order over the internet. This could happen to anyone. If they decide to make a spectacle of you for a small order. They can do it. They can do what they want because it is illegal to buy AAS in a lot of countries.

NEVER sign for packages...

And if and when they decided to come anyway, and present their warrant, it will be shocking and you WILL be confused and disoriented by the whole thing (unless its happened to you before, but still possible).

You have to muster only ONE word... Lawyer... and then that's it... don't say a motherfucking word (you don't have to as much as they will grind on you and tell you you do).

so what are you saying? that if they do show up at your house and you tell them you want your lawyer then they're simply gonna walk away? and isnt it suspicious enough for somebody to automatically bring up the word "lawyer" instead of just denying it from the start?

and if they say you gotta sign for the package, then you're saying to just call it a loss and not sign when the delivery man has the package waiting right in front of you? i've heard a bunch of people saying they had to sign and did it.

the only way i could see them really nailing you with any charge is if they can prove you ordered it by obtaining the western union records or searching your house and finding the gear. how hard is it for them to obtain your WU records?

Some places require you to sign so they know you recieved your pack, to prevent people from trying to get a reship. Also Not signing is not going to save you if your name is on the pack which it should be. Not signing for mail is going to raise a red flag. When have you not signed for any mail that has come to your house. What reason would you have to not sign a package with your name on it. By not signing you are letting them know that you know something illegal is in the pack. If you sign you could always play dumb and be like what is this. Either way if it was intercepted you are more than likely doomed. Never say more than you have to which is nothing. If they want to bust you they will and there isn't much you can do.

 

[tjsulli]

some time postal service worker will ask for a signature just because they do not no any better so refusing to sign there's a good chance your basically kissing your money & your gear goodbye
