No one of Myogenix was sentenced to prison

Dietary supplements companies often label anabolic steroids as dietary supplements. So, they sell these illicit products. They bamboozle the Drug Enforcement Administration and clients that acquire such remedies. As a result, some sportspersons test positive for forbidden substances while they are sure that they have never applied any steroid or another prohibited medicine. Dietary supplements companies must be punished for such situations.
For example, Myogenix is a dietary supplement company that is located in California. This company admitted that they sold a synthetic steroid which was marketed as a nutrition supplement. It was called Spawn. Its ingredient were following: 19-Norandrosta-4,9 diene-3,17 dione and 2a,3a-epithio-17a-methyletioallocholanol. So, the supplement Spawn consisted of 2 steroids but it was marketed as a dietary supplement.
Myogenix admitted that they had sold Spawn since 2007 till 2009. The company was enforced to pay a $500.000 fine. Moreover, Myogenix forfeited $100.000 immediately.
According to the decision of the judge, preparations manufactured and sold by this company will be tested for five years by an independent organization. All new nutrition supplements should be checked carefully and approved by the FDA before Myogenix may sell them.
Actually, Myogenix should thank the defense attorney Rick Collins that has defended the company. He defended the owners and other stuff of the company efficaciously. Nobody went to prison. This defense attorney was hired to defend also other companies that were related to the site Bodybuilding.com. These companies also were sentenced only to fines and money seizures.
