Carl E. Macchiarulo, Anabolic Steroids Conspiracy, Virginia 2015

A Midlothian, Virginia man has been sentenced to four years in prison for his role in a large-scale anabolic steroids conspiracy.

Carl E. Macchiarulo, 44, was sentenced on April 8, 2015 to 48 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release for conspiring to distribute and possess with intent to distribute anabolic steroids. Macchiarulo was also fined $10,000.

The sentencing was announced by Dana J. Boente, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

According to court documents, Macchiarulo operated an illegal steroid distribution business known as CK Labs out of his home in Midlothian, Virginia, between December 2012 and September 2014. The business imported raw steroid powders and pills from China and other foreign countries, manufactured finished steroid products at his home, and distributed steroids to his customers through the mail.

Macchiarulo advertised his business on various internet sites known to serve as a marketplace for the distribution of anabolic steroids. During the course of the conspiracy, Macchiarulo imported at least 16 kg of raw steroid powders and thousands of steroid pills, and distributed steroid products to customers located in over 30 states, including to at least one amateur athlete.

As part of the plea agreement, Macchiarulo agreed to forfeit $163,455 in U.S. currency that was seized by law enforcement as proceeds of the conspiracy.

The case was investigated by the FBI’s Richmond Division and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Dominick S. Gerace and Erik S. Siebert prosecuted the case.
