Chad Brothers was a bodybuilder with enhanced muscle mass. His weight was 240 pounds. His unusual behavior, cardiopulmonary arrest and sudden death in October, 2011 have been widely discussed in many articles in magazines, newspapers and internet. It was claimed that this bodybuilder had come to the Gold’s Gym in Latham, Albany. The bodybuilder was too aggressive and started to attack other people that were training in the gym. When police came, there were some attempts to subdue him. Since this person refuted to subdue, a police officer had to apply a Taser, an electroshock weapon, for this need. Chad Brothers had a cardiopulmonary arrest and died.
It was determined by the post-mortem toxicology that anabolic steroids had been presented in the system of the bodybuilder. Undoubtedly, this information caused appearance of different articles which told readers that anabolic steroids had caused his death. But an essential aspect was not mentioned. Numerous authors of articles related to Chad Brothers’ death did it intentionally; others did it because they hadn’t possessed the whole information. Phencyclidine (PCP) which is known as “angel dust” was also presented.
Cecilia Logue, spokesperson for David Soares of the Albany County District Attorney’s Office and articles of the Times-Union damned anabolic steroids for death of Chad Brothers. Only such persons that had looked for additional information knew out that not only anabolic steroids were presented in Chad Brothers’ system.
The police officer Steven Heider was interviewed by FOX 23 News. He said that both steroids and PCP were identified by the post-mortem toxicology.
While anabolic steroids are a Schedule III Controlled Substances, PCP is a Schedule II Controlled Substance. PCP has anesthetic, dissociative and hallucinogenic properties. However anabolic steroids are blamed for aggressive behavior and sudden death of Chad Brothers, Phencyclidine might have contributed in his unusual behavior and death.
