Chad Brothers was a bodybuilder with induced muscle size. He had 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 said that this bodybuilder had come to the Gold’s Gym in Latham, Albany. Chad Brothers was very aggressive and began to attack other people who were training in the gym. When police arrived, there were some attempts to subdue him. Since the aggressive bodybuilder refused to subdue, a police officer had to use a Taser, an electroshock weapon, for this need. The bodybuilder suffered of a cardiac arrest and died.
It was identified by the post-mortem toxicology that anabolic steroids had been presented in the system of Chad Brothers. No one can doubt that this information led to appearance of different articles which told readers that anabolic steroids had caused his death. But an important aspect was not noted. Numerous authors of articles connected with Brothers’ death did it intentionally; others did it unknowingly. Phencyclidine (PCP) that 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 blamed anabolic steroids for death of this person. Only such readers who had looked for additional information could find out that not only anabolic steroids were presented in Chad Brothers’ system.
The police official Steven Heider was interviewed by FOX 23 News. This official claimed that both steroids and PCP were found by the post-mortem toxicology.
While anabolic steroids are a Schedule III Controlled Substances, PCP is a Schedule II Controlled Substance. “Angel dust” possesses anesthetic, dissociative and hallucinogenic characteristics. However anabolic steroids are damned for unusual manner and sudden death of Chad Brothers, Phencyclidine might have played a significant role in his abnormal manner and death.
