The news is out: [The owner of a Texas sports supplement company pleaded guilty to selling unapproved new drugs throughout the US and intentionally misleading the FDA and consumers, according to a release from the Department of Justice on Tuesday.
Officials said Brett David Becker, 32, and his company, Accelerated Genetix, LLC, sold Selective Androgen Receptor Modules (SARMs) such as Ostarine and Ligandrol to consumers through retail outlets and on the internet, specifically in the Western District of Virginia where the case was litigated. In connection with his guilty plea, Becker also agreed to forfeit about $3.5 million, the approximate amount of money Accelerated Genetix earned from its sales of the drugs.]
Who is getting the money? One way or another, someone is benefiting from the illegal activity.
