PCP was also found in Chad Brothers’ system after his death

Chad Brothers was a bodybuilder with enhanced muscle size. He had 240 pounds. His aggressive manner, cardiopulmonary arrest and sudden death in October, 2011 have been widely discussed in numerous articles in magazines, newspapers and internet. It was said that this person had come to the Gold’s Gym in Latham, Albany. Chad Brothers was extremely aggressive and began to attack other people that were training in the gym. When police came, there were numerous attempts to subdue him. Since Chad Brothers refuted to subdue, a police officer had to apply a Taser, an electroshock weapon, for this need. The bodybuilder experienced a cardiopulmonary arrest and died.
It was found out by the post-mortem toxicology that anabolic steroids had been presented in the system of the bodybuilder. No one can doubt that this aspect caused appearance of different articles which told readers that anabolic steroids had led to his death. But an important factor was not mentioned. Many authors of articles connected with Chad Brothers’ death did it intentionally; others did it because they hadn’t known about it. Phencyclidine (PCP) which is called “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 this bodybuilder. Only such individuals that had looked for additional information found 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 confirmed 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. Phencyclidine has anesthetic, dissociative and hallucinogenic characteristics. However anabolic steroids are cursed for abnormal manner and sudden death of Chad Brothers, Phencyclidine might have contributed in his unusual behavior and death.
