Bodybuilder admits possessing drug
Tuesday, January 24, 2006
A renowned bodybuilder pleaded guilty Monday in Hackensack to possessing a tranquilizing drug often used by athletes.
Victor Martinez, a 33-year-old New Yorker known among his fans as the "Dominican Dominator," was arrested in July 2004 in Fairview, where narcotics detectives say they saw him exchanging bags and an envelope with a customer at Angelo's Restaurant on Anderson Avenue.
Based on tests made on site, Martinez was charged with possessing and distributing gamma hydroxybutyrate, or GHB, also known as a "date-rape" drug. He also was charged with the possession and distribution of a similar drug, butanediol.
Both drugs are often used by athletes to counter the effects of steroids.
The charges against Martinez, which carried up to 10 years in prison upon conviction, were later downgraded after lab tests showed that he did not possess GHB, said Assistant Bergen County Prosecutor Thomas Kearney.
At a brief hearing in Superior Court in Hackensack, Martinez pleaded guilty to third-degree possession of butanediol and will receive a sentence on March 17 that carries no jail term or probation.
"I think it was a fair resolution, considering the state would have had a difficult time proving the charges," said defense lawyer Chris Kazlau.

jesus...what's next?

Good thing Bodybuilding gets no coverage. Could you imagine all this shit on ESPN?
-
that's pathetic just based on character which hopefully means something on this board, this bozo will never be Mr. O.
-
Counter the effects of steriods?? WTF??????????? ::) At least get the fucking story straight. These dumbass reporters, who do they get their info from?
Vic is lucky. There is no room for those kind of drugs in this sport. It's bad enough all the other stuff but to add this shows no sense. Yes, I am disgusted.
-
such potential....
and now such a record....
:-\

Shawn Ray.......
What have you done to counsel Martinez?
I'm sure you've met him before.
Why haven't you tried to help the man?
DIV
-
and what did you expect from this bunch ? this doesnt surprise or shock me.
-
Now what did Shawn told DEA this time?
-
Upon arrest, Mr. Martinez explained that he was only trying to live up to the standards of a close friend, one Craig Titus.

probably the most overrated bb in the world.
he looked good at the NOC in 2003 but since has looked like shit. and no one seems to mind the oil in his biceps, but if ruhl does it, its a big d3al.
this guy is an absolute piece of shitt. he didnt learn his lesson the first time, and he should do serious jail time bc he is a fuccking idiot. this guy should be gone from the sport or at least suspended. with all the bad press bbing gets (like titus and ryan), its only a matter of time before there is a congressional hearing and john mccain shuts the IFBB down.

Be patient 240. You'll know about Lee's retirement when the rest of the world finds out about it . . . when CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, ESPN, the BBC and Al Jazeera televise a live prime time press conference with Lee Priest from the parking lot of a Kentucky Fried Chicken in Austin Texas.

"240 is Back"
Listen here b***ch. Dont start talking about Lee, because you are a sad, skinny, white boy who posts messages on internet boards all day b/c you have nothing better to do then to look at your alleged degrees taped to your wall/side of a cardboard box. Lee is going to win the Ironman, and I hope he doesnt retire anytime soon. Hes one of the best and the most popular bodybuilder in the world, and if he has an opinion we should respect it.

okay, so there's just one bad apple in the world of bodybuilding, it doesn't mean that the orchard is rotten.

Lee openly admitted to his drug use, even detailing doses and what he takes. Yet he's jumping all over Vic for doing the same thing?

Yes very true...

Me like many others simply can't use steriods without the help of something like GHB, or other similar drugs. I simply need something to slow my mind down at the end of the night..That's where GHB comes in.*

Gosh you have to be more carefull.
-

thats what the government wants you to believe...Raves killed this "drug"...Once kids got their hands on it, it was over...This "drug" has more uses then "they" want us to believe...Like someone else stated. HGH and GHB does equal the fountion of youth...Something a government surely doesn't want regular people to have their hands on...
-
yup its too bad.
-
the only reason why GHB is illegal is because big pharma donates a lot of money to congress..It was banned so it could be sold as a prescription drug, and is in sold as a script in europe...That is the only reason..

NO I AM SATAN
Lee you kick ass !! ;)

it was banned because it can be abused and lead to death. It's not the use that is dangerous, but the withdrawl. If you use it daily for months and then stop, you can have seizures. One famous case is Mike Scarcella, Mr America 1992, who died in police custody from GHB withdrawl.

wow there isnt one pro that 240 wont talk shit to. and ron made him a mod. 240 lee just fucking owned your pathetic ass. i think you and jaguarenterprises should move to an island where you can just throw your worthless posts at each other verbally instead of wasting our time here. maybe even get it on and create some worthless offspring to populate the island.
then the island should be nuked. hopefully none of your hellspawn swim to the mainland and find a computer or god save us all.

what do you expect when you are competing for 1990 prize money?
with a few exceptions (gastavo, priest etc), the show is for up-and-comers only. It is for the guys who are looking to make a name, not to make a fortune.
that being said, the prize money is pathetic..but that is a whole 'nother thread :).

Shawn likes to sit up on his perch and watch over everything and once a bodybuilder falls he likes to swoop down and cast judgement. He always does this. He should have been counseling Victor, instead of waiting for him to fall.

it wasn't banned because of death at all...This stuff was all over the place in the middle to late 90s...At that time raves were everywhere in the U.S...Kids were going to the ER every night of the week. Not because they were dying but G'ing out and the people around them panicked...Alot of kids were drinking also while doing G which is a no no...Then you had this stuff into the mainstream media thanks to that jackass that "the Dog" caputered in mexico..Forgot his name...Which cemented the name "date rape drug" that and the fact that San Diego police and border patrol having been dealing with college kids(mostly females) coming back from TJ all beat up-raped ect--thanks to the scumbag mexicans who use it to take out their pray...
Death is just what the government likes to throw at people but really their have not been many who haved died from GHB use ALONE...
