No.  He was busted for distributing steriods.  Got convicted on 8 felony counts.  He did 1 year in Maricopa County Jail (Phoenix) in the "tent city".  Then he had to do another 1 year in Ohio (not sure).  Anyway, it totally took the drive out of him and he is content to just train and run his gym.  He said he was returning the stuff to somebody but c'mon....sounds like he was dealing a bit. :(

In Columbus?  ;D

Sounds like he was dealing gear.  Not a crime in my book and something I would say almost every single pro has done at one point.

Doesn't he own a website?

He has no website I am aware of right now.  There is a pretty interesting interview with him at MD.

Remember when he beat Titus at the USA, and Craig imploded. For that alone the guy is OK in my books!
