Reasons of aggressiveness and death of a bodybuilder

Chad Brothers was a muscled bodybuilder. His bodyweight was 240 pounds. His aggressive behavior, cardiac arrest and sudden death in October, 2011 have been widely discussed in different articles in magazines, newspapers and internet. It was claimed that Chad Brothers had come to the Gold’s Gym in Latham, Albany. The bodybuilder 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 refused to subdue, a police officer had to use a Taser, an electroshock weapon, for this need. Chad Brothers suffered of a cardiac arrest and died.
It was determined by the post-mortem toxicology that anabolic steroids had been presented in the system of Chad Brothers. Nobody doubts that this factor led to appearance of different articles that told readers that anabolic steroids had led to his death. But an important factor was not noticed. Several authors of articles linked 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 damned anabolic steroids for Brothers’ death. Only such individuals that had sought additional information found out that not only anabolic steroids were presented in Brothers’ system.
The police official Steven Heider was interviewed by FOX 23 News. This official said 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. PCP has anesthetic, dissociative and hallucinogenic characteristics. However anabolic steroids are damned for aggressiveness and sudden death of Chad Brothers, Phencyclidine might have played a significant role in his aggressiveness and death.
