New Baseball Drug Bombshell
APRIL 27--In a new steroids bombshell, a former New York Mets clubhouse employee has admitted distributing various performance-enhancing drugs to 'dozens of current and former Major League Baseball players.' Kirk Radomski, 37, pleaded guilty today to distributing anabolic steroids and laundering the proceeds of the illicit business, which operated from his New York home. According to a plea agreement filed in U.S. District Court in San Jose, California, Radomski sold ballplayers anabolic steroids, Human Growth Hormone, and amphetamines from 1995 to December 2005, when his home was raided by federal agents. In the plea agreement, a copy of which you'll find below, Radomski stated that during his prior clubhouse employment he developed 'contacts with Major League Baseball players throughout the country to whom I subsequently distributed anabolic steroids and athletic performance-enhancing drugs.' Radomski, who worked for the Mets from 1985-1995, added that he 'had personal contact with some of my baseball drug clients, but consulted and conducted drug transactions with others over the telephone and the mail.' The court filing does not identify any of Radomski's clients. (8 pages)
