A 24-year-old Portland man has pleaded guilty to importing steroids from Thailand.
KHOU
Nathaniel J. Ashby, a criminal justice college student, pleaded guilty Monday to conspiring to import the drug. If convicted, he could spend up to five years in prison.
But Gerald Needham, Ashby's attorney, said he should be eligible for probation under federal sentencing guidelines. Ashby is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 2.
He is accused of importing up to 500,000 tablets of Methandrostenolone in what authorities are calling an "extensive drug distribution" operation. According to court records, Ashby traveled to Thailand to buy the drugs and ran a Web site on which he arranged the sale of the drugs.
Needham said Ashby had no prior criminal history and "has done everything in his power to make amends."
