Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos, former Strikeforce women’s featherweight champion, has filed to appeal the one-year suspension issued by the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC).

Santos was suspended after failing a drug test that led to the removal of her title, according to reports from Sports Illustrated.

From Mma.sbnation.com:

“Cyborg” tested positive for the banned substance stanozolol, an anabolic steroid, in the aftermath of her December 17th title defense against Hiroko Yamanaka at Strikeforce: Melendez vs. Masvidal. The 26-year-old promptly received a $2,500 fine, a one-year suspension and the win was reversed to a “no decision.”

“I would like to sincerely apologize to Strikeforce, the Zuffa organization, Hioko Yamanaka and my fans for my failed drug test,” Santos said after the ruling. “I am ultimately responsible for everything I put in my body, and at the end of the day, there is no excuse for having a prohibited substance in my system.”

Despite her expression of regret, Santos has thus far maintained her innocence, stating that the failed test resulted from “a dietary supplement that I was assured was safe and not prohibited from use in sports competition.”

“She’s at home in Curitiba, surrounded by family who supports her wholeheartedly,” the fighter’s manager explained. “She’s recalibrating and trying to put her head around the suspension.”

The Strikeforce women’s featherweight champion and considered by many as the baddest woman on the planet, Cristiane Justino Santos tested positive for anabolic steroids the day before her most devastating career win.

The featherweight champion, better known as “Cyborg,” tested positive for the anabolic steroid Stanozolol, also known as Winstrol, according to a release by the California State Athletic Commission.

The result of the fight held on the Dec. 17 Strikeforce show at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego has been overturned by the commission and ruled a no contest.

“Our primary concern is for the health and safety of fighters,” CSAC Executive Officer George Dodd said in a press release sent out on Friday.

“Anabolic agents and other banned substances put not only the users of those agents at risk, but their opponents as well. The commission simply will not tolerate their use.”

The test happened on Dec. 16, the day before she knocked out the top contender for the title, Japan’s Hiroko Yamanaka, in only 16 seconds.

For his part in a Fredericton-based anabolic steroid trafficking conspiracy, Perry Gustav Moore, 45, of Glace Bay, N.S., was sentenced to seven months of house arrest and fined $5,000.

Moore was one of twenty people who were charged in connection with Operation Jellybean, a two-year, joint-forces drug investigation focused in Fredericton.

From Dailygleaner.canadaeast.com:

The goal of Jellybean, which began in 2005, was to disrupt the sale of cocaine, marijuana, prescription drugs and anabolic steroids in New Brunswick.

Defence lawyer Howard Peters said Friday his client, who pleaded guilty, was only involved in selling anabolic steroids and was at the lower end of the scale in the conspiracy.

Peters said Moore was buying steroids for personal use and for sale in his gym in Glace Bay, N.S., and wasn’t selling in his community in general.

Crown prosecutor William Lebans painted a similar picture about Moore.

Moore was ordered to pay a $750 victim-fine surcharge in addition to the $5,000 fine.

On Wednesday, a former Norfolk police officer admitted in Circuit Court to selling steroids, syringes and marijuana to an undercover Virginia Beach investigator.

The 37-year-old Kristin Wayne Harris pleaded guilty to drug possession and the sale of an anabolic steroid.

From Hamptonroads.com:

In addition to Harris, three other Norfolk Police Department officers resigned during an internal investigation into Harris’ sale of steroids, said Officer Chris Amos, Norfolk police spokesman.

Harris was the only one of the four charged with a crime. The department would not comment further because the resignations were a personnel matter, Amos said.

Harris, an 11-year veteran of the Norfolk department, resigned a day after his June 9 arrest. He was charged with 11 drug-related felonies and two misdemeanors, but prosecutors withdrew all but two felony drug charges.

“For 17 years, he was a public servant with an unblemished record, and then he made a mistake,” Harris’ attorney, Peter G. Decker III, said after Wednesday’s court hearing.

The Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) football is once again troubled by steroids.

Olivier Renière, a running back with the Université de Montréal Carabins who was found to be using a substance on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s 2011 “prohibited list” will be banned for two years from all CIS sports.

From Cupwire.ca:

Renière’s adverse result came out of testing conducted by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) at the Carabins’ training camp Aug. 23. Renière has waived his right to an appeal.

“I admit to having consumed dietary supplements purchased on the internet from the United States in an attempt to save money, and I was well aware of the risk of contamination associated with purchases of this sort and that the Carabins medical team was opposed to players taking dietary supplements,” Renière said in a statement.

“The substance detected by the CCES did not appear on the list of ingredients indicated on these supplements. I deeply regret my decision, and I’m now paying a much higher price by being deprived of playing a sport that has been my passion for years.”

Renière tested positive for 19-norandrosterone, which contains nandrolone, an anabolic steroid.

A serious threat to world sport was posed recently after 109 footballers taking part in this summer’s Under-17 World Cup tested positive for the banned anabolic steroid clenbuterol after eating contaminated meat.

The “compelling evidence” that tainted meat was to blame meant no action was taken against any of the affected players by FIFA and the WADA but this seems like a bias as 22 year-old British sprint hurdler Callum Priestley, who is serving a two-year ban after testing positive for clenbuterol while on an official UK Athletics training camp in South Africa in 2010 was accused for failing to prove his innocence.

From Blogs.telegraph.co.uk:

His claims that he had eaten contaminated meat at the UK Athletics hotel, and that he was even treated for food poisoning at the time of his drug test, failed to carry any weight with his disciplinary panel and his punishment was confirmed.

Although his ban expires in February, Priestley, once considered one of Britain’s brightest young track prospects, is so disillusioned by his experience that he has now quit the sport.

Michele Verokken, the former head of anti-doping in Britain, is convinced he was innocent though whether he was really telling the truth we will never be known for sure because once the meat was consumed, the evidence vanished.

In interest of sports, it would be good if countries where there is a proven problem are barred from hosting any major international sporting events until they can correct things at their end.

An Ann Arbor man was arrested Sunday afternoon after police discovered illegal steroids in the vehicle he was driving.

The 26-year-old was pulled over by Michigan State Police around 4:30 p.m. Sunday on westbound I-94 near the Mt. Hope Road exit, said Trooper Derrick White of the Michigan State Police Jackson post.
