Mother of all PED busts

US DEA agents, leading an international operation, have arrested more than 120 people across the nation in the largest PED bust ever.

More than 50 underground labs across the country were raided. Chinese law enforcement is cooperating on going after 35 Chinese companies supplying raw materials. Substances ranged from steroids to hGH.

Seized in the raids:
11.5 million doses of steroids
Customer databases containing more than 100,000 names

Likely, the list will be covered up and held out of public view by the DEA while it negotiates with professional sports leagues (and hopefully the NCAA) on obtaining the leagues' cooperation in pursuing the investigation. Thus far, the DEA appears to want to shield any pro athletes involved in buying the stuff, claiming their focus is exclusively on taking the dealers off the street. But it's hard to believe at some point, there won't be names leaking out of this.
