In the early 2000s, a Washington County deputy sheriff was involved in an incident where he attempted to smuggle anabolic steroids out of Tijuana, Mexico. The deputy was arrested at the border by U.S. Customs agents and faced potential federal charges carrying up to five years in prison. However, the U.S. Attorney’s Office decided not to prosecute, understanding that the Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Council would take action. The deputy received a four-year suspension from POST.
