GARNETT — Lee Brock Moody, who served as a deputy under Allen County Sheriff Robbie Atkins for 20 months up through Oct. 7, 2002, pleaded guilty in District Court here April 22 to giving his teenage son steroids and selling the performance enhancing drug from his now-closed business.
His plea was to charges of aggravated endangerment of a child, manufacture of steroids and distribution of steroids, the Anderson County Review reported. Moody’s plea came as part of an agreement with Anderson County Attorney Brandon Jones, which included dismissal of about 40 other drug-related charges.
Moody will be sentenced June 10. Jones said terms of the plea agreement included a sentence of 30 days in jail and three years probation.
The criminal case against Moody dates to the fall of 2012, when Moody and his brother, Phillip Moody, were arrested after a domestic disturbance.
Police officers later said the brothers procured compounds for anabolic steroids from foreign suppliers, including those in China, and manufactured, packaged and sold finished drugs from the former jujitsu academy Brock Do Jujitsu in Garnett.
The academy closed in 2011.
Further, according to the Review, the case followed years of rumor and speculation about the school and Brock Moody, who pleaded guilty to impersonating a law enforcement officer when he was found in possession of a badge in 2006 from the Allen County Sheriff’s Department.
Phillip Moody’s next court appearance will be June 11.
