John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of
Connecticut, announced that BRYAN KELLY, 46, of East Haven, waived his right to
be indicted and pleaded guilty today before U.S. District Judge Victor A.
Bolden in Bridgeport to one count of possession with intent to distribute
anabolic steroids.
According to court documents and statements made in court,
in December 2017, the Statewide Narcotics Task Force West conducted a
court-authorized search of an individual’s residence in Hamden and seized
approximately 25,000 pills and 530 vials of anabolic steroids. Subsequent
analysis of the individual’s cell phone revealed numerous text messages
relating to KELLY’s purchase and redistribution of steroids. At the time of the search, KELLY was a police
officer with the Hamden Police Department.
The investigation revealed that KELLY purchased steroids
from his source of supply since approximately October 2016. He personally used some of the steroids and
distributed some to friends and colleagues.
The offense carries a maximum term of imprisonment of 10
years and a fine of up to $500,000. A
sentencing date is not scheduled.
KELLY is released on a promise to appear pending
sentencing. He has retired from the
Hamden Police Department.
This matter is being investigated by the Connecticut State
Police, Statewide Narcotics Task Force West, and the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. The case is being
prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Sarah P. Karwan with the assistance of
the State’s Attorney for the New Haven Judicial District.
