Although it is not yet manifested scientifically whether “roid rage” is an unwanted result of steroids, these medications are blamed for different crimes quite often.
Michael Barton, a person from Britain, hit a Ford Fiesta, while he was driving his Volkswagen Golf. Paul Gard was a motorist of Ford Fiesta. Barton had passed Paul Gard. But then he had to pull back in front of Paul Gard, since another vehicle was driving the other way. Paul Gard flashed him. So, he had to brake immediately. Barton became furious, stopped his car, broke the wing mirror of Paul Gard’s Ford Fiesta and hit Gard in the face. Then Gard’s wife took her mobile and informed police. While she was calling, Barton left calmly.
Michael Barton, a 21-year-old man who has a kid of two years old, applies steroids for bulking effects. So, it has been confirmed that these preparations affected his behavior. The defense attorney for Michael Barton claimed that steroids had a negative impact on temperament of his client, since these medicines enhanced his levels of testosterone.
Earlier Michael Barton was convicted for certain crimes, including domestic violence. Last year he pleaded guilty to an assault, criminal damage and driving carelessly because of his anger following assaults.
Patrick Hooton, the judge, claimed that he was not sure that steroids were responsible for his improper behavior. But he noticed that it was entirely mad to become raging and hit a man in the face only because he flashed him. The judge noticed that Barton’s behavior was very immoral and he said: “you ought to go to prison”.
So, Michael Barton was sentenced to 6-month jail sentence suspended for a year; he was also enforced to pay 500 dollars in compensation and ?277 for damage of Paul Gard’s Ford Fiesta.
