Well I live 20 minutes south of CL and he was all over the news this morning. Super sad!!!
Images of capsules match what CL has sent but then again capsules are pretty generic.
The important thing is that we learn from this.
Hopefully, the other sources on this platform will implement tighter security/safety measures.
It’s a real shame.
LEO are already here this is a public forum… additionally someone mentioned they actually completed a transaction directly with him on August 25thFrom the article:
"On August 25, 2022, KPD and USPIS served a search warrant at a Kirkland residence in the Kingsgate neighborhood. They uncovered a sophisticated illegal drug distribution operation that included large amounts of anabolic steroids, packaging, distribution lists, chemicals and other accessories to produce and ship anabolic steroids throughout the U.S."
See bold. Fear mongering isn't necessarily what I'm after here, but this is a bit concerning. Sources always claim to not keep customer info and this clearly states they recovered what I would assume amounts to customer name/address info.
Now while it is incredibly, incredibly rare for LEO to go after the users I would certainly advise anyone who ordered from CL around (or worse, after) 8/25 to be a bit careful. Not saying bury your stash or stuff it up your ass but if you have still not received a pack from CL that was ordered near his bust date and something shows up I would not touch it.
Additionally:
"The investigation began in July, when Kirkland’s Pro-Act Unit - undercover officers focused on illegal drugs, burglaries, and other property crimes – and USPIS began investigating a Kirkland resident suspected of distributing steroids through the mail. Through surveillance, investigators established a pattern with the suspect’s daily movements that uncovered additional criminal activity."
For those wondering what they did wrong to get caught, it's the same exact thing as literally every single other source bust in the history of UGL source busts: He fucked around with some other criminal activity. What it was, we do not know exactly. What we do know though is that every source, for some reason, ends up dabbling in other things (illegal firearms, petty crimes, domestic crimes, recreational drugs to name a few I have seen) and THAT is what gets them caught.
Sources that stick around are ones who just make and sell gear and live a normal happy life otherwise. The moment they begin doing dumb shit, LEO gets on them. There has never been a source bust that did not include some form of wording about the members being involved in other crimes or initially arrested for other crimes and then warrants reveal the operation.
@CaptainAmerica This may help shed light on the whole situation for those who don't wanna actually read news articles.
The most curious thing about this bust, to me, though, is that CL actually notified the mods to remove his thread. Very interesting because usually a source goes down instantly and nobody knows whatsoever and we all assume exit scams because they do not communicate with board admins. This almost concerns me, because the last thing we want is LEO ending up here.

There’s a bit of speculation there man. We have no indication that CL was involved in any other illegal activities. Not sure where that came from. “Additional criminal activity” would mean they noticed him dropping packs more than once or twice. Not that there’s additional charges. In every bust that has had other things involved, those charges are listed separately in the article.From the article:

Exactly, none of the public information stated that CL was busted, and I highly doubt they were involved with other criminal activities, but that is just my speculation. However knowing the area that was listed online, I am in complete shock that they thought it was a good idea to ship outta Kirkland/Redmond as they cities are filled with rich and I mean rich folks that are ceos and real estate typhoons, and bill gates lives in Redmond. Crazy!There’s a bit of speculation there man. We have no indication that CL was involved in any other illegal activities.

Additionally, “distribution lists” is also a vague term. It could mean there was a stack of labels of packs going out that day. It doesn’t mean there was an excel spreadsheet of every address Colonial ever sent to.
And let’s be clear as well, the misstep here was the shipper. It was the person dropping packs that was observed and served a warrant. Whether or not the actual “Colonial” was involved is unknown. There were no names, just a suspect count.
We can only discern so much from the reporting. Unless other things come out, I don’t want to be jumping to any additional conclusions.
Rich people have well equipped police, however LE leaves people alone as long as you mind your own business, look clean like you belong among the affluent.E

You don't drop off packs in a place where there are people, that means after hours and no cameras.As I said before and I believe it's the case for all users here, every order I made from him shipped from Redmond. So it's actually simpler to think he or whoever he trusted for shipping dropped the ball there. I mean if you see the same person almost everyday dispatching little packages, that alone draws attention.
And many of you are being too innocent, "probable cause" my ass, I can throw some water in a package and say "oops, It's leaking so we have to open it".
So don't overthink it, could have been bad luck from one package actually leaking, but the biggest mistake is dispatching always from the same place
