The Florida bodybuilder who told authorities that he supplied illegal performance-enhancing drugs to big-league athletes says he got into steroids because he wanted to emulate his hero, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
In an exclusive jailhouse interview with the Daily News, Richard "Andy" Thomas said he was too small to play high school sports, but he was inspired to bulk up with steroids by Schwarzenegger, the bodybuilding champion and action-flick star who is now the governor of California..
"I wanted to be like Arnold," Thomas said in his first public statements since authorities found $200,000 worth of steroids and other illegal drugs after they raided his Lakeland, Fla., home Tuesday night.
