Three FBI special agents and one FBI intelligence analyst were recently arrested on charges that they concealed their use of performance enhancing drugs, including steroids and human growth hormones.

The four individuals were charged by U.S. prosecutors for lying on forms that are used for assessing fitness for duty by omitting that they had conditions requiring the drugs and that they had taken them.
