LOS ANGELES (AFP) - A California man trafficked 5.8 million dollars in counterfeit pills made to look like the sexual enhancing drug Viagra, a court heard. ADVERTISEMENT click here
Frank Fu Jen Huang, 59, was sentenced in Los Angeles to a potent 2,500 hours of community service after he pleaded guilty earlier this year to charges of conspiracy, trafficking and making fake drugs.
Prosecutors said Huang and a co-defendant, David Srulevitch, began making fake Viagra in 2002 after it became too difficult to get counterfeit Viagra made in China past US Customs.
After their shipments from China were intercepted by customs officers, the pair made about 700,000 counterfeit tablets of the anti-impotence drug in a California laboratory where Srulevitch worked.
Srulevitch pleaded guilty in September to selling a counterfeit drug and received a suspended sentence of five years probation.

Srulevitch pleaded guilty in September to selling a counterfeit drug and received a suspended sentence of five years probation. Gee whiz, that will really get his attention, won't it?

Viagra jokes?
Sure.
Did you know that he US military recently killed Osama Bin Laden?
It's true!
Special Forces had located the valley he was hiding in, and waited for him to switch location.
As Osama crawled through the rocks, the Good Guys called in some crop-dusters loaded with Viagra, who dusted the valley with it.
When the pr&ck stood up, our Sniper shot him.
