TIM LAMBESIS' Defense Blames Steriod Use For The Charges Against Him

In the latest developments in the Tim Lambesis case, where he is accused of "murder-for-hire" charges against his estranged wife, Meggan Lamebsis, the court has decided to set Tim's bail at $2 million (deducting $1 million from the previous amount). His defense attorney has also blamed his steroid use for the "murder-for-hire" charges against him.

"During today's hearing (which was initially scheduled for 1:30 p.m. but was postponed to 3:00 p.m.) the singer's defense attorney, Tom Warwick, blamed Lambesis' steroid use for the alleged murder-for-hire plot. He also revealed that Lambesis is going through steroid withdrawal while in custody."

"Lambesis' family is unable to make bail, so he will remain in jail, Warwick said. The lawyer had asked for bail of $250,000."

Tim Lambesis' defense attorney, Anthony Salerno, recently told Artisan News that he suspicious of the circumstances of Lambesis' arrest and believed Meggan's family could have been involved in setting him up. "Tim's wife's brother, I understand, is a San Diego Sheriff's deputy," he said. "I think I would be remiss if I didn't fully explore that, 'cause that is a litte bit… it's at the bare minimum very coincidental, and it may be more than that."
