35-year-old convicted NFL steroids dealer David Jacobs and his 30-year-old girlfriend, Amanda Jo Earhart-Savell, were found dead in in his home in Plano, TX on Thursday morning. Both had been shot.

Jacobs was convicted on federal steroid distribution charges last year, and was sentenced to three years probation and fined $25,000 on May 1st after pleading guilty.

Jacobs claimed he dealt primarily with two NFL players, identifying one of them as offensive lineman Matt Lehr. The two would then distribute the drugs among other players. Lehr has denied the allegations.

He recently met with NFL officials and gave them documented evidence of players who had received the drugs. The officials were examining the evidence to determine whether to seek discipline against those players.

“We offer our sympathy to the families of David Jacobs and Amanda Jo Earhart-Savell,” the N.F.L. said in a statement. “As we have previously confirmed, our security representatives interviewed David Jacobs on two occasions. We are reviewing the information to determine if there is documented evidence establishing any violations of our program and will follow up on any other information that is provided. It is premature to comment on any specific player at this time. Anyone found to have violated our policies will be subject to discipline, including suspension. We will continue to be responsive to any needs of law enforcement on this matter.”

Jacobs was nervous about the information he had and the people it implicated. “The kinds of people I know about could put a bullet in the back of my head.”

Since the meeting Jacobs said he had been rebuilding his life in Dallas.

Amanda was a competitive bodybuilder and fitness model. (Photos below)
