What makes you think JP? Based on the timeline I can't see how Joe would be involved. It would be incredibly stupid as well since he is still facing a sentencing hearing.

Eh? Joe's handywork, as in one arising out of the information and assistance Joe is providing to the authorities.

So Joe can make people test positive?

Ok sure anything is possible. I'm just pointing out that this cyclist tested positive this year.

What do you think is done with information he provides? That the authorities read it, make jokes about some funny foreign names on there and then put it in a drawer, or start target testing people? I'll give you a hint, ask Dan Staite.

Jesus wept, it was only a speculative guess, I wish I hadn't bothered now.
