I'll say it again, it isn't going to stick. Several news services are already saying that European agencies are not cooperating with the investigation; witness are recanting their stories; witness that many said would change their stories aren't. I feel sorry for Landis, LeMond and the Andreu's; the only ones to benefit from this will be the lawyers. At least Greg got a settlement; Floyd won't collect a dime and by many considered a pariah; and Frankie and his wife are probably blackballed for life. I don't call that justice, do you? Oh, and what's more, we the American tax payers, get to pick up the tab. What a waste!!!

Story about European investigation.
This piece is nothing but conjecture by a lawyer, something we're quite good at I can say. This also solely concerns Spain and Britain. It also says what we all already knew, that states are not obliged to help another states, but can be requested to do so, at which point the domestic authorities look into the case. This really is nothing new and has been known since the start of the investigation. If you did not know this, nor ever thought about it, you really are beyond help concerning legal proceedingsmiloman said:http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-...gation-may-stutter-in-europe-lawyers-say.html

miloman said:I think you may have happend upon the wrong thread, this isn't a discussion on furniture refinishing, but it certainly looks like you have an occasion to be angry. If someone scratched my wood like that, I would be ticked too. I'm not a liar, I just posted the story, you can decide for yourself who the liar is. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, unfortunately, yours wasn't!

Or as Race Radio said, so much shorter
Also still nothing about witnesses recanting their stories
miloman said:A lie I invented with the help of Bloomberg news:
“It will be very difficult to get an arrest warrant” outside the U.S. because doping isn’t seen as a serious crime, Mel Goldberg, chairman of the British Association for Sport and Law, said from London. “They can always ask to talk to witnesses but there’s no legal obligation.”
About half of the cycling team’s staff was from Europe. U.S. investigators would require assistance from foreign judicial authorities to make progress, according to Rodrigo Garcia, a lawyer at Laffer Abogados in Madrid who represented three cyclists in a blood-doping investigation in Spain known as Operacion Puerto.

miloman said:Watch it play out and we will see who is right! I will bet that something significant happens before December.
JPM London said:Milo - If I were you, I'd whip out the good old Chewbacca defence now... At least it works better and makes more sense than what else you're posting.
miloman said:Connect the dots. You have somone saying in a published interview they "played with the hot sauce" and was shocked that when they left the team that the other teams didn't dope. Now he says he has no knowledge of what went on within the postal team, it was after his time. Really?
miloman said:You profess to follow this so closely, I'm surprised you don't recognize the quote and the scenerio. And really, do you need to resort to calling names? Do your research, He's a prominent ex-rider who is stilll involved in professional cycling and has a stake in what happens.
Race Radio said:By "Something significant" do you mean an Armstrong indictment or a plea bargain?
python said:i really hate to dog pile but since you went into the trouble of making the innuendos you need to be less cryptic for any credibility.
pls quit or provide solid sources for your outrageous claims.
