RICO only lifts the protecting corporate veil to expose the decision makers if it is a US corporation.

That is nonsense.

A bunch of Outer Mongolian businessmen, joined together in a corporation, who do criminal acts together in the USA are just as subject to criminal liability as a bunch of Des Moines businessmen doing the same thing.

So if your Outer Mongolian businessmen were carrying on business in the US through an Outer Mongolian corporation then that corporation would need to register in a state as a foreign branch where it proposes to carry on business, employ, open bank accounts, enter into contracts, hold assets including land and maintain its principal office (to accept service of documents).

In effect the Outer Mongolian corporation becomes subject to the State and Federal laws of the US through this foreign branch which must exist for it to carry on business within a state(s) of the US.

If the Outer Mongolian businessmen were conducting criminal activity in the US but not through their Outer Mongolian corporation then they would be individually culpable.

Did you look at the last paragraph referred to concerning Ferrari's financial arrangements in Europe before you leaped into your usual legal lecture haranguing?

THE RUSSIAN - Even Denis Menchov, winner of the 2009 Giro, according to investigators made ​​use of the advice of Ferrari. The Russian Rabobank is intercepted September 19, 2010 while talking on the phone with the attorney Scimone. He says he "will that all cyclists who work with him will be met with Ferrari, in particular Dimitri (perhaps Kozontchuk, ed)."

According to Gazzetta's published excerpts of the Ferrari wiretaps, Denis Menchov not only works with Ferrari, he actively pressures all his team mates (or at least "cyclists who work with him") to use Ferrari, and organizes their connection to Ferrari.

Does this make Menchov an Armstrong-esque figure, not only doping on his own but also pressuring other riders into doping and getting them connected with doping doctors?

Must've worked too well with Cobo.

Were these riders training with Ferrari this year?

This is Moser's first year as a neo pro and It's hard to believe he would have trained under Ferrari as a junior.

It seems Pozzatto isn't the only idiot out there.

If riders and teams are dependant on bankers to keep up the Omerta they are in real trouble. They will rat everyone out if it will keep themselves out of jail :D

Ferrari allegedly understood doping assistance got too dangerous and he decided to expand range of services. To me, this sounds absolutely fabulously. Rather, legal advice and fake contracts were a peculiar trailer to doping practices.

It's a 100% fact according to him. Nothing's impossible when it comes to doping and riders these days but I, for one, would like to see some evidence.

Surely it's Moreno's older brother, Leonardo Moser, then? Pro from 2005 to 2009.

OK. How about the US Feds reopening the Federal investigation that was closed earlier this year?

Give this some time. Noone in Justice is doing much until after the November elections. Why some Republican ****s haven't played up support by Senators Feinstein & Boxer is the electorates current "women's issue" sensitivity. It will come and involve the requisite wire fraud and tax evasion.

The Moser in the Bertagnolli paper is likely not Moreno, but Leonardo. Moreno was 17 at the time.

OK, I amended the original post to reflect the exact phrasing of Bertagnolli's statement, which says it was "Francesco Moser's cyclist nephew."

As for Vinokourov, Bertagnolli witnessed his training with Ferrari in 2006, so is pre-suspension. However, it being pre-suspension means little. Vinokourov was directly involved with both Fuentes and Ferrari, is knowledgeable to the point of expertise on the subject of systematic team doping involving transfusions, EPO, Ferrari, and the whole system. He is totally unacceptable as a team manager. Astana's license should be withdrawn. My guess is, once the formal accusations come out, Astana will cease to exist. More on that later.
