In theory the lab personnel should be neutral in their conduct. If she has been hired as a consultant to assist them in their case, then she better be ready to say so because that immediately identifies her as biased. Question is whether that makes a difference to "the majority". <BR/><BR/>Her described conduct indicates to me that she sees a lot of problems with what the witness is saying and is trying to give USADA/WADA the questions or lines of question to rehabilitate the witness.<BR/>pcrosbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-46686586601211693822007-05-16T15:35:00.000-07:002007-05-16T15:35:00.000-07:00Kick there a$$ suh.

I don't know if there is anything bad about what she is doing. Landis has Dr. Baker and he basically stole the #2 guy from UCLA to be on his team.

So unusual that I am not sure what the line is on evidence and questioning here. Worth a try in order to establish bias.<BR/> If the flow is from her to the attorney, then I can't think of any normal confidentiality that attaches. <BR/><BR/>Amusing to have your description of how she is conducting herself and compare it to the rules laid down by the IOC for decorum and avoiding distractions. Most of the judges I know would have steam coming out of their ears.<BR/><BR/>This may simply mean that those of us who wished that the most recent tests were done at UCLA misplaced our confidence.<BR/>pcrosbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-43151711838396901302007-05-16T15:02:00.000-07:002007-05-16T15:02:00.000-07:00Floyd is flying up the Morzine as we speak!Floyd is flying up the Morzine as we speak!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-7463559123751686892007-05-16T14:49:00.000-07:002007-05-16T14:49:00.000-07:00Apologies, you must be sick of hearing my voice, b...Apologies, you must be sick of hearing my voice, but I just wanted to say that I'd rather listen to your coverage than watch it live.<BR/><BR/>One of the reasons for this is that this is exactly the format I followed Floyd's victory on Stage 17 last year (whilst at work !) ... the TdF website had a live feed on the progress.<BR/><BR/>The irony (poetic justice ?) of his hearing being transmitted in exactly the same format as his historic stage victory is quite striking to me.<BR/><BR/>Go Floyd !.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-33771841860790941962007-05-16T14:48:00.000-07:002007-05-16T14:48:00.000-07:00Rhetorical question, I know, but under what rule i...Rhetorical question, I know, but under what rule is Cynthia Henson allowed to do what she's doing?

There are 2 more additional "B" sample "positives". Ms Monongu may have tested these or Ms Ferlot, who testifies later, did. I can see where there was confusion. <BR/><BR/>pcrosby:<BR/>The technical people are NOT subject to sequestration.<BR/>In fact, what really bothers me today is Cynthia Henson(?) of the WADA UCLA lab sitting with the USADA lawyers, virtually at counsel table and becoming clearly agitated passing notes during Monongu's testimony. She has had many conferences with Mr Dunn. In fact, one time she dropped some papers in her rush to pass her notes that Amber Landis had to reach over and retreive some of them for her because she didn't know she had dropped any of her notes.Laura Challoner, DVMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00606828463436614790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-23519363591604812762007-05-16T14:21:00.000-07:002007-05-16T14:21:00.000-07:00Mwesty, I believe there were 7 (confirmed) "B" sam...Mwesty, I believe there were 7 (confirmed) "B" samples tested and the report was 4 (not confirmed)came out positive. <BR/><BR/>I would say go hit Daily Peleton Forum, there is a couple of posts that can answer your questions fairly sure over there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-12723838418931965362007-05-16T14:19:00.000-07:002007-05-16T14:19:00.000-07:00Cathy -- try the contact on the first page of http...Cathy -- try the contact on the first page of http://www.floydfairnessfund.org/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31819641.post-87696480598427799092007-05-16T14:17:00.000-07:002007-05-16T14:17:00.000-07:00I'm not clear on the "B" sample test results.
