Testimonies of the celebrated toxicologist Bruce Goldberger will probably impact greatly on decision of the court in the case linked with Roger Clemens. Bruce Goldberger is the Professor of Pathology and Director of Toxicology at the University of Florida College of Medicine. This expert testified on behalf of Roger Clemens. However he was called in order to replace Don Catlin, the director of the WADA UCLA Medicine, Goldberger’s testimonies didn’t correspond to those that are ordinarily provided by anti-doping organizations. He testified on behalf of the accused baseball player.
Bruce Goldberger is known due to his participation in various news programs. Even during such programs he doesn’t abstain from criticism. He criticized several anti-doping agencies, including the WADA.
The toxicologist expressed criticism for feds in the case linked with Roger Clemens. They based on “beer can evidence” presented by Brian McNamee to prove that his client took steroids and HGH. Brian McNamee, the former personal trainer of this sportsman, presented a beer can with used needles and syringes which had traces of such steroids, as Sustanon, Primobolan Depot and Deca Durabolin and were mixed allegedly with Roger Clemens’ blood. The beer can was stored by McNamee more than 6 years. The toxicologist argued that such basis was not reasonable.
Bruce Goldberger confirmed that it was impossible to base on “beer can evidence”. He noticed that no one could prove that Roger Clemens used steroids and HGH, basing on the beer can, because the theory of contamination could present.
So, Bruce Goldberger didn’t support the evidence used by the feds. Earlier he also expressed criticism related to evidence used by some anti-doping organizations.
Some years ago the toxicologist Bruce Goldberger testified on behalf of Floyd Landis, an American celebrated cyclist, when this sportsman appealed positives for steroids. A WADA-accredited lab situated in France discovered traces of exogenous testosterone; T: E ratio and carbon isotope ratio tests were used by the lab. Bruce Goldberger used similar words and criticism during the appeal connected with Floyd Landis.
Goldberger said during an interview that the WADA utilized inadequate methods and violated rights of sportspersons in order to have the success in anti-doping programs.
Floyd Landis didn’t have success in his appeal and admitted that he had used steroids, EPO and certain other related medicines.
No one knows which results will be achieved by Roger Clemens. Will the government prove that he has lied before the Congress? Will he admit to using forbidden preparations? Or will be the results opposite?
