Testimonies of the celebrated toxicologist Bruce Goldberger will probably influence greatly on decision of the court in the case related to Roger Clemens. Bruce Goldberger is the Professor of Pathology and Director of Toxicology at the University of Florida College of Medicine. This specialist didn’t testify on behalf of the government. 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 which are usually provided by anti-doping organizations. He testified on behalf of the accused baseball player.
Bruce Goldberger has gotten his celebrity due to his participation in various news programs. Even during such programs he doesn’t abstain from critical words. Bruce Goldberger criticized several anti-doping agencies, including the WADA.
Bruce Goldberger criticized feds in the case linked with Roger Clemens. They based on “beer can evidence” presented by McNamee to support that his client used steroids and HGH. Brian McNamee, the former personal coach of this sportsman, provided 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 maintained by McNamee more than 6 years. The toxicologist noticed that such basis was not reasonable.
Bruce Goldberger claimed that it was impossible to base on “beer can evidence”. He added 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, the toxicologist Bruce Goldberger didn’t support the affirmations of the feds. Earlier the toxicologist also expressed criticism related to evidence utilized by certain anti-doping agencies.
Several years ago Goldberger testified on behalf of Floyd Landis, an American celebrated cyclist, when this sportsperson appealed positives for steroids. A WADA-accredited lab located in France discovered traces of exogenous testosterone; T: E ratio and carbon isotope ratio tests were applied by the lab. Bruce Goldberger expressed similar words and criticism during the appeal connected with Floyd Landis.
The toxicologist Bruce Goldberger noted during an interview that the WADA utilized inadequate ways and violated rights of athletes in order to achieve the success in anti-doping programs.
Floyd Landis lost his appeal and admitted that he had taken steroids, EPO and several other related preparations.
Nobody can be sure which results will be reached by Roger Clemens. Will the government prove that he has lied before the Congress? Will he admit to administering forbidden products? Or will be the results contrary?
