The feds are now involved!! 1st person charged under Rodchenkov Act in Blessing Okagbare doping case

"On or about June 22, 2021, Athlete-1 wrote to LIRA, “Hola amigo / Eric my body feel so good / I just ran 10.63 in the 100m on Friday / with a 2.7 wind / I am sooooo happy / Ericccccccc / Whatever you did, is working so well.” Shortly thereafter, and in advance of Athlete-1’s arrival in Tokyo to compete in the 2020 Olympics, LIRA encouraged his client: “What you did ... is going to help you for the upcoming events. You are doing your part and you will be ready to dominate” (ellipsis in original)."

Athlete-1 was caught in a drug test conducted around July 19, 2021 and the athlete was suspended from Olympic competition, "including in the women's 100m semi-finals" the evening of July 30, 2021, prosecutors said.

so who is athlete 1?

Blessing, lol... But indeed, this is great news:

He is the first charged under the Rodchenkov Act passed in December 2020 that extends enforcement of illegal drug activities to international events.

I hope they'll raid BTC to look into their roiding.

Rather, who is athlete 2?

CJ and Blessings are based in the same camp. Check out the other members of the group.

Shouldn't have to look very hard. 🤣

If they don't bust Jacobs then they ain't accomplishing much.

I accept the points made so far.

I add that I am surprised at the utter stupidly of thinking that you could avoid being tested at the Olympics.

This has none of the sophistication of a Conte type drug use plan.

Could Reider be that stupid to sanction all this?

I and most people on this forum don't know much about sprinting. Who is athlete #2?

Legalize it!

No more drug tests. Let everyone do their things and compete.

This argument is satisfying short term but kind of intellectually lazy. You'd basically ruin women's sports for all biological women. If you weren't willing to steroid yourself to almost man-like status, you'd have no shot.

How was she busted in June and running the Olympics in July?

Because drug tests from the USADA and WADA are worthless and were showing she was clean when she was actually micro-dosing. She only returned "positive" tests after someone she snitched on her. The USADA and WADA got to cover up that they are failures.

So the first unidentified party is clearly Blessing. The second, unnamed athlete with the hamstring issue is likely one of the following two training group members:

Tyquendo Tracey- Jamaican 100m champion

Adam Gemili- Pulled his hamstring in the semis at the Olympics

But if going back to previous season, team member De Grasse has also struggled with severe hamstring injuries.
