Salazar gave Kara Goucher prescription Cytomel, without a prescription or physician's approval.m That is a violation of both local and federal law. He was in possession of Testosterone gel and apparently used it on athlete without a MD's approval. You might want to rethink your assumptions...
While I agree, there's a huge difference between "against the law" and "against the law" with meaningful judicial process sanctions. No District Attorney will touch it.
If there were substantial laws that made cases relatively easy to take to trial and win the trial, then we'd have the NCAA and USOC in an absolute panic.
Ball sports fans forgive an enormous amount of transgressions, see Joe Paterno. Doping and the long term health consequences are forgiven. Your team doesn't even have to win much. Most ball sports fans would not be happy if doping were brought under control.
