Was Jenny Simpson herself actually a Dr. Brown patient? Jenny Simpson doesn't deny that she too was a patient of Dr. Brown's

Whenever someone vehemently claims the moral high ground with no mercy for transgressors, you can best believe they themselves are guilty as sin.

LRC scoops BBC this time.

Lol! I thought Jenny was supposed to be smart?

This has blown up in her face, should have kept quiet.

What is the timeline on this? Was Dr. Brown working with NOP at the time Simpson was his patient? Had any of the allegations against him emerged at that point in time?

She has a right to privacy. What she does off the track is none of anyone’s business!

Five minute mark.

But she's ready to smear others regarding what they do off the track.

It's at 5:08.

I gotta say, now that the shoe's on the other foot and she's the one getting grilled she sure did dodge that question hard. Wow.

She has a right to medical privacy, of course. But if the answer is no, it's easy to say no.

Good question.

Not a good answer when she's had a shot at others just for being associated with NOP, etc.

Hahah. Wow wow wow. This is the trash that much of the insiders know. Alberto getting crucified while everyone else gets a pass.

Rojo: appreciate taking the blinders off for once. Now ask the other athletes. Ask jenny about her asthma as well. Ask Shalane about Dr brown.

If we are going to crucify Alberto over the grey area then let’s be open about everyone.

This seems like a case of whataboutism. Jenny is pointing out problems with other people, they can't defend their actions, so they point out potential problems with her?

I mean I think she's doping too but it doesn't really seem like a grownup argument to me.

Rojo, I hardly ever agree with you, but job well done!

This was kind of the point of my post earlier today about Dr. Brown:

I linked to a 6-yr old article from the Wall Street Journal about Dr. Brown and his patients. The title identifies him as "U.S. Track's Physician":

Ha ha ha ha!

On a serious note, if the answer is 'no', Jenny Barringer should hav e just said 'no!'

She didn't.

End of story.

She has just opened another frontier. I can bet that this is not she last we'll hear about this issue. I am shocked, shocked, shocked........that there is gambling going on in someone's casino.

I think that happened in Morocco, didn't it?

If your college coach and USATF both vouch for someone it’s understandable to trust them. I would be more interested in knowing why and when she decided to stop going to him.

Word class distance runners are always only going to have 1-2 degrees of separation between them. Everyone at that level has trained with someone who doped, been coached by someone who doped, or at the least has trained with or been coached by someone who was associated/friends with someone who doped.

A flow chart showing how everyone is connected to everyone else would be revealing.

I don't believe Jenny attacked other athletes as if they were doping, but for NOP athletes, who came after the allegations were public knowledge, to say they weren't aware is B.S. Jenny said Alberto should be out and he is for 4 years and she didn't know why others would be a part of the group. She didn't feel sorry for people who joined the group when these allegations were going on and if others thought they cheated. She also said she wasn't going to be judge and jury of who is cheating and doping.

It's a great question to ask about Simpson and Brown, but I would venture to say that a number of athletes saw Brown, but the question isn't whether she saw him ever, but whether she saw him during the time of the allegations and after.

If she won't refute the association, then don't bother feeling bad for her.

She has the physical appearance of a female with an elevated T-level, IMO.
