Show me a single person who has argued that Houlihan has no right to a defense. A lot of people argue she's guilty, and that an appeal will be futile. Nobody has said that she shouldn't have that right to appeal. Your going to write an article responding to an argument nobody has made.
As for the CSC, show me where they have said an athlete shouldn't have the right to appeal. You can't. They also didn't say that Houlihan shouldn't have a Gofundme. All they said was that people shouldn't donate to it, which is fair comment, just as it's fair for you to argue that people should donate to it if you want. Your comments implied that the CSC was advocating denying Houlihan her rights which no one has said at all. You should withdraw them.
The CSC which stands for Clean Sport is openly advocating that people do not donate to an athlete who says they were wrongly convicted or did know knowingly dope. That should not be their role in my opinion.
To have the cleanest sport possible we need to have confidence that all the athlete convicted are guilty. That means they have a right to fund their best defense possible. Shelby has a right to raise funds at any point in her defense, just as Asbel Kiprop, Justin Gatlin or any other athlete does.
It's a basic premise of American jurisprudence that people can try and fund their defense. If Shelby is lying and raising funds under false pretenses as Floyd Landis found out that is a federal crime.
