Where within her defense did she prove (not suggest) that rules violation was unintentional?

Lock her up. Send SH to guantanamo

Rojo... I literally LOL'ed.
Word of advice: you might want to do some fact checking before you believe random statements made by an anonymous person on the internet.
1) The current WADA rules specifically state that when pork is cited that a pharmacokinetics study must be done to see if the nandrolone is endogenous or exogenous., not the GC/C/IRMS Test which has a 40% fale positive rate.
So many errors in that first statement alone, and I am not talking about the spelling. Read the CAS report if you don't believe me.
[quote]you don't say wrote:
And there you have it:
"Sixth, the concentration of 19-NA in the Athlete’s urine was 2-3 times higher
than the highest values reported in the scientific literature after the ingestion of
much more significant quantities of meat of mature (uncastrated) boar"
And this is on top of everything else.
Shame on all of those in BTC that defended her
I don't think so, it's highly, highly likely that the burrito pork slurry was stewed meet or the concentration of boiled down ingredients.
It could have been a batch from a day or two ago where the men's amount of pork in the pot and down towards the end she might have gotten a huge concentration of not just meat but the student chooses of me where again boil down and concentrated who knows...

Went through the whole thread and nobody seemingly read through her quotes in this article on page 17 of the thread:
“We tested all of my vitamins and supplements which all came back negative. Unfortunately, there were a couple that we didn’t have the original batches of because I was notified a month later and those supplements were already consumed,” shared Houlihan.
SH knows exactly how the nandrolone got in her system. It wasn’t from a food truck.
covid has taught us all that people are happiest when finding "evidence" to believe their priors and when faced with contrary evidence are actually more likely to double down on their original views--it's like end of the world cults, the world doesn't end and the preacher changes the story "we prayed hard enough and were spared"
exactly this going on around a favoured athlete that half this board is giddy for and wants to believe is clean. So a huge raft of misinformation, which avoids the simple fact--she was popped. Could have been anyone, just so happens it was a suspiciously improved athlete

Sorry guys and gals. I've been busy all day and haven't been on her since page 2.
We recorded 3 podcasts today.
Anyway, have people been talking about this :
https://twoggle.github.io/DopingFiles/Article.html#Part1Do we know who wrote that? That to me is mindblowing. If you wrote it, please email me as I want to talk to you. If you read that it's hard to understand why she hasn't been cleared
If you know who wrote it, please let me know.
robert@letsrun.comAnyways, in the past, we've kind ribbed Jonathan Gault on the podcast for being the Shelby doping apologist but having spent a little time on this tonight, I'm thinking of writing an article about "Why Shelby should be cleared, "ut I haven't even read the the whole decision yet.
I'll now briefly explain why. This is my steam of consciousness on it - without much thought and without reading what you all are saying or event the whole decision. I read half the decision and then learned of that document and was blown away.
Before I write my piece, I'd like have you all try to poke holes in any of the following arguments.
Why Shelby should be cleared.
1) The current WADA rules specifically state that when pork is cited that a pharmacokinetics study must be done to see if the nandrolone is endogenous or exogenous., not the GC/C/IRMS Test which has a 40% fale positive rate. WADA refused to run the test that is in their current rules (but was't in effect at the time). THis is absurd to me. This is like not running a DNA test on semen colleciton of a guy convicted of rape in 1970 simply because the tests weren't required in 1970.
2) Under 2015 Wada rules, Shelby whould be cleared. The δ13C values of 19-NA had to be outside the normal endogenous range of -16‰ to -26‰. In other words, it had to be -27‰ to -34‰ (or lower) and Shelby's was 23 according to Paul Greene.
3) Ayotte committed perjury and in the Lawson case and should have been suspended or sanctioned and yet she wasn't and was heavily involved here.
4) If Shelby wanted to dope with oral nandrolone, it would be easy as hell to do.
i) If Shelby had just been on birth control, she'd be cleared automatically according to the link above.
ii) levels went from 187ng/mL to 16.2ng/mL! Shelby had no missed tests, so if she was on oral nandrolone, why wouldn't she just move her testing window to 11 pm that night?
Here are 2 remaining questions I have.
1) How do you explain the following contradictions in the report as to how unlikely it is for an uncastrated pig to be in the US food supply.
“Prof McGlone estimates that the probability of a cryptorchid actually entering the pork supply chain is far less than 1 in 10,000,” the panel wrote.
Prof McGlone’s expert testimony can be summarized as follows: • Boar meat constitutes only a tiny fraction of the US pork market (0.33%).
Which is it - 1 in 10,000 or 1 in 300?
I forgot what my second question is. It's been a long day.
Update. I just remembered.
2) Can the pharmacokinetics study still be run on a sample now? I think this needs to be done ASAP.
Nike, with its infinite resources, hired legal and scientific experts to prepare Houlihan's defense. The AIU brought forward its own world-leading experts, people with scientific credentials and decades of experience in anti-doping. And you're asking us to believe that all of these people - including those hired by Nike/Houlihan - missed something but "Twoggle3", in his shady corner of the internet, has uniquely managed to put together a case that exonerates Houlihan?
Come on...

On what basis do you say that she knows?

Such a defence is not allowed and would have been struck out immediately.
In normal justice the burden is on the prosecution ; that is the whole point.

That piece is definitely the most interesting one I've seen, far more impressive and multifaceted than the report itself.
I prefer generalities to specifics. That approach trends toward the truth far more often than not: When there is suddenly a known problem with positives and a given source, everything related is going to be exponentially more uncertain and complicated than early research will reveal or experts will prefer. That was the problem I had with the report. There were all these definitive or near-definitive conclusions that cannot be accurate, given immature status of nandrolone related to pork, and the related testing. How many cases have there been? How much research? Not fractionally enough, to make statements reaching that level. There is value at the extremes. This is an extreme, which links with uncertainty and therefore benefit of a doubt.
You should contact the author directly. He is on Twitter under the same user name, in fact commenting smartly on this case today.
https://twitter.com/Twoggle3/status/1433152088784183300So, Twoggle3, the great hope for the LRC campaign to exonerate Houlihan, is a guy with 1 follower on Twitter, a guy called Keith Moulton. Twoggle3 only follows 5 people - Shelby, her mom, Molly Huddle, BTC, and... Keith Moulton. What are the odds that Twoggle3 is Keith Moulton? A quick scroll through Keith's timeline reveals he is a Covid vaccine sceptic and supports use of ivermectin. So Twoggle3's only follow/follow-back is a crank with just enough scientific knowledge to use the long words, but not fully understand what they mean. I wouldn't be hanging my hopes on Twoggle3

This is so embarrassing for LRC and the Brojos. LRC, more like "where you see what you want to believe"...
So now it's quite clear that:
- she is a cheat, she doped, as Rojo clearly demonstrated
- by extension, and in agreement with Rojo Centro is also clearly and undeniably a cheat (and a moron)
- Centro should be banned and return the 2016 gold and possibly prior WC medals

She didn’t but tried too with the burrito story.

Thanks for pointing out the quote. I missed it. Why not provide the full list. If I were an innocent athlete, I’d have a list present if everything I was on. Not that I only tested half.
Second point is that this is not a trial. It’s the system in place which the athlete has agreed under the rules to be assumed to not put anything illegal into their bodies. Burden of proof is on her not the wada
The rules of the sport are if you fail a test and appeals, you are guilty and banned. Else you are clean. Nothing else matters as far as IAAF, sponsors, and most people including former fans (except the most diehard ones) are concerned.
If you don’t like those rules, maybe you shouldn’t be a pro runner. The world isn’t perfect, never has been.
sanootage wrote:

On the basis that she was part of a sophisticated doping system run by BTC with the full knowledge and support of nike.
Athletes dont acidentally use PEDs for planned performance enhancement, they do it deliberately and often with outside assistance. you have to be an expert to manipulate the doses so that they cant be detected. you need access to reseacrh faciltiies to keep ahead of the testers and find new drugs. Occasionally slip ups are made and they get caught, but omerta comes in strong and hard.
How can BTC / Nike be a bit bent? Can you imagine being part of a team and suspecting your mates are doing drugs and not doing them yourselves. You know you are going to have to cover up for cheats, so why wouldnt you cheat yourself?
I really don’t understand the SH believers. The odds are very high that she was doping irrespective of the failed test.
Every pro runner I’ve known admits to PED use as commonplace and as a necessary evil around them. They of course don’t explicitly say “therefore I do them too because I have no choice” but from the casualness and acceptance in their tone, it’s pretty damn obvious. I personally don’t judge them for using PEDs in modest amounts as long as they don’t fail the test limits.

It has every single element of a trial and the penalties are severe.
Most non legal hearings pay due respect to normal justice; why not sport.
Think billionaire sports stars will make this point.

Why did Houlihan wait until the AIU report to state that she's appealing this when the original report in PDF was out 5 days before the AIU's report?
