Victor Conte is not perfect, but he has admitted his mistakes. Of all the drug cheats and their enablers, he is the most transparent now. Compare him to Lance Armstrong, Mark Block, Angel Heredia, Trevor Graham, Justin Gatlin, Marion Jones, etc. If I were to believe anyone who was involved in doping, Victor would be the one. Other than Conte, no one else has made the commitment to fight the doping culture they developed. He has no one to protect. Unlike many others he called Lance out before Lance confessed to the world on Oprah. How many of us protect Lance or were afraid to say anything until he finally admitted it himself? Victor Conte is now making the same assertions regarding Usain Bolt, other Jamaican sprinters, and the Oregon Project. When it comes to calling out drug cheats before they are caught or confess, Conte's record is very good. And with that...I say, you don't have to believe him now, but don't be surprised when claims against Usain Bolt and Oregon Project are proven correct in a year, two, or some other time in the near future.

http://twitter.com/victorconteVictor no longer has nothing to lose or gain by making accusations. He seems to be interested in revealing the truth regarding doping athletes.
Let's see, Victor was a liar and a criminal. He got caught. Lied. Was proven a liar. Busted. Etc.
Lost everything.
Since then, the Bay Area press has characterized him as a notorious attention seeker... Google and read some articles in the last year.
He has offices where he has taken pictures from the web and printed them out, and framed them to make it seem like he has these pictures given to him from these famous names.
He is desperate for attention, to be hired as an expert, he's asked to be hired a by USADA and WADA.
He's tying to make a living still, as a supplier of supplements for athletes -- the touts himself now as "doing it clean."
There is no whore like a desperate reformed whore.
Note: There are people who are nobodies, who try and find ways to associate with somebodies.
Victor Conte is the classic example of a attention seeking sociopath.
He's a pathetic figure.
I won't do your googling for you, but you can easily find an article in the past year or so where he tries "selling" his new business to a reporter.
Victor Conte is about as genuine as a comb over.
He, as the record shows, lied to many athletes about what other athletes he was working with. Classic narcissist, sociopath, lowlife.
You couldn't trust him then, you can't trust him now.
And you're a light wit to think you can now.
Oh, in addition to his crimes before he was busted, he then leaked grand jury testimony to the press.
The guy has no believability left.
Freaking get educated and know the whole story and stop floating slanderous crap.
