Testimonies of the well-known toxicologist Bruce Goldberger will probably influence significantly on decision of the court in the case against Roger Clemens. Bruce Goldberger is the Professor of Pathology and Director of Toxicology at the University of Florida College of Medicine. This expert testified on behalf of Roger Clemens. However he was invited in order to replace Don Catlin, the director of the WADA UCLA Medicine, Goldberger’s testimonies differed from those which are ordinarily presented by anti-doping organizations. This toxicologist testified on behalf of the accused athlete.
Bruce Goldberger has gained his celebrity due to his appearing on various news programs. Even during such programs he doesn’t abstain from critical words. He criticized certain anti-doping organizations, including the WADA.
Bruce Goldberger criticized feds in the case related to Roger Clemens. They based on “beer can evidence” presented by McNamee to support that his client took steroids and HGH. Brian McNamee, the former personal coach of Roger Clemens, presented a beer can containing utilized needles and syringes that had traces of such steroids, as Sustanon, Primobolan Depot and Deca Durabolin and were mixed allegedly with blood of Roger Clemens. The beer can was kept by McNamee over 6 years. The toxicologist noted that such basis was not reasonable.
Bruce Goldberger claimed that it was impossible to base on “beer can evidence”. He noted that no one could prove that Roger Clemens used steroids and HGH, basing on the beer can, because the theory of contamination could present.
Thus, Bruce Goldberger didn’t support the evidence used by the feds. Earlier he also expressed criticism connected with evidence applied by several anti-doping organizations.
Some years ago the toxicologist Bruce Goldberger testified on behalf of the American cyclist Floyd Landis, when this athlete appealed positives for steroids. A WADA-accredited lab located in France discovered traces of exogenous testosterone; T: E ratio and carbon isotope ratio tests were utilized by the lab. Bruce Goldberger expressed similar words and criticism during the appeal related to Floyd Landis.
Bruce Goldberger confirmed during an interview that the WADA utilized inadequate ways and violated rights of sportspeople in order to have the success in anti-doping programs.
Floyd Landis didn’t have success in his appeal and acknowledged that he had used steroids, EPO and several other related drugs.
No one knows which results will be reached by Roger Clemens. Will the government prove that he has lied before the Congress? Will he admit to administering forbidden products? Or will be the results contrary?
