The American professional cyclist Lance Armstrong was accused of doping. It was suspected that the athlete had administered EPO and other prohibited drugs.
Many individuals provided their testimonies in the court during the investigation connected with Lance Armstrong’s case. A former girlfriend of the sportsperson was also targeted. She was scheduled to appear in the court. Certain sports writers claimed that the musician Sheryl Crow had been interviewed by federal prosecutors.
The athlete Lance Armstrong and the musician Sheryl Crow were claimed to be one of the most famous couples. They spent a lot of time together. Sheryl Crow lived with the seven-time winner of Tour de France in Spain. The musician travelled with Lance Armstrong during his workouts. They were in a close relationship, when Lance Armstrong won Tour de France the 7th time.
Lance Armstrong’s former teammates Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton noted that Lance Armstrong had administered prohibited medications. They also confirmed that the athlete had been the leader of a doping team. In addition to these affirmations, they confirmed that Armstrong’s apartment had been full of equipment used for administration of forbidden medications. These individuals were going to testify against the 7-time winner of tour de France. They confirmed that the cyclist had won Tour de France 7 times with the help of prohibited preparations.
As for Sheryl Crow, she didn’t appear in the court because the case against the sportsperson was dropped prior to the hearing.
While the government dropped the case, the USADA continued to pursue the former cyclist. As a result, Lance Armstrong forfeited his titles. He was also sentenced to life-time ban from professional sports. Fortunately, his charity against cancer was not destroyed. Sponsors continue to support Lance Armstrong and donate. Although his titles are forfeited, Lance Armstrong is appreciated because he helps numerous persons in their efforts against cancer.
