Sorry of this is already being discussed elsewhere.

Italian police are investigating charges that Casagranda bought EPO four years ago at Marostica, near Venice. Whereas authorities say they have a tape of Hvastija in his room during the 2001 Giro d'Italia allegedly injecting the drug Kenakort (an illegal corticoid).
So, four years ago and three years ago, is there a statute of limitations on this?
What about those cyclists/racers who have changed their ways?
Next we'll be seeing photos of some of them hiding out behind a barn smoking Grandpa's cigars and drinking Grandma's cooking sherry when they were 12 years old.

Oh well, the past is always with us I guess.
