The comfortable satisfaction standard is well-known in CAS practice, as it has been the normal CAS standard in many anti-doping cases even prior to the World Anti- Doping Code (WADC). The test of comfortable satisfaction must take into account the circumstances of the case. Those circumstances include the paramount importance of fighting corruption of any kind in sport and also considering the nature and restricted powers of the investigation authorities of the governing bodies of sport as compared to national formal interrogation authorities. The gravity of the particular alleged wrongdoing is relevant to the application of the comfortable satisfaction standard in any given case.

Die Olympischen Spiele in PyeongChang 2018 sind gerade vorüber und ich hoffe, Sie haben ihre Teil- nahme genossen. Ich hoffe, Sie waren erfolgreich und freuen sich über Ihre Medaillen. Wenn dem so sein sollte tut es mir leid, dass der Triumph niemals vollständig sein wird. Ich hätte mir für Sie ge- wünscht, dass Sie gegen die besten Athleten aus Russland hätten antreten können. Jetzt aber wer- den Sie niemals wissen, ob Sie ihre Medaille zum Beispiel auch gegen Viktor Ahn, Anton Shipulin, Sergey Ustiugov oder Alexander Legkov gewonnen hätten. Sie werden mit der Tatsache leben müssen, dass die Olympischen Spiele 2018 irregulär waren. Ihnen wurde der pure und vollständige Sieg genommen und Sie sind Opfer des beispiellosen Angriffs auf die Integrität der Olympischen Spiele geworden. Sie mögen glauben, dass der Angriff von russischen Athleten in der Vergangenheit herrührt und dass Ihre russischen Gegner abwesend waren, um Sie als saubere Athleten zu schützen. Das ist es, was das Internationale Olympische Komitee und WADA Sie glauben lassen möchte. Die Wahrheit sieht anders aus.

Selthoffer Athletes Channel September 12, 2019 20:12 pm GMT +1 (Lausanne, SUI) – New revelations have come to light in the Sun Yang case from Chinese state run media Xinhuanet in the past two days upending global public opinion that only one member of the three person testing team was trained to perform the tests on the swimmer, also calling into question the ages of the other two anti-doping DCOs and their medical training according to Sun’s attorney Zhang Qihuai, Chinese Media: Tester in Sun Yang Case was Untrained Classmate of Main Officer, Jared Anderson, SwimSwam, August 28, 2019. In a second report this time from Channel News Asia August 27 states that there is possible security video footage of the anti-doping mission that night. Sun states (Weibo) “There is something I can’t say, I can’t make the truth public… But fortunately the surveillance cameras have recorded everything, otherwise I won’t be able to defend myself against irresponsible accusations.” And it was announced earlier from the Court of Arbitration and Sport, Lausanne, SUI on August 20, 2019 that the Sun Yang, CHN and FINA vs WADA CAS case will be held after October 2019 in public with full media in attendance. That changes the dynamics. This a major victory for transparency, athletes rights and will force issues out into the open that WADA, the IOC and others have been reluctant to address.

Selthoffer Athletes Channel July 3, 2020 10:12 am GMT +1:00 (Lausanne, SUI) – Jim Walden, managing partner, Walden, Macht & Haran LLP and attorney for Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov RU, issued a statement on June 24, 2020 regarding the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy Report on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) saying: “The White House deserves applause for this rigorous report that quantifies the deep problems with international sports governance that make the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping act a necessity. This report reveals that WADA is at a minimum incompetent when dealing with serious, endemic corruption, and that it disregards even its own investigators to protect its bottom line. The Executive and Legislative branches are clearly of one voice on this issue. This desperately needed legislation will finally give the Department of Justice the license to do the job of protecting clean athletes and U.S. interests that WADA has failed at for decades.” https://wmhlaw.com/2020/06/24/statement-on-white-house-office-of-national-drug-control-policy-report-on-world-anti-doping- agency/ There has been a meticulously orchestrated, fully-funded white glove approach on behalf of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) over the past year to “express their concerns” in Washington regarding the new Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act now passed by the US Congress and Senate from becoming law. The soft and gentile lobbying efforts mask a below the surface, vigorous intensity no less deadly to limit or stop RADA entirely.
