According to
reports, American cycling stars George Hincapie, Levi Leipheimer, David
Zabriskie, and Christian Vande Velde are all reportedly going to testify
against Armstrong in the USADA's doping case.
If
this is in fact accurate, it makes you wonder why the Federal
Prosecutors dropped its own investigation into Armstrong's doping.
No
reason was provided for ending the investigation. André Birotte Jr., the United
States attorney for the Central District of California, announced the end of
the investigation, which involved several federal agencies, in a brief
statement. He did not cite a reason for the decision and declined to comment
further. He said,
"The
United States Attorney determined that a public announcement concerning the
closing of the investigation was warranted by numerous reports about the
investigation in media outlets around the world."
The
roster of witnesses is quite compelling - particularly in the case of Hincapie.
He and Armstrong were very good friends.
