http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/dec14j.html Juventus pair acquitted on appeal Wednesday 14 December, 2005 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Juventus managing director Antonio Giraudo and club doctor Riccardo Agricola have been acquitted of doping-related charges in the appeals court today. The two were accused of administering a club-sanctioned drugs programme in which Juve players were supplied with illegal performance-enhancing pharmaceuticals, including EPO, between 1994 and 1998 – a period during which the Bianconeri won three League championships and one Champions League title. While Giraudo was acquitted in court in November 2004, Agricola was found guilty under Italy's "sporting fraud" laws which were introduced to criminalise drugs cheats and sentenced to one year and 10 months in prison. However, both the accused were found not guilty in Turin's Appeals Court this afternoon after the judges decided that it could not apply law 401 of 1989 ("sporting fraud") in this instance of drug use at the club. As for the allegations of EPO use, the Court found there to be no case to answer. Although Agricola was found guilty last year, he did not serve any time behind bars as Italian law prevents first-time offenders from having to serve sentences of under two years as a matter of course. In the event of a guilty verdict Agricola would have been struck off but, after clearing his name, he can now return to medicine again. "It's a great day," said Giraudo. "Justice has been done." －－－ 　　我不全文翻譯了，有興趣的再自己看， 　　簡單的說，上一次判決隊醫 Agricola被判一年十個月，Giraudo無罪， 　　不過 JUVE並不滿意，進行上訴， 　　這次在都靈的上訴法庭，法官撤回了對 Agricola的有罪宣判，結案！ 　　還蠻爽的，因為我最討厭歹戲拖棚。 -- 我們身體裡豢養的死亡一天天長大. --
