Lance may take lie detector, says lawyer
Armstrong has been labelled a serial cheat and a bully who led “the most sophisticated, professionalised and successful doping programme that sport has ever seen” by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), which has stripped him of his seven Tour de France titles and banned him from cycling for life.
His lawyer Tim Herman said he would be keen for the 26 witnesses who testified against Armstrong to the USADA to take lie detector tests. “A lie detector test properly administered, I’m a proponent of that frankly, just personally,” he told Radio 5 Live’s Sportsweek programme. I wouldn’t challenge the results of a lie detector test with good equipment, properly administered by a qualified technician. That’s a pretty simple answer.”
