:::The IAAF rule concerning teammates is not always applied. Jerome Young tested positive for PEDs at the 2000 Oly Games, yet the US 4x400 relay team he was on (including Michael Johnson) was able to keep their medals. http://www.redorbit.com/news/sports/181945/michael_johnson_keeps_gold_after_court_ruling/ --[[User:Fizbin|Fizbin]] 21:19, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
:::::Looking at the reference, that wasn't an IAAF ruling - they took the medals, then the [[Court of Arbitration for Sport]] returned them because the rule affecting teammates wasn't in place at the time of the Sydney Games. So it looks like Marion's teammates may be safe as well. - [[User:EronMain|Eron]] <sup>[[User Talk:EronMain|Talk]]</sup> 23:11, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
::::Well the USADA has stripped her of the medals. So she's no longer the recipient of them. Right now they're in limbo as to who they'll finally belong to until the IOC makes a ruling. But Jones is no longer the winner. Infact she's been stripped of all medals and awards from 9/1/00 to the present as of today.

:::::Can the USADA strip medals that they didn't award? (That's a genuine question; if so, I'd love to see the rule.) - [[User:EronMain|Eron]] <sup>[[User Talk:EronMain|Talk]]</sup> 23:09, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
