Doesn't sound like the agreed upon procedures even came close to being
followed:

http://floydlandis.com/blog/
Quoted:

Scott said, "In my years at the UCLA lab, I've never seen anything
like what I experienced at the LNDD yesterday. The limitation placed
on me and Simon [Davis - an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectometry expert also
selected by Landis to observe the retesting] demonstrates the lack of
objectivity in this process, USADA's interest in controlling and
limiting our observation of the retesting is an example of one of the
most egregious problems in the fundamental science of anti-doping that
I have experienced."

Lots more there. If this is actually true then noone could even begin
to consider the results and procedures to be credible.
This is pretty damning malfeasance of everyone involved IMO. Of
course he's saying what I've been saying all along. The labs know what
results are wanted, and are being massively pressured to deliver those
results. I don't know if they are actually rigging results but the
system reeks.
