I'm no fan of doping, but is this really defrauding the federal government??

Yes. He broke his contract with them. Anti Doping clause. He fucked up.
-
He also lied in depositions. That's gotta be a problem for the feds. I'd think the "fraud" would be more in the neighborhood of misleading Livestrong investors by misrepresenting his personal brand for a decade. But I'm not a lawyer so *shrug*
-
All due respect, he broke his contract with the Fed. He lied and they want their money back. Same as any other sponsor who has a clause. He shamed himself and his nation. Paid heavy price.
-
My confusion was a gap in my understanding of USPS. As it is actually a federal agency not a company, you're right that a breach of contract is a federal breach. Safe to say that government (i.e. taxpayer) club support sponsorship should not exist.

Can someone tell me again why Marion Jones went to prison again? I’m sure what she did had to be was worse, but I can’t see it anywhere

Moral of the story kids is to lie, cheat, steal your way to the top and settle out court later and still have Millions. The new American way.

Armstrong is still a millionaire, much earned by endorsements based on fraud. I'm surprised that more sponsors didn't sue. Thing is, after beating cancer, he would have been a hero for just completing the Tour de France. Now he'll be remembered as a cheater.

Let me get this straight, Armstrong received $100 million in endorsements and other payouts from USPS, but only has to pay back $5 million. How do I get a deal like that?
