Assistant US Attorney Doug Miller will now work alongside the Food and Drug Administration criminal investigator Jeff Novitzky who, like Miller, was involved in uncovering the BALCO affair.
According to the New York Daily News, Miller’s role will complement the digging currently being done by Novitzky, who has had several meetings with Landis and other potential witnesses. It is rumoured that Lance Armstrong’s ex-wife Kristin is one of those who is co-operating, but this has not been confirmed.
Something tells me we're going to see a lot of Armstrong press conferences next month during the Tour de France. Especially now that the American Garmin Transitions team has been ordered by its team director to cooperate with investigators.
Armstrong and Bruyneel have denied the claims and sought to paint their accuser as being unstable. However, in what may be a worrying sign, the Garmin Transitions team has called on any of their current employees with knowledge of the situation to co-operate with the enquiry, and to tell the truth ‘whatever that truth is.’ Dave Zabriskie and Matt White, who previously both competed with the USPS team, were named by Landis as having been involved.
