Andre Birote, an attorney announced during a press conference that the US Attorney’s Office closed the investigation linked with the case of Lance Armstrong. This person didn’t note about any reason of this decision. But he just said that come previous similar cases were also closed.
For example, the case linked with Barry Bonds was claimed to be unsuccessful. Prosecutors couldn’t prove that this sportsperson had lied about usage of steroids. As for the case linked with Roger Clemens, the trial was indicated for another time because the judge proclaimed about previous mistrial.
Investigators thought that a doping program was established by Armstrong’s team. They tried to define whether it was so as they thought. Authorities investigated whether Lance Armstrong encouraged or induced doping.

While Barry Bonds testified before a federal grand jury and Clemens testified before Congress, Armstrong wasn’t required to testify before a grand jury. Barry Bonds and Clemens were accused in lying under oath.
Frank, a former teammate of Lance Armstrong, and her wife Betsy Andreu charged Armstrong with administration of forbidden preparations. They noticed that they were shocked by the decision to close the investigation. They concluded that such cases happened due to money and corruption.
