H. Cooperation with Law Enforcement Investigation, Late 2004
Recent, well-publicized events have shown the importance of cooperation
between sports leagues and law enforcement investigations with respect to athletes’ use of
performance enhancing substances. The Commissioner’s Office has cooperated in at least one
such investigation before 2007.
Beginning in October 2004, senior officials in both the labor and security
departments of the Commissioner’s Office cooperated with a law enforcement investigation into
an individual who was allegedly involved in providing illegal performance enhancing substances
to professional athletes and others. At the request of law enforcement officials, I am unable to
provide further details about the investigation, or the cooperation of the Commissioner’s Office
with it, because the investigation is still ongoing.
