This is what we (Jamaicans) need...our press and our experts to be more publicly vocal about the nepotism and the unfair admonishment of punishment of drug offences to smaller countries by WADA.
Maria Sharapova vs Yohan Blake, et al

In 2009 a young Yohan Blake, Marvin Anderson, Lansford Green, Allodin Fothergill and Sherri-Ann Brooks bought some supplements online. The company claimed it was WADA certified. A few months after they tested positive for Methylexanamine which was not on the banned list then, but WADA claimed it was biologically and structurally similar to Tauminoheptane that was on the banned list.
Methylexanamine is said to increase the flow of adrenaline, but adrenaline is a hormone produced naturally by the response of the hypothalamus (brain) during the running process. Dr Peter Russell and I went through 100 years of scientific data trying to tell WADA that there was no real science linking Methylexanamine to Tauminoheptane then, and furthermore, it was not on the 2008/2009 banned list. At one stage I got exhausted trying to put the data together to exonerate Blake, et al. I said to Peter then I was tired and wanted out, and I remember Peter saying to me these are poor upcoming Jamaican athletes and history will exonerate us and them.
