Nonexistent product was blamed by Melky Cabrera for his positives

It happens often that when athletes test positive for any banned medications, they try to prove that they have never used any banned drug intentionally. They are looking for various ways to manifest that they are not guilty. They do a lot in order to escape from suspensions and/or other sanctions. Here is a case.
The professional baseball player Melky Cabrera tested positive for testosterone. Of course, he was sentenced to a 50-game suspension. Like other sportspersons he decided to find a way to prove his innocence and avoid the suspension.
Many doping sportspersons who are caught claim that they have used a dietary supplement that resulted in positive for certain banned substance. However several athletes may have used fake dietary supplements, numerous sportspersons use steroids and choose this way of defense because it works in many situations.
Thus, Melky Cabrera claimed that he had administered a dietary supplement that caused his positive for testosterone. Actually, it was a lie. Trying to prevent the 50-game suspension, he also created a web site and posted a fictitious product and advertisements which promoted selling it. The supplement didn’t exist in reality. It was just a hoax of Melky Cabrera and his associates in order to defend the professional baseball player.
Juan Nunez, a paid consultant for Athletes’ Career Enhanced and Secured Incorporated (ACES), created the web site.
But the lie turned out to be unsuccessful. The MLB exposed Melky Cabrera and Juan Nunez. Thus, the baseball player was enforced to serve the suspension.
The ACES was also troubled. Since Juan Nunez has been a consultant for ACES, the agency and Seth and Sam Levinson were suspected of involving in the hoax. But these individuals affirmed that they were not implicated in the creation of the site and the lie which was thought out by Melky Cabrera and Juan Nunez. Juan Nunez also confirmed that Seth and Sam Levinson had not been implicated in this defense.
The case is still investigated by the Food and Drug Administration. It is unclear yet whether other persons would be also prosecuted and sanctioned for the lie.
