The childhood aspirational dream to become Superman, can’t be killed obviously.

We've known of sample swaps by corrupt or bought officials for some time. And similarly, we've known about DNA as a means of positively identifying paternity or ID. Every athlete needs to have an DNA sample collected and held somewhere not available to sports officials but made available in circumstances such as these to positively identify whose sample belongs to who.

It's simply not good enough for cheats to impugn the reputation and good name of honourable athletes by secretly switching their clean samples for tainted ones. Or have compromised or dishonest officials do it for them.

DNA records would end this forever and allow the honest compactor to avoid trail by media and flawed rules. Even now, a DNA test would decide if the A sample was indeed Peters! But no, we had to go through this endless speculation, BS and suspicion, while he/she waits for fair play judgement.

Me? I'd subject a few folks to an interview accompanied by covertly deployed, unbeatable space age lie detection!

Alan, the only unbeatable lie detector test is very old and weighs several grams made from lead....
