He might be a Grade A weapon but he’s not on trial, merely a witness. I can understand why the defence would wish to discredit him professionally, but to air his private life in public is going too far I think.
Agreed, and it’s not as if they’ve produced actual evidence to discredit him. The defence approach to Sutton appears to be:
*Someone else anonymously told us you were injecting testosterone.
*Lots of rumours say you were a doper. Have we got any actual evidence, well no, but that Lance bloke passed every drug test and just look at him!
*There’s a file in the Daily Mail’s secret vault which suggests you told fibs. We can’t get the file, but someone said it was there, so there you go.
*<Loudly in direction of reporters> You can’t get it up, mate!
And this isn’t someone who has made any actual allegations against her client, just someone who has been dragged into Freeman’s latest version of events as to why he had a stackload of testogel land on his desk, and had the temerity to deny it.
