We have no idea if she willfully cheated, but that hasn't stopped anyone making accusations and assumptions for two years. She is guilty until proven innocent. Given that it is a trace amount of a common drug that seems to offer little benefit to an athlete, given such a short shelf life of the drug and knowing with certainty she would be tested when she finished on the podium at the Russian championships, a lot of it does not make any sense.
Athletes who had their urine swapped at Sochi certainly cheated we have proof of this, we have proof of a doping ring, but no proof that Kamila cheated just that she had a trace amount of this drug in her system, which could have got there any number of ways most likely contamination but Kamila's lawyers weren't able to prove this to a level that satisfied CAS.
I don't know if she's been badly represented. At that hastily convened hearing they did propose that she may have caught it from the grandfather's utensils. It seems obvious that this was just a theory put together with the 48 hours notice they had, obviously it would be impossible to prove Kamila was in Beijing, was no time to investigate, but offered this theory to CAS as a way of saying we don't know how it happened but she is close to someone who takes TMZ so it is how it could have happened, but until we investigate further we don't know. Somehow this got blown completely out of proportion into being the definitive theory, and the lawyers have continued down this path of contamination from the grandfather two years after first proposing. Maybe no-one genuinely knows how it got in her system, and this was the best theory they could offer.
In retrospect, the lawyers at the first hearing should not have said anything. Instead of offering a theory with no evidence. Say we have no idea how it got into her system until we investigate since the theory had no bearing on the initial decision made by CAS.
Also, the huge delay in relaying the result to her (WADA's were supposed to have returned this by mid-January but waited until the completion of the team event) meant she wasn't able to commence the investigation into how the drug got into her system until late February when it should have been taking place mid-January at the latest. What evidence was lost in this time, were CCTV recordings lost, were supplement bottles finished and thrown away? I really can't believe that this wouldn't be taken into account of the severity of the suspension. Given it is four year for a protected person no less, it seems it had no effect at all and WADA's lab's have zero responsibility or accountability. The only person held accountable is the child who was 15 at the time.
