How do you excuse a fraud that investigations did not find find substantiated? The allegations of fraud in sports, the marathon, the fund raising, and the thesis do not hold up to evidence.
'Its inquiry found citation defects but did not uphold plagiarism, concluding that the problems were caused by “honest and reasonable error”'
I'm interested in other documentation countering the claims in this article, not a statement reiterating that he was accused of fraud with no justification.
EDIT: If you still want to believe he ran 30 marathons in 35 days, I wish you all the best in your continued commitment to that belief.
It's sad that he did not get the therapy he needed.
