If half of what Landis says is true, there are going to be a bunch of guys sweating out the possibility of perjury charges when they are subpoenaed.

It wouldn't surprise me if one of them is wired and ends up having contemporary conversations with Lance where Lance incriminates himself and gets an obstruction charge.

There is no question that is what the prosecutor will try to do: threaten the other riders with perjury charges. SO far it appears they are holding tough (No rumors came out of Popo's interview with the feds even though they coordinated with the Carbinieri who supposedly found drugs in pop's apt, which popo denies). One of the interesting things from Landis' claims is that he says he never personally saw LA use durgs. IOW, even if Landis is truthful, and LA was doping, Landis only knows by inference and circumstance. This will make it harder for other guys to directly implicate LA if they never actually saw it themselves.
