Looking back through other releases of drug hearings the term "pleaded guilty" and "Found Guilty" are used.
Without the transparency of a fully minuted hearing report (as per norm for Australian hearings) I presume "found guilty" follows from a not guilty plea.
The report for the LEW case says "found guilty".

He mightn't have known what it was and believe me he is paying for it in more way's than you will ever know. And knowing the type of person he is he probably pleaded guilty and manned up and took the penalty .
Have whoever you want on but don't ever have yourself on
So Barry has been found guilty. Are we, Joe Public, entitled to further information from the panel in regards as to why the boldenone levels exceeded the prescribed acceptable levels and/or is there any information forthcoming that would explain how the excessive levels came to be in the horse.
As Greg stated, if Barry was the type of bloke to put his hand up, has he admitted to administering the prohibited substance himself? And if that was the case, is this why he only got six months.
I am not hanging the bloke, got too much respect for him. But to remove or confirm suspicion it would be more helpful for all concerned, if more information was made available. Or would HRNSW rather keep their cards close to their chest until after Mach Wipers case is dealt with? Too many unanswered questions floating around.
