The IOC has launched an investigation.
This could be huge. What with the Chinese gov’t apparently providing a fraudulent passport as proof of her age…some very big heads could roll.

More likely, some very little heads – the athletes’. The Chinese will deny and deny, and if they can no longer do that, they will simply blame the athelete, or the parents, for providing false documents.

Total hijack, but am I the only one who whenever he sees the thread hovering up there like it has for the past week or so sings the thread title to the tune of the Planet Express created version of Single Female Lawyer from the When Aliens Attack episode?

Just to add, The Telegraph’s story also includes the cached evidence.
It seems to be over. Nobody actually expected the IOC to take action against China did they?
Here 's a link of a guy who found and documented He Kexin’s birthdate to be 1-1-1994 in China’s own database, before it was mysteriously taken down.
It took 8 years for the US track gold to be taken away because the truth took a while to come out. I expect the same from this.
Well, maybe the IOC wanted to get the hell out of China before they got put into jail with the 78 year old protesters. But I’m not betting on justice. If one person cheats, it is awful, if a government does it, no problem.
