This is what bothers me:
"The U.S. Figure Staking Association will carry out the sanction. "

First, cant the AP spell right? :P Second, you think the USFSA would actually stick up for their skater.

Pathetic. This is more than LeGougne and Gailhaguet received for the Olympics. I can't believe that the USFSA would just step down and let this happen!

I can't believe they gave her a four year ban, just for refusing to take a drug test. And the worst part is that the USFSA is not even sticking up for her. :(
