Sherone Simpson reacts to positive drug test - Klas Station

Statement by Sherone Simpson This is a very difficult time for me. I was notified on July 14, 2013 that my urine sample taken at the National Senior Championship, June 21, 2013 after the 100m finals returned a positive analytical finding for a stimulant, oxilofrine (methylsynephrine). As an athlete, I know I am responsible for whatever goes into my body. I would not intentionally take an illegal substance of any form into my system. I want to sincerely say to my family (especially my parents, grandparents and siblings), Paul Doyle (agent), MVP track club, fellow athletes, former sponsors and the rest of Jamaica that l am deeply sorry for any hurt or embarrassment this positive test may have caused. Thanks to all who have been supporting me, I really appreciate it at this time. My team and I will try to do everything we can to get this issue dealt with as best as we can. -Sherone Simpson   Source : KLAS  STATION FACEBOOK
