AP-NY--Canadian Doctor,122
July sentencing for assistant to sports doctor
Eds: APNewsNow.
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Prosecutors in the United States have again
put off sentencing Canadian sports Dr. Anthony Galea's assistant
because they say she's still cooperating in the investigation of
her boss.
Mary Anne Catalano was scheduled to be sentenced Monday, but a
federal judge in Buffalo has agreed to reschedule it to July 25.
Catalano was arrested while bringing medical equipment and
pharmaceuticals into the United States. She pleaded guilty last
summer to lying to border agents.
In postponing the sentencing, the U.S. Attorney's office says in
court filings that Catalano's not done cooperating against Galea,
who's charged on both sides of the border with allegedly treating
athletes with unapproved drugs. He's yet to enter a plea on the
U.S. charges and denies any wrongdoing.
