Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.

So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.

And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

I lose respect for any organization that isn't willing to consider evidence other than what officials decide in the moment. It's basically just saying, "we don't really want to do a good job at part of our point for existing" plus a dash of ego being upset at being challenged. It's like zero tolerance policies at schools punishing victims as much as or more than bullies, just pure arrogant laziness disguised as "just following the rule we made up (so that we wouldn't have to think very hard about when we are wrong)".
