Think of the implications. Lets say some has been or wannabe on the team goes all "Tyler Hamilton" on them, claiming he just can't live with himself with what he knows (translation: his career is in the tank or never got off the ground, everyone has forgotten about him, he craves the publicity, and he's a weaselly little snitch - you know, like Hamilton). So he goes to the press with the "real" story: Herriott and Wren intimidated the team into following along with their story, just like Armstrong.
So, what recourse would Kinkade then have? I think Kinkade would have all of the legal ammunition he needed to absolutely crush those guys in court, wouldn't he? Would the same folks screaming for his head today scream for the other's heads if that came to pass?
