" It didn't -- executive director of the new York university school law center on the administration of criminal law he wrote that article. He joins us now the good morning and thanks so much for being with us. Here thank you you tend did what Alex did was wrong but the manner in which we found out was worse."
" Our depth right -- I think the first the ball on the new meaning that the spoke to release that information and who we -- our. All in the law enforcement community and people who were aware of the court order inept -- discount. That prohibited leaking the information. These people on law and personnel. And or what are aware of the court order saying that the information can be released than they committed caught."
" And would the motivation for a law enforcement personnel if in fact that is who it was did the leaking. Would be doing it for no other purpose than to have embarrassed Alex."
" Well it's hard to Spain not expect speculating what they're motivation was but it seemed like compare meant he would probably a likely motivation. They there's a hundred and where people on the whipped. And is the only name that circuit and it seemed like targeted at third to embarrass them."
" And I think there are a lot of people here who wants the 103. Other -- sleeping. These so it shouldn't be that Alex stands in front of these other cheats."
" The -- and I'm a baseball fan and I who would like to know. On the other appeared in three games I'd like baseball to clean up the ball problem and rectify that everybody who used -- that they can't interact and to put all the kind of but the question here that operating it whether the information about Alex Rodriguez. Individually wouldn't release in violation of law in violation of a work order and if that the eighth and at first and may have committed a federal crime. Are getting it in it wrong I'd be happy at the baseball and you have all if you go away and -- everybody exposed that we can all move on that the question."
" We're taking of a phone calls for Anthony Garko -- executive director of the new York university school law center on the administration of criminal law. Wrote an article this past week it appeared in the daily news titled A-Rod is cheap but whoever out of him is a criminal what are your thoughts about this -- how how serious is this -- you you've stated it's a federal crime."
" Well -- that every federal crime -- here I'm not. Saying that it is on par with some other federal crimes that are -- you know. -- and violent crime -- obviously. But the integrity of the investigatory -- that -- important people. Who are."
" We named -- that investigation. Have a right not be exposed connected to a criminal conduct in the last. The government has been good -- chart that."
" We ate it came out here with respect that output because -- not that he's not part with any wrongdoing that it that it -- get out by."
" He did it and felt. Get beat out it and without at the tool that he would you do it wrong -- usually have."
" How does the judicial system go go go about trying to in insure against this type of thing happening in the future. And I'm sure Tony this happens every day. In matters far more serious than baseball."
" Well it's unfortunate does happen I I think one of the most common an example. Is the information leaked out Valerie Plame it would come which resulted in -- would be going to trial."
" her career. Right yeah."
" As a CIA operative that you know I think we all agree that is not public policy question that more serious commitment that the the real important question to baseball and to end. You know that that court system goes about trying to stop the kind of being in the way -- here. It had court ordered that people are supposed to abide by as a rule about secretly that he spoke to abide and the Department of Justice has rules. About a secret and private -- Debate on public information that people -- exposed to abide by and if the people leaked that information subject to those rule. That they committed a -- by -- now is it possible that somebody else. I beat this information and -- have -- something like that happened before in the Balco case were trying to -- a defense lawyer. Who released it not a government person about -- actually can not be guilty to a crime. But it possible that someone not subject to these rules released isn't it rumored that it with a player something like that that what company predicted the rules laid up at all."
" Do you would you like to see. From a year for your your standpoint of expertise would you like to see the other 103 names released."
" Well I wouldn't like that speed up other topic in three -- released in the manner that Alex Rodriguez whose name was literally and you know that would. Be border violating in my mind of the of the rules of I think secretly I would of liked. Between baseball and the players union idea what it's a long time ago and -- that we would have found out all that stuff them and at all to become public and we wouldn't it be."
" Heading out who will be. And criminal investigations in the light. I'd also like the 130 players step up but it made it without having to be -- hurt but I doubt that it happened."
" Do -- Terry and Princeton, New Jersey NW FA and talkin' baseball of Anthony Barco good morning and welcome to the show."
" Well thank -- much that I just. But yet very interesting are. I don't think that the other game -- I should be released because that. You know that would be a violation secret between that patient based on the players' union. Or helpful thing that. God I agree with -- With the legal experts that it's really shame that this -- this one week. He could give a -- because -- which the the the top pick in the first one but more importantly my point of view I think people. Be much sanctimonious about this because I really do leave that up all. -- players. Probably that I didn't even if they were cheating they probably knew that this was going to help strengthen them and and was part of the conditioning program that they were they that they were under. And I think that. I wish will be more concerned about striped -- in baseball at the umpire bill -- don't want to while. You law poll -- and the people that vote baseball not yet. In the end and corked bats and things like that to me is more likely cheater."
" Terry -- thank you so much for that war what is. Who really we have to make that distinction here Anthony and and that is that is I'm Alex was the victim. And he was I and it's that that -- to use here but he is out alone in front of the other 103 were still behind a curtain but he has media access. What happens to somebody. Who doesn't have media access to defend himself can't -- one ESPN."
" That's that's absolutely right I mean I talked about that it might -- we -- a lot he -- a --"
" Arc -- but not superstar enough people. And -- begin with it."
" 48 hours available to the ear near the end with Peter Gammons independent self and frankly even bat is that really -- effective means for the that the L. Spot out. Who is. Victimized by a leak like that really at no mean at Vanderbilt and even someone -- well known but while number -- there he would even as well equipped to themselves and."
" out eight and that's why we require cold it made in court where people can get the ball."
" You Eddie in New York getting good morning and welcome to WFAN talkin' baseball."
" Good morning in particular workers particularly cool. I think a lot of that should should be handled before opening day because the -- well it is I think that these. Some one way or -- something could be done with a hundred read people. Either. As is that we'll we'll probably won't have. Happen but allow them. People to come forward and and see if they they can -- that they I pitted and so -- and -- on it otherwise I think it should be. -- it was they can be benched because that's something that in my stomach it looked uncomfortable. Even though. It was it was ruled that Alex with mismatches in this it's it's got to go one way or the other what youthful."
" Thanks Eddie what it would need to -- that --"
" Yeah I like at that I'd I'd like to the all. All that behind at the baseball fans that like they have the other 103 players come forward and it may. They did indeed it was wrong and everybody who who cheated and -- steroid use while enhancing drug -- made it."
" Maybe it'll come forward and we could learn about how widespread it once in baseball however but -- that they needed to do compete."
" We -- that I can that be are sort of an organized effort can that -- orchestrated."
" And stick it. B I mean the players union and neatly into all happy to be I didn't happen -- willing to do that really apathetic I don't want to. But there at the -- problem go away but dump the -- is not to have it selectively leaked and targeting individual players. At a pull out one time."
" And I don't know what's worse effect did this happen ended now we learn about Alex. And -- and many are shattered about that especially little kids but. That's one but Alex -- come to admit that in fact what was leaked woods through my goodness I can't imagine win a leak leads to information that is false."
" Absolutely need somebody who is subject to all week it doesn't really have to mean that it and the like that Alex Rodriguez can."
" PRD candidate and themselves. And even that is up only effective don't beat kind of out agents and those will be made in -- room where people can pocket and themselves."
" Or -- they should have come out but don't you I'd you know at a collective agreement I the players and --"
" Thank you so much Anthony for a being wear this Anthony Barco has written in the New York Daily News this week -- this editorial that was headlined A-Rod is a cheap. But whoever out of him is a criminal. He is the executive director of the new York university School -- Law as senator on the administration of criminal law and your nice to join us this morning and I thank you so much."
" Thank you had to like what it."
