'Was I deceitful here and there to protect some doctors and protect this and that? 'Of course I was.’
An Olympic champion was found to have faked end-stage’s most successful Olympic showjumper and has been embroiled in a £400,000 lawsuit over three horses he sold in 2010.
The rider, who earned more than £800,000 in 2007 alone, missed the Olympics in Tokyo and retired in 2022 in order to focus on his health.Lamaze was initially diagnosed with brain cancer in 2017 But now it has been revealed he submitted fraudulent documents relating to his condition to delay a court hearing as part of a £400,000 lawsuit against him.
The document cited medical issues – but there were no medical records attached – just photos of his disfigured face following brain surgery. Now Danson has resigned from the case representing Lamaze and last week said: ‘Eric is very sick, but maybe not with cancer.’ But Justice Hurtz said: ‘Mr Lamaze attempted to perpetrate a fraud on the court by filing three forged letters, which falsely purport to be medical reports regarding Mr Lamaze’s dire medical condition.
