The decision outraged U.S. Olympic and gymnastics officials, and led to a torrent of online abuse against both Chiles and Ana Barbosu, the Romanian athlete who ended up with the bronze.
If you’re a judge and a case comes across your desk involving a woman that was friends with your daughter in elementary school and stayed at your house for sleepovers, you recuse yourself.
Doesn’t matter that it’s been 20 years since you’ve seen her. Your memory of this person is a sweet little girl that meant a lot to your child. Your judgement is biased.
This man is actively working for the Romanian government. It’s a clear conflict of interest.
On his firms website, the Romanian government is a frequent client of his. And he’s been working with the Romanian government for the past ten years. The evidence you’re looking for is in the free article linked above.
Arbitrators are not always randomly assigned. It’s not like a judge, because arbitration is fundamentally based on the prior agreement of the parties. In ad hoc cases they are assigned I assume cuz of the time frame. But in regular cases usually each side picks an arbitrator they hope will be favorable to their position. Then the main arbitrator picks the head one. For single arbitrators the parties try to agree on one and if that is not possible they ask for one to be assigned based on certain criteria. I don’t know which cases you’re referring to but if it’s a 3 arbitrator panel it’s entirely possible that he was Romania’s pick.
The judge these conspirancy theories consider to be in Romania’s pocket wad also involved in trials agaonst Romania. They get randomly assigned.

You’ll need to provide proof he’s working for the Romanian government.
I totally second that!
