@FitzE I believe so, yes. I have no skin in the game but I had heard that here or on other forums.
In Canada I understand an infamous “horse lover” was banned from Spruce Meadows .
The USEF does have written in their rules that a show management can refuse / ban entry to a person who has shown behavior against the management , property owner etc. It can be a challenge to find in the General Rules, but it is there.
Don’t most states have laws that a business or an entity can refuse admittance or service to anyone as well?
Eric Lamaze was banned from Spruce Meadows as well for a while. I can’t say for sure on the other sicko.
wow really?
Really what? Eric was banned for a period of time or the other sicko?
Him being banned from Spruce.
Ugh. I brain bleached that whole scenario. He was on this board for a bit – “defending himself.”
This reminds me of an email I received from one of our subs on a tender when his response to my email asking if he was going to price the roofing in a project of if we needed to do it. His response was yes. 
“Him” being which sicko? LOL Eric or the perv?
I thought I had. Going to have to find the brain bleach again since it was brought up. If I had black nail polish I’d be throwing it out. 
oh I thought the sicko was a she 
wrong person lol
I
meant Eric sorry. Obviously he was banned to EC and FEI but I didn’t know about that!
I can’t remember his poor stallion’s name – but he was a decent horse! Glad he wound up somewhere better!
I’m guessing the “sicko” you are talking about is Doug Spink, who had Capone the stallion.
Eric Lamaze was banned from Spruce in the 1990s after he got caught on a drug test for taking cocaine.
Gotcha. But now I’m trying to think of female sickos! LOL
Eric was banned for a while after he regained his EC standing but he was allowed for team events, eventually the Southerns backed down on his ban.
That’s the one!!
Thank you Blugal. That’s the sicko.
I’m going to search for the brain bleach again. I’m sure it’s around here somewhere…
At least he’s dead. We attended the same college, though he started after I graduated. Definitely a weirdo…
Going back to how women are treated vs. men in the sport…
FEI suspends Charlotte Dujardin for one year: ‘This is a message to everyone’
This is beyond baffling to me. Literally his case could not be any more similar (except it’s actually probably worse). They have set a precedent time to follow up. Do better FEI.
His is way worse, to me. His was systematic - many many horses got the wrath of his hand. Hers appears to be a one-off.
Agreed and FEI hasn’t even started with him. One certainly wonders why when they went after her immediately.
At least, she wisely made a statement at the beginning and withdrew from everything.
