Six medals, four of them gold, were stripped from the US team in the 2000 Olympics within the past 8 months.
The men's 4x400 gold medal was also taken away due to Antonio Pettigrew's doping violation. Michael Johnson and twins Alvin and Calvin Harrison ran in the final, while Jerome Young and Angelo Taylor featured in the preliminaries. Three of the four runners from the relay final have been tainted by drugs (obviously not Johnson, but he gave back his medal saying he felt cheated).
Five medals from Marion Jones were given back as well.
