The prosecutor's files state: "In conclusion it can be stated that the accused, Ullrich, used the doping system of the Spanish doctor Fuentes to prepare himself for his competitions with performance-enhancing substances and methods in breach of contract."
Whenever Ullrich made public statements about the doping allegations he portrayed himself as the victim of a conspiracy. When he announced his retirement from professional cycling in February 2007 in Hamburg's Intercontinental Hotel, he accused police and journalists of being sloppy in their investigations against him.
