DOPING CONTROVERSY
Prior to the 2003 Pan American Games, she tested positive for the banned steroid clostebol and was suspended for two years. She declared her innocence, claiming a doctor had applied a healing cream to a cut she received during a hair removal process. She was subsequently cleared of the offence by Brazil's Superior Sports Tribunal but the IAAF appealed the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport [CAS] and it was decided the original suspension should stand. Maggi had a child in late 2004 and returned to international competition at the 2006 South American Championships where she won the long jump title. (AP, 02 Oct 2003, Track and Field News September 2003, BBC, 22 Mar 2004)
