Biography

He also competed at the 2004 Olympics in the men's coxed eight and at the 2008 Olympics in the men's coxless fours. On 29 April 2016 it was announced that he had been suspended after a positive doping test.[2]

On 14 November 2016, the National Anti-Doping Court, presided over by lawyer Luigi Fumagalli, declares not proven the existence of an intentional violation of the anti-doping code and recognizes the athlete was unaware to commit an illicit, thus restating the disqualification period[3][4] On 8 February 2017, the Athlete presents to the Public Prosecutor of Rome Court a complaint against unknown person.[5]

On 3 October 2018 the single presiding Judge of Terni Court, Dr Fornaro, delivered a not-guilty verdict (full-acquittal) because the fact does not constitute a violation. The Judge established that Mornati did not commit any criminal offence and his ingestion was unconscious, involuntary and not aimed at altering sports performance. Mornati's first declaration was "I am feeling relieved that my good faith and my integrity have been recognized in front of the Judge. The whole story has embittered me a lot, because I have been focusing my 20 years sport career and my whole life on honesty and upright morals, never accepting unfair behavior. I am happy this sentence highlights my innocence".[6]
