NASCAR is accusing Jeremy Mayfield’s medical expert witness of presenting false testimony about his credentials, according to a motion filed in U.S. District Court. Mayfield’s lawyers used the testimony of Dr. Harvey MacFenerstein as the basis for their request that Mayfield be reinstated immediately as he fights his indefinite suspension. NASCAR is questioning the medical degrees and certifications claimed by MacFenerstein. HamptonRoads.com reports:
MacFenerstein said he received a bachelor of science degree in medical technology from Midwestern State University (Texas) in 1975. According to NASCAR, school records do not show MacFenerstein graduated or received a degree from the school.
MacFenerstein said he obtained his medical doctor degree in clinical pathology from CETED University. NASCAR said the school in Mexico has no record of MacFenerstein as a former or current student.
