Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.
So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.
And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

Because the only way it matters is the PR afterwards if 'caught', and even then everybody knows that everyone is cheating in some small and hidden ways that leagues can't really catch it all, and only really can go after the blatant stuff and/or stuff that "looks bad" to normal people (see: doping, despite every single person you see on the field, court, pitch being genetic freaks of nature to begin with). Cheating and bending the rules in a way that they clearly weren't meant to bend is just a part of sports. If you follow a major motorsport, I can tell you that not a single team has put a legal car on the grid, in fact I would be shocked if someone did put a fully legal car on the grid.
It's a large part of why I laugh at e-sports followers when they act shocked and appalled that someone would cheat when anyone could've told them that its just a natural part of being a sport.
