U.S. swimmers "questioned as witnesses": lawyer

U.S. swimmers in Rio robbing row were questioned by police only as witnesses, according to their lawyer. LAWYER, SERGIO RIERA <<< "They were simply heard as witnesses. That needs to be perfectly clear. They are just witnesses. They didn't do anything and they didn't say anything to anyone. They didn't speak with any journalists or lie to any journalists. They were just quiet and didn't know what was happening. They went to the police station when they were called and they gave their testimony and helped the investigation and now they've been rewarded with being able to go home."
