A federal judge has barred prosecutors from using three steroid test results and other key evidence in Barry Bonds’ trial set to start in March 2 because personal trainer Greg Anderson’s will not testify to validate the tests. The judge had said she was troubled by the admissibility of the test results because prosecutors couldn’t conclusively tie them to Bonds. (Anderson already spent a year in jail for refusing to testify.)
The Government may call Jason Giambi, Jeremy Giambi, Randy Velarde, Bobby Estalella, Marvin Bernard, Armando Rios, and NFL’s Larry Izzo to testify that they knew what they were taking at BALCO was illegal. Bonds has maintained that he did not know the substances Anderson gave him personally were illegal. It’s possible one of these players has more info, but considering all of those players have cut deals with the prosecutors to avoid jail-time, who knows what they would say?
Kimberly Bell, Bonds’ ex-whatever, will also give a tearful testimony, that Bonds cheated on his taxes and admitted using steroids.
Kimberly Bell has since appeared in Playboy, was paid for TV and newspaper interviews, and has sold a book claiming to have inside info as Barry Bonds’ mistress.
Be sure to visit the DailySkew for baseball news and Barry Bonds trial updates. Rest assured, we will NOT be neutral- we feel Barry Bonds is getting a RAW DEAL. We hope he is found NOT GUILTY, and eventually SUES Major League Baseball for lost wages and damaged reputation. We also hope he EXPOSES the prosecutor and Government for creating a WITCH-HUNT and LEAKING evidence and anonymous tests. How can Bonds even get a fair trial when the Government leaked grand jury testimony?

1) Be careful with the bid-ask spread on the individual bonds.
2) You may be better off with an ETF or mutual fund.
Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan were the best Bonds.
Sending in an undercover agent to spend time at a gym to try to make friends with the wife of a potential witness, in the hopes that the wife will tell her what the witness told her about someone? That’s pathetic for a perjury case.
Pathetic.
Bonds obviously lied in a highly publicized case. They want to make him pay for the lie. They want everyone to know he was made to pay for the lie. Seems rather simple and not shocking at all.
Period.
I would be happy to serve on that jury. ;-)
Barry Bonds being suspected of using steroids and lying about it was frontline news on NPR, CNN, ESPN, DrudgeReport, nightly local news casts, scrawled and discussed FOX, MCNBC, etc. and featured prominently on those networks’ websites. It was, mainstream news, not just backpage sports.
How the HELL did they find an untainted jury?
Our government has spent the last SIX years trying to build this case. They bullied Greg Anderson and his (now ex) wife, threatened her and her mother with tax evasion charges, sent a pregnant FBI agent undercover to befriend her to get info, and has spent millions of dollars to prosecute someone for statments made during a Grand Jury proceeding about putting something in his own body.
