What is latest news on Barry Bonds indictment?

Similar questions: latest news Barry Bonds indictment.

Still Pending Bonds lawyers have filed to have the charges dropped, stating that the questions were misleading and erroneous during the grand jury testimony. Just as of yesterday (02/14/08), there was a story that was reported that there was misinformation in the indictment that was released last year. The information in the indictment stated that Bonds had failed a drug test in November 2001, which would have been just 1 month after he broke the single season HR record.

However the test was actually one that was failed in November of the previous year. At this time there isn't any additional information. There is no trial date set, and the two sides will likely be arguing for some time to come before we actually see a trial begin.

Government urges judge to keep Bonds indictment on track Government urges judge to keep Bonds indictment on trackBy PAUL ELIAS Associated Press WriterArticle Launched: 02/14/2008 04:57:19 PM PSTSAN FRANCISCO—A typo in court papers regarding Barry Bonds filed late Thursday by federal prosecutors touched off a brief tempest over the mistaken belief that he failed a drug test in November 2001, one month after breaking the home run record. In fact, the government meant to reference a previously reported November 2000 failed drug test, U.S. attorney spokesman Josh Eaton said. That drug test was included in the indictment unsealed last year, when prosecutors said the test was for a player they called "Barry B."The mistake prompted at least one erroneous report that was quickly posted to Web sites around the country.

The filing amounted to federal prosecutors defending their questioning of Bonds before a grand jury, and urging a judge to keep the slugger's perjury prosecution on track. Bonds had argued that the questions posed to him by prosecutors were ambiguous and confusing. He demanded that the five-count indictment charging him with lying to a grand jury be tossed out.

Bonds has pleaded not guilty. In the filing, prosecutors said Bonds was specifically told before he began testifying in 2003 that he could consult with his lawyers or ask for a question rephrased if he ever got confused."Bonds never said he was confused or asked the prosecutor to rephrase a question," the government's filing stated. Instead, they said their questions left no doubt that they were asking Bonds about his drug use and his relationship with personal trainer Greg Anderson.

Prosecutors said "as the evidence at trial will show, each count charges that Bonds repeatedly lied in answering the same question or questions on the same subject matter."The matter will be the subject of a court hearing Feb. 29. In a related proceeding, Anderson and BALCO founder Victor Conte are expected in court Friday for a hearing on whether they can keep all the evidence prosecutors turned over to them from the government's investigation of steroids in sports. Federal prosecutors want the two convicted steroids dealers to return the documents.

The latest news on Bonds... Basically the government case is continuing. It seems likely he will go to jail for perjury charges. Yesterday the government produced positive test results for Bonds back to the year 2000.

Baseball was not testing back then but Bonds was with Balco at the time and they were his steroids provider. Well Balco had Bonds taking drug tests to see if they could hide or mask the steroids and when the government raided Balco a few years back they got the records of failed drug tests for Bonds. These failed drug test occurred before Bonds had testified in 2003 under oath that he never used.

A good bit of evidence. Basically the case is just continuing and the government is building their case. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/15/BASMUNN9R.DTL ChicagoTRS's Recommendations Game of Shadows: Barry Bonds, BALCO, and the Steroids Scandal that Rocked Professional Sports Amazon List Price: $26.00 Used from: $5.95 Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 108 reviews) .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
