Bonds Indicted With Perjury

Barry Bonds, the San Francisco outfielder was held with perjury by the grand jury. Facts have been discovered that Bonds lied to the grand jury about denying the fact that he used a steroid such as the "cream". Bonds has repeatedly denied using performance-enhancing drugs with him knowing that they were. He was charged with lying when he asked about using steroids given to him by his personal trainer and childhood friend, Greg Anderson. Also charged with lying about Anderson never injecting him with steroids. Bonds says that Anderson would never do such a thing because he knows how Barry feels about performing-enhancing drugs.

Barry came into the majors with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1986 as a slim, base stealing outfielder. By the late 1990s, he noticeably reached the weight of more than 240 pounds. His physical growth brought with it a magnificent power surge. Anderson was became the center of the attention with bonds indictment. He spent time in a federal detention centre for denying to testify to the grand jury about Bonds steroids usage. Bonds has been tied with BALCO, a know producer of steroids. Athletes like Jason Giambi and Gary Sheffield have been connected to BALCO. Gary Sheffield has testified to the grand jury that Bonds introduced him to BALCO.
Knowing facts like this really lead me against Bonds. I believe Bonds is guilty with perjury. Therefore he should do time for lying to the grand jury.
