NY 'Daily News': With Marion Jones Busted, Feds Now Target Barry Bonds

Posted
By: E&P Staff "While Marion Jones slips into sports infamy, federal prosecutors have reset their sights on their next target: Barry Bonds," the New York Daily News reports today.

"Sources familiar with the investigation into perjury and tax evasion charges against the all-time home run leader told the Daily News that the U.S. Attorney's office in San Francisco remains determined to indict Bonds by the time the grand jury expires in January.

"The grand jury investigating Bonds was due to expire in July, but prosecutors were granted a six-month extension while they pursued charges against Jones and other targets related to the BALCO steroid-trafficking scandal.

"The grand jury stopped meeting after the extension was granted, and is expected to resume shortly."
