According
to the New York Daily News, the same federal investigators that exposed
Marion Jones this week -- and insured no future ambiguity on her legendary medal scoop in 2000 -- have their sights set again on the big fish, the head honcho, the walking symbol of steroid use gone wrong. That's right: they're going back after
Barry Bonds.
Investigators received a six-month deadline extension on the Bonds indictment to put the finishing touches on Jones' case, but are apparently pursuing Barry once again.
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. "Once they're finished with (Jones), then it's Bonds," an attorney familiar with the case said.
The feds don't believe Bonds. Except for two brief respites, Anderson has been in prison since July 2006 for refusing to testify against his longtime friend.
