The Mitchell Report is a result of former senator George Mitchell's investigation into the use of anabolic steroids and human growth hormone (HGH) in Major League Baseball. It's a 409 page report that details the history of performance-enhancing drugs in sports and names a lot of athletes allegedly connected with the drugs. Among these names are Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, and Miguel Tejada, among others.
The Mitchell Report also details Brian McNamee, a personal trainer who allegedly helped athletes acquire steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. Most notably, McNamee trained Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte. Pettitte has admitted to using HGH and has apologized for doing so. McNamee claims to have injected Clemens with anabolic steroids, which Clemens denies. Clemens was recently indicted by a federal judge for, among others, lying to Congress. There will be much more on Clemens, McNamee, and others to come!
Whatever happened to this? Wasn't Clemens found guilty of lying to the grand jury? How was this ever resolved?
ReplyDeleteClemens was indicted this summer and I think the trial continues in March or something.
