“The Whole Thing Is a Crock of SH*T”

So says defense attorney Mark Geragos about the federal investigation into steroid use and distribution that led to the recent indictment of home run king Barry Bonds. As outlined fairly persuasively in this recent article on Reason magazine’s website, Geragos appears to be right. The BALCO case appears to be yet another federal boondoggle in which the jack booted thugs prosecution feels compelled to justify having wasted years and millions dollars of tax payers money by indicting someon=e who committed no real crime fora derivative offense of perjury and obstruction in connection with the original fruitless investigation. Barry Bonds may be an unlikeable jackass. But that by no means excuses the ourageous lengths to which federal prosecutors have gone to vindicate this ridiculous investigation.
