SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Barry Bonds has pleaded not guilty to 15felony charges of lying to a federal grand jury about his
performance-enhancing drug use.
Baseball's home run king pleaded not guilty to similar
accusations in December, but a judge ordered prosecutors to rewrite
the indictment. The new indictment includes no new allegations.
Bonds was re-arraigned Friday on 15 felony counts of lying under
oath. Prosecutors say he lied when he told a grand jury
investigating the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in 2003 that he
never knowingly took steroids or other performance-enhancing drugs.
Bonds also is scheduled to appear later Friday at a status
conference where a trial date might be set.

There’s just not enough supporting evidence if you ask me. I’m not even a sports fan, but I read a little about this before. I think it’s just some jealous players, and friends, that are mad cause he made it further than they did. It’s their word against his.
