the federal government doesn't have anything approaching sufficient evidence to convict bonds. are you [censored] kidding me? why would they have kept his trainer in jail all that time trying to get him to crack? do you really think bonds didn't talk to his lawyer before he testified and say, "if they decide to try and prosecute me for this, will it stick? is this perjury?" does anyone REALLY think these charges are legit?

if you do please PM me with your screen name so i can change your title to 'dumbest [censored] hick ever'

Your level of ignorance of how the federal criminal justice system works is astounding.

Before you decide to equate the federal prosecutor in this case to that local hick Nifong in the Duke lacrosse case, I suggest you do a bit of research on the DOJ's conviction rate. The feds don't indict unless they have more than a reasonable certainty of evidence to convict.

That certainly does not mean they automatically win. The indictment does not lay all their cards on the table.

I don't know whether he's guilty or not; I do know the feds aren't simply throwing stuff at the wall to see if anything sticks.
