Federal agents found themselves busy yesterday raiding the home of Barry Bonds's ex-trainer Greg Anderson (and leaving everyone with a very wordy headline). Anderson is accused of delivering PEDs including steroids and HGH to the slugger. His journey included a long stint in jail while mum about Barry Bonds's drug use. This raid indicates continued interest in Anderson's role, and perhaps unrest about the Govt case against Bonds.
Madeleine Gestas and her daughter Nicole Anderson, the trainer's wife, are the target of a tax investigation that the lawyer for Greg Anderson said is aimed at pressuring the trainer to testify at Bonds' upcoming trial.
Bonds, baseball's career home run leader and a seven-time MVP, has pleaded not guilty to charges he lied to a federal grand jury in 2003 when he denied knowingly using performance-enhancing drugs.
"Even the mafia spares the women and children," said Anderson's lawyer, Mark Geragos.
Anderson's lawyer takes blame credit for the raid:
Geragos said he believes the raid was in response to his refusal to tell prosecutors whether Anderson would testify. Geragos said he ignored a letter faxed to his Los Angeles office Monday by prosecutors that asked about Anderson's plans for the Bonds' trial.
Anderson served more than a year in prison for refusing to testify against Bonds before a federal grand jury. Geragos said that on the day after her husband was released from prison, Anderson's wife received a so-called target letter informing her that she was under investigation.
Geragos said Anderson received a government subpoena last week demanding his testimony at the March 2 trial. Geragos declined to say whether Anderson would testify. If Anderson refuses, he could be sent to prison again.
However, other forces may be in play here -- to tighten the noose around the Bonds thickened neck:
The New York Times, citing an anonymous source, reported Thursday that prosecutors have evidence that links Bonds to the use of performance-enhancing drugs other than the "cream" and the "clear" — the designer substances that have become synonymous with the Bonds case.
A person who has reviewed the prosecution's evidence said that authorities detected anabolic steroids in urine samples linked to Bonds, according to the Times.
Hasn't this guy been under arrest? I cannot believe they are only taking this action now. I am no fan of Barry Bonds but c'mon and finish this legal action already.

Geragos said neither he nor his client have any obligation to answer the government’s demands that Anderson announce whether he intends to testify.

in the "World of Warcraft," "earth fission" media group activities, visits, media reporters to Blizzard Executive Vice President FRANKPEARCE ask for anti-addiction expert TAO open view. FRANKPEARCE said: "The TAO open the human family paladin, dwarf priests." Sudden burst of laughter inside. Rogue martial arts will be invincible, the gods can not stop ~
