Barry Bonds has been indicted on federal perjury and obstruction of justice charges. Investigators say that Bonds lied while on the stand about not taking performance-enhancing drugs. Part of the indictment reads as follows:
"During the criminal investigation, evidence was obtained including positive tests for the presence of anabolic steroids and other performance enhancing substances for Bonds and other athletes."
At this point, it is unlikely that Bonds will return as a player to baseball. Four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice could result in up to 30 years in prison (5 years for each perjury count, 1 for the obstruction of justice)
