Should Former Overseer of Probe
Into Bonds Offer Commentary?
Lots of lawyers are talking with the media about the criminal charges recently brought against Major League Baseball's career home-run leader Barry Bonds following an investigation about alleged steroid use. But one lawyer's quotes have been raising eyebrows.
Kevin Ryan, the former U.S. attorney in San Francisco, oversaw much of the steroids investigation involving Mr. Bonds, but left the office in February. He told the New York Times that his former deputies would call to testify anyone connected to Mr. Bonds who appeared in front of the grand jury. "They'll throw everything into it," Mr. Ryan said, saying he felt there was almost enough evidence to indict Mr. Bonds in the summer of 2006. Mr. Ryan was also quoted in New York's Daily News saying that Mr. Bonds's legal team should ratchet down its aggressive rhetoric directed at the government.
