Sicko - The Emergency Room Visit

Barry Bonds became guilty of obstruction of justice but a jury failed to say the verdict on three other counts that the home run king lied to a grand jury in 2003 when he contradicted the accusation that he used steroids and human growth hormone.

Following a 12-day trial and almost four full days of deliberation, the jury could not reach all the votes and therfore, the messy end to a case that put the slugger in the spotlight for more than three years.

The case also defines the culmination of the federal investigation into the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative steroids ring. Federal prosecutors and the Justice Department will have to conclude whether to retry Bonds on the unresolved counts.
