whatever happened to 'the feds have a 90-something percent conviction rate' thing...Bonds...Clemens....what a waste of taxpayer $they just blew 2 big cases in the last 2 weeks, the EDWARDS, and now THE CLEMONS case.

ERIC HOLDER should not have allowed either one of these 2 cases to be prosecuted. the only way those 2 could have ever been convicted is if they didn't have enough money to get good legal representation, both were multi-millionaires. they should wait to go after people that can't afford good lawyer's so they can win their cases and stop wasting taxpayer money on marginal cases against better attorney's than what they have.

just heard that Roger Clemens spent 3 Milliion on Lawyers for both trials.

That would be roughly about 2% of his lifetime earnings from Baseball.

Good for him JR glad he could afford it. Consider that compared to the money blown by the Feds. They put FOUR years into his investigation. FOUR years, think about how much taxpayer money that cost. After the mistrail they should have had the commonsense to give up.
