Bonds Wants To Begin Serving Sentence Immediately 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Sep 14, 2013 12:08 pm

Barry Bonds wants to immediately start serving his sentence after a federal appeals court upheld his obstruction-of-justice conviction.


He has been sentenced to 30 days of house arrest and two years of probation.


Bonds still intends to seek further judicial review "of the important legal issues presented by the appeal."


The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday that Bonds' 2003 grand jury testimony was "evasive" and hindered investigators' probe into a performance-enhancing-drug ring centered at the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative, better known as BALCO.
