Court Overturns Barry Bonds' Obstruction Conviction","publishDate":1429737039,"format":"standard","headTitle":"News Fix | KQED News","labelTerm":{"term":6944,"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, April 22, 2015\u003c/strong>: Barry Bonds' obstruction of justice conviction was reversed Wednesday by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which ruled his meandering answer before a grand jury in 2003 was not material to the government's investigation into steroids distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds was indicted in 2007 for his testimony four years earlier before the grand jury investigating the illegal distribution of performance-enhancing drugs by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following a trial that opened in March 2011, a jury deadlocked on three counts charging Bonds with making false statements when he denied receiving steroids and human growth hormone from trainer Greg Anderson and denied receiving injections from Anderson or his associates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds was convicted on one count for his response when he was asked whether Anderson ever gave him \"anything that required a syringe to inject yourself with.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today's news is something that I have long hoped for,'' Bonds said in a statement. \"I am humbled and truly thankful for the outcome as well as the opportunity our judicial system affords to all individuals to seek justice. ... I am excited about what the future holds for me as I embark on the next chapter.''\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica Wolfram, one of the jurors who convicted Bonds following the three-week trial and four days of deliberations, said she couldn't help but feel the decade-long prosecution was \"all a waste, all for nothing.''\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Just a waste of money, having the whole trial and jury,'' she said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government could ask the 11-judge panel to reconsider Wednesday's decision or could request that all 29 judges on the 9th Circuit rehear the case. The full court has never sat on a case since it began using the \"limited en banc\" panels in 1980.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors also could petition the U.S. Supreme Court to review the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wendy Thurm, a sports journalist and attorney, told KQED she wasn't surprised by the 9th Circuit's action. \"A lot of observers, including myself, were surprised that the original appellate court did uphold a conviction.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't know how much this is going to change public opinion, though. A lot of people think he's a bad guy, a lot of people have drawn their own conclusions about what he did or didn't do, whether he should be in the Hall of Fame. That debate will continue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voting for the Baseball Hall of Fame is limited to members of the Baseball Writers Association of America, and Thurm said she doesn't think many of the writers who voted against Bonds in the past did so because of his conviction. \"It's much more focused on their belief that he did take steroids, and that in their view, that disqualifies him. So I don't think this 9th Circuit decision opens the door for him to waltz into the Hall of Fame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think what it does do is open up the door for him to have a more public relationship with the Giants organization going forward. He was a spring training instructor last year, he was even at the Giants game last night. That could be part of a goodwill effort to try to change people's minds about the Hall of Fame. But also, the Giants are now in a position to embrace Bonds for who he was. His home run record and his chase for the record kind of built AT&T Park, and filled that ballpark in the first five or six years that it was open, even as the team's record itself had started to wane. \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the opinion:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\" src=\"https://www.scribd.com/embeds/262762988/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-Fci4r05ckYCa4tDUUPdS&show_recommendations=false\" data-auto-height=\"false\" data-aspect-ratio=\"0.7729220222793488\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"doc_51464\" width=\"800\" height=\"1066\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original story, July 1, 2014\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has granted Barry Bonds' request for a rehearing of a challenge to his conviction for obstruction of justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/general/2014/07/01/11-10669%20EB%20order.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">a one-paragraph order issued Tuesday\u003c/a>, the court said a special panel of 11 judges would look again at the 2011 guilty verdict.

He was a spring training instructor last year, he was even at the Giants game last night. That could be part of a goodwill effort to try to change people's minds about the Hall of Fame. But also, the Giants are now in a position to embrace Bonds for who he was. His home run record and his chase for the record kind of built AT&T Park, and filled that ballpark in the first five or six years that it was open, even as the team's record itself had started to wane. \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the opinion:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\" src=\"https://www.scribd.com/embeds/262762988/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-Fci4r05ckYCa4tDUUPdS&show_recommendations=false\" data-auto-height=\"false\" data-aspect-ratio=\"0.7729220222793488\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"doc_51464\" width=\"800\" height=\"1066\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original story, July 1, 2014\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has granted Barry Bonds' request for a rehearing of a challenge to his conviction for obstruction of justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/general/2014/07/01/11-10669%20EB%20order.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">a one-paragraph order issued Tuesday\u003c/a>, the court said a special panel of 11 judges would look again at the 2011 guilty verdict.

And that guy who holds Major League Baseball's all-time home run record? He didn't even come close to getting elected, again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That guy, of course, is former Pittsburgh Pirates and San Francisco Giants outfielder \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/piazzmi01.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Barry Bonds\u003c/a>. Last year, members of the Baseball Writers Association of America made it clear that despite all of Bonds' prodigious feats, including his record 762 home runs, they were very, very cool to the idea of awarding him the game's ultimate honor. The writers' message in Bonds' first year of Hall of Fame eligibility: We're not about to forgive your assumed use of performance-enhancing drugs. Bonds was named on just 36.2 percent of the ballots cast, far short of the 75 percent support needed for the Hall. Another high-profile presumed doper on that ballot, Red Sox/Blue Jays/Yankees/Astros pitcher Roger Clemens, suffered a similar fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year's result made a lot of people curious about what would happen in this year's Hall of Fame voting. If Bonds got more votes this time around, maybe he'd be on the way to eventual election. Well, the writers have spoken, and the news for Bonds' prospects of future enshrinement aren't looking good. His support actually declined from last year, with 34.7 percent of voters (198 of 571 who cast ballots) supporting his admission to the Hall in Cooperstown, N.Y. (Clemens' support went down too, from 37.6 percent last year to 35.4 percent this year.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the news was happier for three first-time candidates: Those who did make it in this year were:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/maddugr01.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Greg Maddux\u003c/a>, starter for the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/g/glavito02.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Tom Glavine,\u003c/a> starter for the Atlanta Braves\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/t/thomafr04.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Frank Thomas\u003c/a>, first baseman and designated hitter for the Chicago White Sox, Oakland A's and Toronto Blue Jays\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The Hall of Fame announcement and complete list of those who received votes is here: \u003ca href=\"http://baseballhall.org/news/press-releases/bbwaa-elects-greg-maddux-tom-glavine-and-frank-thomas\" target=\"_blank\">BBWAA Elects Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three players elected today join three managers also elected to the Hall: Tony LaRussa (White Sox, A's, St. Louis Cardinals), Joe Torre (New York Yankees) and Bobby Cox, who managed Maddux and Glavine for the Braves and led the team to its long string of playoff appearances in the 1990s and early 2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other headlines from the Hall of Fame balloting:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Besides Clemens, another prominent figure from the steroid era, first baseman Mark McGwire, saw his support erode in this year's voting.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Craig Biggio, an All-Star catcher and second baseman with sterling credentials and no association with doping, fell just short of election this year.

The Hall will make its announcement at 11 a.m. PST. Last year was Bonds' first year of eligibility for the honor. He needed 75 percent of votes cast by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America to get into the Hall. He got just shy of 37 percent in the 2013 voting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, the former San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates superstar has the ultimate qualification for the Hall: He hit more home runs than anyone to play the game who is not named \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/japan/player.cgi?id=oh----000sad\" target=\"_blank\">Sadaharu Oh\u003c/a>. When Bonds' career ended after the 2007 season, he had hit 762 home runs. And there was so much more to his game, too. Through much of his career he was near the top of any fan's list of the game's best players because he did everything well. It was hard to remember, watching his bulked-up late-career physique, the lean fleet outfielder he once had been — the \"\u003ca href=\"http://lehmansbaseball.wordpress.com/5-tools/\" target=\"_blank\">five-tool player\u003c/a>\" who hit for average, for power, ran, fielded and threw with the best in the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that blown-up body was the visible sign of his coming downfall, because, though no one's proved it in court, the universal assumption is that Bonds only achieved his amazing power numbers the same way he became The Hulk — because he was doping. (Yes, Bonds \u003ca href=\"http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/04/barry-bonds-verdict-.html\" target=\"_blank\">has been convicted\u003c/a> — but for obstruction of justice in a trial that accused him of lying to a grand jury investigating the use of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball.

And that guy who holds Major League Baseball's all-time home run record? He didn't even come close to getting elected, again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That guy, of course, is former Pittsburgh Pirates and San Francisco Giants outfielder \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/piazzmi01.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Barry Bonds\u003c/a>. Last year, members of the Baseball Writers Association of America made it clear that despite all of Bonds' prodigious feats, including his record 762 home runs, they were very, very cool to the idea of awarding him the game's ultimate honor. The writers' message in Bonds' first year of Hall of Fame eligibility: We're not about to forgive your assumed use of performance-enhancing drugs. Bonds was named on just 36.2 percent of the ballots cast, far short of the 75 percent support needed for the Hall. Another high-profile presumed doper on that ballot, Red Sox/Blue Jays/Yankees/Astros pitcher Roger Clemens, suffered a similar fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year's result made a lot of people curious about what would happen in this year's Hall of Fame voting. If Bonds got more votes this time around, maybe he'd be on the way to eventual election. Well, the writers have spoken, and the news for Bonds' prospects of future enshrinement aren't looking good. His support actually declined from last year, with 34.7 percent of voters (198 of 571 who cast ballots) supporting his admission to the Hall in Cooperstown, N.Y. (Clemens' support went down too, from 37.6 percent last year to 35.4 percent this year.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the news was happier for three first-time candidates: Those who did make it in this year were:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/maddugr01.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Greg Maddux\u003c/a>, starter for the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/g/glavito02.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Tom Glavine,\u003c/a> starter for the Atlanta Braves\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/t/thomafr04.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Frank Thomas\u003c/a>, first baseman and designated hitter for the Chicago White Sox, Oakland A's and Toronto Blue Jays\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The Hall of Fame announcement and complete list of those who received votes is here: \u003ca href=\"http://baseballhall.org/news/press-releases/bbwaa-elects-greg-maddux-tom-glavine-and-frank-thomas\" target=\"_blank\">BBWAA Elects Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three players elected today join three managers also elected to the Hall: Tony LaRussa (White Sox, A's, St. Louis Cardinals), Joe Torre (New York Yankees) and Bobby Cox, who managed Maddux and Glavine for the Braves and led the team to its long string of playoff appearances in the 1990s and early 2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other headlines from the Hall of Fame balloting:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Besides Clemens, another prominent figure from the steroid era, first baseman Mark McGwire, saw his support erode in this year's voting.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Craig Biggio, an All-Star catcher and second baseman with sterling credentials and no association with doping, fell just short of election this year.

The Hall will make its announcement at 11 a.m. PST. Last year was Bonds' first year of eligibility for the honor. He needed 75 percent of votes cast by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America to get into the Hall. He got just shy of 37 percent in the 2013 voting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, the former San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates superstar has the ultimate qualification for the Hall: He hit more home runs than anyone to play the game who is not named \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/japan/player.cgi?id=oh----000sad\" target=\"_blank\">Sadaharu Oh\u003c/a>. When Bonds' career ended after the 2007 season, he had hit 762 home runs. And there was so much more to his game, too. Through much of his career he was near the top of any fan's list of the game's best players because he did everything well. It was hard to remember, watching his bulked-up late-career physique, the lean fleet outfielder he once had been — the \"\u003ca href=\"http://lehmansbaseball.wordpress.com/5-tools/\" target=\"_blank\">five-tool player\u003c/a>\" who hit for average, for power, ran, fielded and threw with the best in the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that blown-up body was the visible sign of his coming downfall, because, though no one's proved it in court, the universal assumption is that Bonds only achieved his amazing power numbers the same way he became The Hulk — because he was doping. (Yes, Bonds \u003ca href=\"http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/04/barry-bonds-verdict-.html\" target=\"_blank\">has been convicted\u003c/a> — but for obstruction of justice in a trial that accused him of lying to a grand jury investigating the use of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. Bonds was acquitted of several perjury counts in the trial.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given that history, it's hard to believe Bonds will be elected this year either.

In sports, he is known as the founder, owner and chairman of San Francisco-based Tailwind Sports, the holding company for the U.S. Postal Service cycling team that Armstrong led to an unbroken string of seven victories in the Tour de France, from 1999 to 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The relationship between the financier and the cycling champion began in 1990, when Armstrong was a teenager trying to break into professional cycling and Weisel was dreaming of building an American racing team that could dominate the Tour de France…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At stake is the $40 million in federal funds the Postal Service paid Tailwind between 1996 and 2004 to sponsor the team. Team management – which hired and paid the riders – promised in its contracts not to tolerate doping. The Postal Service is investigating whether Armstrong and others defrauded the government by violating that no-doping clause, a federal prosecutor wrote in a filing last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weisel declined to comment for this story. He has not publicly addressed the reports of doping on the team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In legal sparring over whether Armstrong had to comply with a Postal Service subpoena for financial records, however, the cyclist’s lawyer, John Keker, revealed that the government also had subpoenaed “nearly identical” records from Weisel, according to the unsealed documents.

Finally, he told the tale himself after promising over the weekend to answer Winfrey’s questions “directly, honestly and candidly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cyclist was stripped of his Tour titles, lost most of his endorsements and was forced to leave Livestrong last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency issued a damning, 1,000-page report that accused him of masterminding a long-running doping scheme.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The International Cycling Union, or UCI, issued a statement on Tuesday saying it was aware of the reports that Armstrong had confessed to Winfrey. The governing body for the sport urged Armstrong to tell his story to an independent commission it has set up to examine claims it covered up suspicious samples from the cyclist, accepted financial donations from him and helped him avoid detection in doping tests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong started Monday with a visit to the headquarters of Livestrong, the charity he founded in 1997 and turned into a global force on the strength of his athletic dominance and personal story of surviving testicular cancer that had spread to his lungs and brain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 100 Livestrong staff members gathered in a conference room as Armstrong told them “I’m sorry.” He choked up during a 20-minute talk, expressing regret for the long-running controversy tied to performance-enhancers had caused, but stopped short of admitting he used them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before he was done, several members were in tears when he urged them to continue the charity’s mission, helping cancer patients and their families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Heartfelt and sincere,” is how Livestrong spokeswoman Katherine McLane described his speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong later huddled with almost a dozen people before stepping into a room set up at a downtown Austin hotel for the interview with Winfrey. The group included close friends and lawyers. They exchanged handshakes and smiles, but declined comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winfrey has promoted her interview, one of the biggest for OWN since she launched the network in 2011, as a “no-holds barred” session, and after the voluminous USADA report — which included testimony from 11 former teammates — she said she went into the session with 112 questions ready to go. Not all of them were asked, she said, but many were.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USADA chief executive Travis Tygart, a longtime critic of Armstrong’s, called the drug regimen practiced while Armstrong led the U.S. Postal Service team “the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen.” USADA did not respond to requests for comment about Armstrong’s confession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, Armstrong went after his critics ruthlessly during his reign as cycling champion. He scolded some in public and didn’t hesitate to punish outspoken riders during the race itself. He waged legal battles against still others in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least one of his opponents, the London-based Sunday Times, has already filed a lawsuit to recover about $500,000 it paid him to settle a libel case, and Dallas-based SCA Promotions, which tried to deny Armstrong a promised bonus for a Tour de France win, has threatened to bring another lawsuit seeking to recover more than $7.5 million awarded by an arbitration panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Australia, the government of South Australia state said Tuesday it will seek the repayment of several million dollars in appearance fees paid to Armstrong for competing in the Tour Down Under in 2009, 2010 and 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’d be more than happy for Mr. Armstrong to make any repayment of monies to us,” South Australia Premier Jay Weatherill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betsy Andreu, the wife of former Armstrong teammate Frankie Andreu, was one of the first to publicly accuse Armstrong of using performance-enhancing drugs. She called news of Armstrong’s confession “very emotional and very sad,” and choked up when asked to comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He used to be one of my husband’s best friends and because he wouldn’t go along with the doping, he got kicked to the side,” she said. “Lance could have a positive impact if he tells the truth on everything. He’s got to be completely honest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betsy Andreu testified in SCA’s arbitration case challenging the bonus in 2005, saying Armstrong admitted in an Indiana hospital room in 1996 that he had taken many performance-enhancing drugs, a claim Armstrong vehemently denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It would be nice if he would come out and say the hospital room happened,” Andreu said. “That’s where it all started.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former teammate Floyd Landis, who was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title for doping, has filed a federal whistle-blower lawsuit that accused Armstrong of defrauding the U.S. Postal Service. An attorney familiar with Armstrong’s legal problems told the AP that the Justice Department is highly likely to join the lawsuit. The False Claims Act lawsuit could result in Armstrong paying a substantial amount of money to the U.S. government. The deadline for the department to join the case is Thursday, though the department could seek an extension if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the attorney, who works outside the government, the lawsuit alleges that Armstrong defrauded the U.S. government based on his years of denying use of performance-enhancing drugs. The attorney spoke on condition of anonymity because the source was not authorized to speak on the record about the matter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit most likely to be influenced by a confession might be the Sunday Times case. Potential perjury charges stemming from Armstrong’s sworn testimony in the 2005 arbitration fight would not apply because of the statute of limitations. Armstrong was not deposed during the federal investigation that was closed last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong is said to be worth around $100 million.

Among them is San Francisco financier Thomas Weisel, \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/sports/story/glare-lance-armstrong-probe-falls-sf/print/\">according to Matt Smith and Lance Williams of the Center for Investigative Reporting\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Lance Armstrong’s “no-holds-barred” interview with Oprah Winfrey on Thursday, when he’s expected to confess to the use of performance-enhancing drugs during his professional cycling career, comes as a federal probe into his finances has widened to focus on the man who bankrolled his champion teams: legendary San Francisco financier Thomas Weisel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Court documents unsealed last month show that government investigators pursuing possible fraud claims against Armstrong have subpoenaed Weisel, founder of the Montgomery Securities investment firm and co-chairman of Stifel Financial Corp., the Center for Investigative Reporting has found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the business world, Weisel, 71, is renowned for taking public such companies as Amgen and Yahoo. In sports, he is known as the founder, owner and chairman of San Francisco-based Tailwind Sports, the holding company for the U.S. Postal Service cycling team that Armstrong led to an unbroken string of seven victories in the Tour de France, from 1999 to 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The relationship between the financier and the cycling champion began in 1990, when Armstrong was a teenager trying to break into professional cycling and Weisel was dreaming of building an American racing team that could dominate the Tour de France…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At stake is the $40 million in federal funds the Postal Service paid Tailwind between 1996 and 2004 to sponsor the team. Team management – which hired and paid the riders – promised in its contracts not to tolerate doping. The Postal Service is investigating whether Armstrong and others defrauded the government by violating that no-doping clause, a federal prosecutor wrote in a filing last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weisel declined to comment for this story. He has not publicly addressed the reports of doping on the team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In legal sparring over whether Armstrong had to comply with a Postal Service subpoena for financial records, however, the cyclist’s lawyer, John Keker, revealed that the government also had subpoenaed “nearly identical” records from Weisel, according to the unsealed documents.

Finally, he told the tale himself after promising over the weekend to answer Winfrey’s questions “directly, honestly and candidly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cyclist was stripped of his Tour titles, lost most of his endorsements and was forced to leave Livestrong last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency issued a damning, 1,000-page report that accused him of masterminding a long-running doping scheme.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The International Cycling Union, or UCI, issued a statement on Tuesday saying it was aware of the reports that Armstrong had confessed to Winfrey. The governing body for the sport urged Armstrong to tell his story to an independent commission it has set up to examine claims it covered up suspicious samples from the cyclist, accepted financial donations from him and helped him avoid detection in doping tests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong started Monday with a visit to the headquarters of Livestrong, the charity he founded in 1997 and turned into a global force on the strength of his athletic dominance and personal story of surviving testicular cancer that had spread to his lungs and brain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 100 Livestrong staff members gathered in a conference room as Armstrong told them “I’m sorry.” He choked up during a 20-minute talk, expressing regret for the long-running controversy tied to performance-enhancers had caused, but stopped short of admitting he used them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before he was done, several members were in tears when he urged them to continue the charity’s mission, helping cancer patients and their families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Heartfelt and sincere,” is how Livestrong spokeswoman Katherine McLane described his speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong later huddled with almost a dozen people before stepping into a room set up at a downtown Austin hotel for the interview with Winfrey. The group included close friends and lawyers. They exchanged handshakes and smiles, but declined comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winfrey has promoted her interview, one of the biggest for OWN since she launched the network in 2011, as a “no-holds barred” session, and after the voluminous USADA report — which included testimony from 11 former teammates — she said she went into the session with 112 questions ready to go. Not all of them were asked, she said, but many were.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USADA chief executive Travis Tygart, a longtime critic of Armstrong’s, called the drug regimen practiced while Armstrong led the U.S. Postal Service team “the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen.” USADA did not respond to requests for comment about Armstrong’s confession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, Armstrong went after his critics ruthlessly during his reign as cycling champion. He scolded some in public and didn’t hesitate to punish outspoken riders during the race itself. He waged legal battles against still others in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least one of his opponents, the London-based Sunday Times, has already filed a lawsuit to recover about $500,000 it paid him to settle a libel case, and Dallas-based SCA Promotions, which tried to deny Armstrong a promised bonus for a Tour de France win, has threatened to bring another lawsuit seeking to recover more than $7.5 million awarded by an arbitration panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Australia, the government of South Australia state said Tuesday it will seek the repayment of several million dollars in appearance fees paid to Armstrong for competing in the Tour Down Under in 2009, 2010 and 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’d be more than happy for Mr. Armstrong to make any repayment of monies to us,” South Australia Premier Jay Weatherill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betsy Andreu, the wife of former Armstrong teammate Frankie Andreu, was one of the first to publicly accuse Armstrong of using performance-enhancing drugs. She called news of Armstrong’s confession “very emotional and very sad,” and choked up when asked to comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He used to be one of my husband’s best friends and because he wouldn’t go along with the doping, he got kicked to the side,” she said. “Lance could have a positive impact if he tells the truth on everything. He’s got to be completely honest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betsy Andreu testified in SCA’s arbitration case challenging the bonus in 2005, saying Armstrong admitted in an Indiana hospital room in 1996 that he had taken many performance-enhancing drugs, a claim Armstrong vehemently denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It would be nice if he would come out and say the hospital room happened,” Andreu said. “That’s where it all started.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former teammate Floyd Landis, who was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title for doping, has filed a federal whistle-blower lawsuit that accused Armstrong of defrauding the U.S. Postal Service. An attorney familiar with Armstrong’s legal problems told the AP that the Justice Department is highly likely to join the lawsuit. The False Claims Act lawsuit could result in Armstrong paying a substantial amount of money to the U.S. government. The deadline for the department to join the case is Thursday, though the department could seek an extension if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the attorney, who works outside the government, the lawsuit alleges that Armstrong defrauded the U.S. government based on his years of denying use of performance-enhancing drugs. The attorney spoke on condition of anonymity because the source was not authorized to speak on the record about the matter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit most likely to be influenced by a confession might be the Sunday Times case. Potential perjury charges stemming from Armstrong’s sworn testimony in the 2005 arbitration fight would not apply because of the statute of limitations. Armstrong was not deposed during the federal investigation that was closed last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armstrong is said to be worth around $100 million. But most sponsors dropped him after USADA’s scathing report — at the cost of tens of millions of dollars — and soon after, he left the board of Livestrong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the USADA findings, he was also barred from competing in the elite triathlon or running events he participated in after his cycling career.
