In Washington, a 7-time Cy Young Award winner named Roger Clemens was indicted for allegedly lying to Congress that he is using steroids.

Clemens is now faced with obstruction of Congress, having false statements and perjury.

With his former trainer, Brian Mcnamee, they both testified under oath last 2008 hearing. They contradicted each other about whether Clemens was using the banned substances.

Mcnamee confessed to federal agents that he injected Clemens more than a dozen times from 1998 to 2001.

Clemens disagrees with the statements and said that Mcnamee was just lying.

Rusty Hardin, Clemens’ attorney, said over the telephone that he had just learned of the indictment. He would have to wait whether to comment or not.

The said case was held by the U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton, the one who presided over the perjury and obstruction trial of Lewis “Scooter” Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney’s former chief of staff. Fixed schedule for Clemens’ appearance on court is still in question.

Clemens said strongly, “I’ve been accused of something I’m not guilty of…I have never taken steroids or HGH.” This was his words in a defiant appearance before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in 2008.
