Does money cause happiness? Undoubtedly, it doesn’t. But money possesses great power. However it can’t bring happiness, it has ability to help to prevent imprisonment in several cases. Let review the cases against Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens. Someone has probably believed that these sportspersons will lose. But you should not forget that rich guys never lose. Since they have money, they have many possibilities to win.
Barry Bonds was accused of lying to a grand jury. He claimed under the oath that he had never taken any forbidden remedies. It seemed that Barry Bonds’ cheating became obvious and he would spend certain time in jail. But remember: this baseball player has much money. However he was convicted for obstruction of justice, he was sentenced just to house arrest and community service. Furthermore, even this light sentencing was appealed.
Roger Clemens, another athlete, was charged with lying under oath too. He affirmed that he had never administered any prohibited substances. Ultimately, the athlete was cleared of all charges. He didn’t lose as well.
These cases demonstrate power of money. Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens have hired the best defense attorneys. Undoubtedly, you need much money in order to hire the most experienced defense attorneys. Since Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens have money, they could hire Albert Pujols, Allen Ruby or Rustin Hardy. Thus, it is not surprisingly that federal prosecutors have lost under these circumstances.
Federal prosecutors lost also in other situations. For example, let mention the case against the prominent American cyclist Lance Armstrong. The government decided to drop the case because it would lose.
However the government wasted much money for these cases, it couldn’t win. Federal prosecutors had only minor results in the cases related to Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens.
Thus, if you are a professional sportsperson, you may apply anabolic steroids and/or other related medications, if you have money. You should be rich enough to avoid prison. Otherwise, you will be ashamed and spend years in jail.
