Federal prosecutors asked judge Walton to permit David Segui to testify against Roger Clemens

Federal prosecutors want the judge Reggie Walton to permit the former first baseman of the Major League Baseball David Segui to present testimony in the trial linked with the case of Roger Clemens. This person had a conversation with Brian McNamee, the former trainer of Roger Clemens. It is confirmed that they have discussed about steroid use by the former celebrated baseball player.
The former personal trainer of Roger Clemens was called to testify against his client because he turned out to be the only person who had direct knowledge about administration of steroids and other related medications by Roger Clemens. Furthermore, he stored a beer can with vials, syringes and needles that were allegedly mixed with Roger Clemens’ blood. DNA analysis was conducted in order to determine whether it was Clemens’ blood.
Rusty Hardin, a defense attorney for Roger Clemens, claimed that the steroid evidence was thought up by Brian McNamee after the questioning by federal prosecutors.
But prosecutors claimed that David Segui told them that Brian McNamee said that he saved several things as evidence of steroid use by several players in 2001. It was certain years before the former trainer of Roger Clemens became the target of the investigation.
Information presented by David Segui to federal prosecutors differed essentially from that provided to the sportswriter Jim Baumbach. His words provided to Jim Baumbach were published in an article in 2008. According to that piece of news, David Segui claimed that he had never discussed about steroids with his friend Brian McNamee.
David Segui learnt about implication of Brian McNamee into the trial of Roger Clemens just in 2006, when he read an article in the Los Angeles Times.
Segui discussed openly about personal administration of steroids and other related medications. He said that players of the Major League Baseball asked him many times whether he had utilized steroids. This person acknowledged that he had utilized them. But Segui claimed that he had never spoken about usage of steroids with Brian McNamee.
David Segui supported the decision of McNamee to keep evidence about usage of prohibited products by his clients. According to David Segui, it is a correct decision because sometimes innocent guys are blamed but guilty guys are covered. So, he could help to disclose the truth.
However federal prosecutors asked the judge Walton to permit Segui to provide testimony in the trial connected with Roger Clemens, the judge didn’t announce his decision yet.
