I just read a yahoo article about some recently made public documents of the Balco Grand Jury investigation. To make a long story short, the main drug THG "the Clear" Bonds was accused of taking, was not an illegal drug when he was supposed to have been taking it.
The feds knew it and essentially were trying to get him and other athletes to perjure themselves so they could get a conviction... any conviction.
“It sounds like a misuse of the grand jury,” said John Bartko, a former assistant U.S. Attorney in San Francisco who has tried perjury cases. “They go and try to trip the guy into lying.”

The government believes it has tripped Bonds, but whether he falls will be determined in court. The fact that the key drug he is accused of taking was legal and not recognized as a steroid under federal law could complicate the case, experts say."
