David Segui will testify against Roger Clemens

Federal prosecutors hope that the judge Reggie Walton will 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 player had a conversation with Brian McNamee, the former trainer of Roger Clemens. It is confirmed that they have spoken about steroid use by the former celebrated baseball player.
McNamee was chosen to testify against Roger Clemens because he turned out to be the only person that had direct knowledge about intake of steroids and other related drugs by Roger Clemens. Furthermore, Brian McNamee stored a beer can with vials, syringes and needles that were allegedly mixed with Roger Clemens’ blood. DNA analysis was made in order to define whether the blood belonged really to Clemens.
Rusty Hardin, a defense attorney for Roger Clemens, confirmed that the steroid evidence was thought up by Brian McNamee after the interrogation by federal prosecutors.
But prosecutors claimed that David Segui told them that Brian McNamee said that he kept certain things as evidence of steroid use by some players in 2001. It was some years before the former trainer of Roger Clemens became the target of the investigation.
Information presented by David Segui to federal prosecutors differed entirely from that provided to the sportswriter Jim Baumbach. His statements provided to the sportswriter were published in an article in 2008. According to that article, Segui claimed that he had never spoken about steroids with his friend Brian McNamee.
Segui learnt about involvement of Brian McNamee into the trial of Roger Clemens just in 2006, when he read an article in the Los Angeles Times.
Segui said openly about personal administration of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. He said that players of the Major League Baseball asked him many times whether he had utilized steroids. This person acknowledged that he had administered them. But Segui confirmed that he had never discussed about application of steroids with Brian McNamee.
Segui supported McNamee’s decision to save evidence about application of prohibited medications by his clients. According to Segui, it is a proper decision because sometimes innocent guys are blamed but guilty persons are covered. So, he could help to reveal the truth.
Although the judge Walton was asked to permit David Segui to present testimony in the trial related to Roger Clemens, it is unclear yet whether the judge will allow it.
