Bonds Verdict Is In

The jurors in the Barry Bonds criminal trial came back with their decision today, and Bonds was only convicted of the Obstruction of Justice charge, but the jury was deadlocked on the other three charges. This has to be considered a victory for Bonds legal team, given the severity of some of the other charges. The prosecution now faces a tough decision. Do they retry Bonds on the other three charges even though they were nowhere close to a conviction, or do they choose not to refile and risk looking they are taking a soft and defeated stance in the case? It will be interesting to see how the prosecution proceeds...
