Marion Jones is going to be sentenced soon. She's a liar, cheat and a disgrace to every athlete whoever competed honestly. I have NO sympathy for her. She gets what she deserves.
I have said before lying to the Feds is serious business. Lying to the people who put their trust and faith in you is even worse. And for that, you must be held accountable.
I am not a lawyer so I don't know the ins and outs of federal sentencing. We here in Atlanta got a taste of it with the Michael Vick situation. That was a bad one there. But there is talk he might get out early, possibly in one year, if he successfully completes a drug rehab program while in the joint.
Marion Jones deserves nothing---except scorn and our back turned, because that is exactly what she did to us, when she denied using performance-enchancing drugs.
Now, she will know what it is like on the other foot.
And hopefully she will have a long time to think about it.
