Report: McNamee gives vials, syringes, gauze pads to investigators

ESPN.com news services

Updated: February 6, 2008, 3:13 PM ET

Former personal trainer Brian McNamee has turned physical
evidence that he believes will show Roger Clemens used
performance-enhancing drugs over to federal investigators,
his attorneys told the New York Daily News.

"This is evidence the government has that we believe will
corroborate Brian in every significant way," McNamee
lawyer Earl Ward told the Daily News.

The lawyers wouldn't discuss what the evidence is, but a
source told the Daily News that McNamee gave vials with
traces of steroids and human growth hormone, as well as
blood-stained syringes and gauze pads that might contain
Clemens' DNA, to the Justice Department's BALCO
investigators.

The evidence has been sent to a lab for testing, and
prosecutors might seek a court order for a DNA sample
from Clemens if the evidence contains traces of drugs and
blood, the Daily News reported.

2. Clemens defense will be...
That he has admitted that McNamee injected him with B-12 which is where he got the syringes. McNamee added the steroids and HGH later on to falsify evidence. I don't buy it, but I'll bet that will be the defense.

3. But wouldn't the syringes have B-12 residue on them?

McNamee has the goods on him. It is like the stained dress(mentioned above, I think). He hung onto it all these years because he knew that all this could come back to bite him and he wasn't about to take the fall for all the sports guys.
