SAN
ANTONIO (AP) - Disgraced sprinter Marion Jones has been
released from federal prison after completing her sentence
for lying about her steroid use.
A
federal Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman says Jones was released
Friday from a halfway house in San Antonio after serving
most of her six-month sentence for lying to federal investigators
about her use of performance-enhancing drugs.
An
admitted steriod dealer testified that he gave Jones a cocktail
of steriods before the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
She
was stripped of her five medals in 2007 after admitting
that she used the drugs.
