This is the 37th submission in a long series about Marion Jones, a former elite sprinter who won honour and earned endorsements, fame and fortune by method of fraud. This series continues with the Victor Conte story, one which categorically ties Marion Jones to steroids.
Marion Jones is also tied in to documents located at the BALCO site—documents which as of yet, most of which have been sealed and not provided to the public. Those documents were collected legally while carrying out due process of the law—with those verifications of fact not being suppressed from evidence used in non-analytical convictions.
Conte apparently, according to a personal federal deposition taken in 2003, received his one—and only—supply of “the clear”—a substance of which he states he does not know the exact contents—through from a man named Patrick Arnold for $450. “The clear”, according to a federal document, was apparently purchased by Conte “a couple of years” prior to 2003.
Marion Jones confessed of having used “the clear”.
Arnold has, on his own, stated he provided banned substances—norbolethone and THG— to coaches as well.
However, as part of his plea agreement, Arnold was not forced to name athletes and coaches to whom he gave drugs.
“Track and field, especially the sprinters, they were more sophisticated in whom to seek out,”
