The wife of embattled Major League Baseball pitcher Roger Clemens has thrown a monkey wrench into the steroid/HGH investigation against her husband. She took HGH to prepare for a photo shoot in 2002-2003, the exact time that shipments of HGH believed to be for Roger were shipped to the Clemens’ house.
Admitted steroid provider Kirk Radomski provided authorities with receipts this week that said he sent HGH to the Clemens’ home in 2002-2003. The officials seeking to bust Clemens for lying to a grand jury about not taking performance enhancing drugs believed they had a smoking gun. However, Debbie Clemens might have been the one using the HGH to tone up for a photo shoot with Sports Illustrated. Roger Clemens’ trainer, Brain McNamee said that he gave Debbie Clemens injections of HGH into her abdomen with Roger Clemens looking on.
With this week’s Radomski receipts could have been exactly what authorities were looking for to catch Roger Clemens red handed but Debbie Clemens will say otherwise. Until another revelation as decisive as Radomski’s (but without Debbie Clemens in the middle of it) Roger Clemens’ case will continue to be his word against McNamee’s.
