Clemens wants to show evidence accuser raped woman
WASHINGTON
The move is part of Clemens' attempt to discredit his former
trainer Brian McNamee, who was never charged in the investigation
but admits he lied when questioned by Florida police in 2001. In a
filing late Wednesday night, Clemens' attorneys argued the
experience gave McNamee a motive to falsely accuse Clemens of using
drugs to save himself from becoming a target of a federal criminal
investigation in 2007.
That's the year that McNamee told federal agents and
investigators that he repeatedly injected Clemens with steroid and
human growth hormone.
