Lesson be learned, you leak federal grand jury testimonies to reporters, you will go to prison. For a long time. That's what's happening to Victor Conte's BALCO attorney Troy Ellerman, who gave information about athletes being investigated for steroids use such as Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, and Gary Sheffield, to San Francisco Chronicle reporters Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams.In papers filed in San Francisco federal court Thursday, prosecutors said Troy Ellerman is willing to accept that sentence [maximum of two years and nine months] after a judge last month rejected the original 24-month maximum sentence as too lenient.How long the actual sentence is remains to be determined. But we do know that this guy will be going to prison for quite some time. So that should take care of Ellerman, with Greg Anderson and Victor Conte already having served their terms. Next up, Bonds, Sheffield, and Giambi? I doubt it, but it's certainly a possibility.Federal prosecutors did agree to reduce his maximum fine to $60,000 from $250,000.
District Court Judge Jeffrey White, who rejected the earlier deal, still must approve the new agreement when Ellerman returns to court July 12.
