So, lest we all forget, not only is Barry Bonds possibly got some collusion coming against him, but he's also got that whole indictment lying to a federal grand jury thing to deal with. Poor guy. If you remember the particulars of the indictment back in November, Bonds was charged with one count of obstruction and four counts of perjury. Well, a new superseding indictment is charging Bonds with 14 counts of making false declarations and one count of obstruction of justice. So what does it all mean? Nothing much, it seems.
No new lies were alleged in the new indictment and Bonds wouldn't serve additional prison time if convicted.So yes: it's pretty much the same thing. But the wording and charges are a bit different. Confusing? Perhaps.
"It's exactly the same," Golden Gate University law professor Peter Keane said. "It's two ways of saying it's lying and there's really no substantial difference between what he was charged with then and what he is charged with now."
