Defense objects to Bonds’ testicles evidence

[thundley4]

SAN FRANCISCO – Courtroom 10 in the federal courthouse should be free of crude discussion of Barry Bonds’ allegedly shriveled testicles, supposed premature baldness and rumored massive head – at least that was the spirited argument Wednesday in a defense filing in the perjury case.

The motion by Bonds’ attorneys addressed scientific and lay testimony proposed by the prosecution that the defense believes Judge Susan Illston should prohibit in her “gatekeeping role.”

Attorneys for the former slugger charged that one of the government’s expert witnesses on steroids, Larry Bowers, while the senior managing director of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and an accomplished chemist, “is not even a medical doctor” and “does not claim to have treated, let alone examined a single individual who was known or suspected of using steroids or HGH.”
