Clemens Found Not Guilty

(WSCR) Former Major League pitcher Roger Clemens has been found not guilty of all charges in the federal perjury trial against him.

Clemens was accused of lying to Congress during an investigation of steroid use among Major League Baseball players.

The case against Clemens involves one count of obstruction of Congress, three counts of making false statements and two counts of perjury. He is not charged with illicit use of performance-enhancing drugs, but his denial of such use is part of the case against him.

Arguments in the trial in Washington concluded last week.
