While Barry Bonds' legal team is prepared if the Giants slugger is indicted on perjury and tax evasion charges, it remains hopeful it won't have to mount a defense at all, attorney Laura Enos told Bloomberg News.
"I am not expecting nor is anyone else on the team expecting an indictment," Enos told Bloomberg in a telephone interview. Enos told the news service that if the government "had the evidence they would have indicted him a long time ago."
The Associated Press reported Friday that Bonds' legal team was preparing for the outfielder to be indicted as soon as next week.ESPN.com (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2521019)
