Kathy Hoskins Testifies She Saw Greg Anderson Inject Barry Bonds

Steroid News

News bot on steroids
Hoskins, a longtime family friend of Bonds’s and his former personal shopper, testified that she witnessed Bonds being injected by his personal trainer, Greg Anderson, in 2002. She said she was in Bonds’s bedroom helping him pack for one of his road trips for the San Francisco Giants when he entered with Anderson.

“Barry was like, ‘Just do it right here,’ ” she said Bonds told Anderson. “Barry just lifted his shirt up and he said: ‘This is Katie. She’s my girl. She’s not going to say nothing to nobody.’ ”

Then Anderson gave Bonds an injection in the belly button, Hoskins testified. She said Bonds told her: ‘That’s a little somethin’, somethin’ when I go on the road. You can’t detect it.”

After nearly two weeks of testimony at the trial in United States District Court, Hoskins became the first person to say she had witnessed Bonds being injected. Bonds, baseball’s home run king, is charged with four counts of lying to a grand jury in 2003 when he said he never knowingly took steroids, and one count of obstruction of justice. One of the charges says that Bonds lied when he testified that no one but his personal doctor ever injected him.
