Marion Jones
Marion Jones won 3 gold medals and 2 bronze at the 2000 Olympics held in Sydney, Australia. All the medals and prizes that she had won were taken away from her in 2007 and all her records were erased , because here name was found in the BALCO scandal. The BALCO scandal was a ring that supplied steroids to famous athletes.
Marion Jones later admitted that she used steroids in the Sydney Olympics. She also lied about how she used steroid to two grand juries. She was then convicted of lying in front of a court group and was sent jail to six months. She served her time in jail from March to September 2008.
I felt that she did something wrong ,very wrong that she won't be able to take back. She lied to the whole world and there was probably a lot of kids that thought she was amazing and they idolized her. I know that she had a child and imagine how it would be if she was your mom.
