Admitting Guilt

In the AP's article posted in the Dallas Morning News they discuss Miguel Tejeda's plead of guilt for lying to the government about taking steroids. The document shows a plea agreement made by Tejeda which could land his anywhere from year in jail or deportation. The public finds this a good timing considering it came one day after superstar Alex Rodriguez admitted his own guilt in using performance enhancing drugs. In January of 2008 the House Panel asked the Justice Department to investigate if Tejeda lied. During their discussions a plea agreement was reached and Tejeda will appear in court on Wednesday February 11th. Tejeda will be the first big market superstar to admit his lying towards the U.S. Government.
