Report: Segui appears before Clemens grand jury
WASHINGTON — Former major leaguer David Segui has appeared before the federal grand jury investigating Roger Clemens for perjury.
The New York Daily News reported that Segui testified for about 90 minutes Thursday. Segui declined comment to the paper as he left the grand jury room.
Segui told the Daily News earlier this month that he didn’t know if Clemens used performance-enhancing drugs, but he expected to be questioned about the vials, needles and bloodstained gauze that Clemens’ former trainer gave to investigators in 2008, claiming it was evidence Clemens used steroids.
Brian McNamee told investigators he had told Segui about the medical waste about 10 years ago. If Segui confirmed McNamee’s account, he would undermine one possible Clemens defense.
