The panel failed to reach a verdict on Monday. They listened to a re-reading of the testimony of Kathy Hoskins, Bonds' childhood friend and later his personal shopper, Monday morning and then returned to the jury room for deliberations. Hoskins testified in the trial that she saw Bonds' trainer inject him with a syringe at his home in 2002. Defense lawyers argued that the woman lied about the incident to help her brother Steve Hoskins, also a key witness, who had a bitter dispute with Bonds that could have resulted in criminal charges. Major League Baseball's home run king is accused of lying to a federal grand jury in 2003 about knowingly taking anabolic steroids and getting injections from anyone but his doctors.
