Roger Clemens found not guilty of perjury: The former baseball pitcher faced a seven-week long trial over whether he lied to a Congressional panel on his steroid usage back in 2008. Accusations that Clemens (among other players) used steroids date back to the Mitchell Report, produced by former Sen. George Mitchell in 2007. After a few days of deliberations, which largely hinged on the word of his former strength coach Brian McNamee, the jury sided with Clemens, finding him not guilty of all charges. More as we get it.
