Marion Jones, the Olympic sprinter, was on the top of the world. She was in American Express and Gatorade commercials. She was cashing in on her fame and her good looks. All of that has changed in the last several months. Her endorsements dried up as allegations of steroid usage began to grow louder and louder. Recently she was found to have taken a banned substance and was stripped of her 5 gold medals. She has just plead guilty to lying to investigators on a check fraud scheme. She has been sentenced to 6 months in jail. How terribly sad. ————-
