MLB star Tejada pleads guilty over misleading congress about doping.
He became first MLB star to be involved into use of banned steroids.
In a congressional hearing, he had cited no knowledge of any substance
being used in MLB. Consequences of pleading guilty can be far fetching
for him. Laws are powerful and he might be deported back to Dominican
Republic. Tejada has apologized for his mistakes and seek pardon from
his fans. Substance use is banned in many games and all gaming
authorities have strict code of conduct and policies again any use of
steroids and other substances. If found guilty and convicted Tejada
might be jailed and banned for playing further MLB events in future.
