Clemens issues subpoena to House oversight panel

Washington (AP) — Roger Clemens has issued a subpoena to the
House committee that he’s accused of lying to about using
performance-enhancing drugs during his pitching career.
The former
baseball star wants all interview summaries, notes and memoranda
related to the hearing on steroid use in Major League Baseball held
three years ago by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
That
includes communications between the committee and 20 people, including
retired baseball players Jose Canseco, Chuck Knoblauch and Andy
Pettitte. The committee revealed Friday that the list also includes
Clemens’ former personal trainer Brian McNamee, who told investigators
he injected Clemens with performance-enhancing drugs.
Clemens told
the committee that he never used steroids or human growth hormone. He
is facing perjury, false statement and obstruction of Congress charges
in federal court.
