Marion Jones,32, former U.S. sprinter, has reportedly exited from federal prison in Texas earlier today. She served a six-month sentence for lying to prosecutors about her steroid use that perhaps (most likely) made it possible for her winning five medals at the Sydney Olympics in 2000.
After denying using performance-enhancing drugs for years, Jones finally plead guilty to two charges of perjury and was sentenced by a federal judge in New York in January. She prison stint began on March 7.
Marion has been stripped of all of her medals, three of which are gold and any mention of her performances as of September 2000 have been removed from all record books.
Jones has two children, Tim Montogomery Jr.,5 (dad is Tim Montomery) and she and husband Obadele Thompson, have one child together, who turned one in July.
I'm sure it must have been difficult to be away from her kids - especially her baby, when the first months of bonding are so vital. Lessons learned, lessons learned.
