Prosecutors Strike Out, Clemens Walks For Now

MARY LOUISE KELLY, Host:

It's MORNING EDITION from NPR News. Good morning. I'm Mary Louise Kelly.

STEVE INSKEEP, Host:

The perjury trial of former pitching star Roger Clemens has blown up. On just the second day of the trial, Judge Reggie Walton declared a mistrial. He says prosecutors indelibly tainted Clemens' ability to get a fair trial by exposing the jury to inadmissible evidence. It is not yet clear whether prosecutors will get a second chance. NPR legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg has our story this morning.
