Poor choices did in Marion Jones
Posted Jan 17, 2008
Marion Jones did cheat, she did lie and she did lie about cheating - so she has to suffer the consequences. Still, I cannot help but to feel sorry for her. The 32-year-old mother of two will be taken away from her children, the youngest of which is still nursing, to serve a prison sentence. The story is sad, but the message is clear. We all face consequences for our behavior - always.
