UNC to Remove Marion Jones Pics From Displays
Posted Dec 12, 2007
The University of North Carolina will remove several images of Marion Jones after the IOC's decision Wednesday to formally strip her of her five Olympic medals. She admitted in court in October that she used performance-enhancing drugs. The International Olympic Committee also banned the disgraced American athlete from attending next year's Beijing Olympics in any capacity and said it could bar her from future games.
