Sprinter Tim Montgomery Facing Jail Time
Sprinter Tim Montgomery, who was once the world’s fastest man, is sitting in jail waiting for his hearing on drug distribution charges. Montgomery faces charges of conspiracy to possess heroin with an intent to distribute the drug. In addition, he is also being sentenced in connection with a check fraud case.
Tim Montgomery’s fall from grace started in 2005 when he received a two-year doping ban that wiped out his world record 100 meter time from September 2002 when he was banned based on evidence which linked him to the BALCO scandal and THG, a steriod drug.
