FBI Begins Probe Into Possible Clemens Perjury

 CBS News Interactive: The Mitchell Report

WASHINGTON (AP) ― The FBI has opened an investigation into whether baseball great Roger Clemens lied to Congress when he denied taking steroids or other performance-enhancing drugs.

Law enforcement officials say the inquiry will focus on whether Clemens or his former personal trainer Brian McNamee lied when they testified under oath about the use of steroids.

In testimony Feb 13 , Clemens told Congress he never used either drug. McNamee testified that he injected the seven-time Cy Young Award winner with steroids and human growth hormone at least 16 times from 1998 to 2001.

The FBI inquiry was prompted by a request Thursday from the House Oversight Committee, which singled out statements by Clemens as possibly false.
