In the Shadow of Marion Jones
The fallout from the Marion Jones steroids scandal has been large and wide. Someone directly affected was Chryste Gaines, one of Jones' teammates on the bronze-medal winning United States 100-meter relay team at the 2000 Olympic games in Sydney, Australia. It has been widely publicized that Jones was stripped of her medals and ordered by the United States Olympic Committee to return them. Chairman Peter Ueberroth then said that the rest of the team should also give their awards back, a gesture that would also hold symbolic value.
