5. I'd be interested in knowing if the government has subpoenaed
Anderson for testimony at trial. If he hasn't they should be shot.

The year he spent in prison was for refusing to obey a grand jury subpoena. Once the GJ handed up their indictments, my guess would be that any subpoena outstanding would be unenforceable, thus Anderson being released from prison.

I think Anderson knows he's in a no-win situation. If he's forced to go before the judge he'll either bury Bonds, or risk facing his own perjury and obstruction charges since the documents were taken from his house.

My own personal guess is that the judge would not be too happy if Anderson doesn't appear in her chambers before the trial starts but at the same time, I don't think she'll let the prosection make him take the stand without knowing what he'll say.
