Selena Roberts (born May 16, 1966 in Live Oak, Florida) is an American author and sportswriter.
[2] In a February 7, 2009 article on SI.com that quickly made the cover of Sports Illustrated, Roberts revealed that Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez tested positive for steroids in 2003.
The biography links the slugger's tabloid-like fame and use of performance-enhancing drugs with an unquenchable desire for attention, and his father, Victor, who abandoned him at ten years old.
Roberts criticized the university as well as the team for a culture that prohibited "snitching"[5] on the later exonerated lacrosse players.
The falsely accused players were cleared of any wrongdoing and the lead prosecutor Mike Nifong was disbarred.
