Tim Montgomery, Former Olympic Track Star, Sentenced to Five Years for Heroin

Former Olympic track star Tim Montgomery has been sentenced to five years in prison on heroin charges in Virginia.

Montgomery, the ex-husband of Olympic star Marion Jones, was sentenced Friday in U.S. District Court to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and distribution of more than 100 grams of heroin. He entered his guilty plea in July under an agreement with the government.

Montgomery will serve the five-year term after he completes a four-year prison sentence he's serving on fraud charges for a bad check conspiracy in New York.

Montgomery won an Olympic gold medal in the 400-meter relay at the 2000 Sydney Games and a silver in the same event in the 1996 Atlanta Games. A doping scandal has eliminated his accomplishments from the record books.
