Hunter told Internal Revenue Service investigators that he injected his then-wife with banned substances and saw Jones inject herself with the drugs at their home in Australia, the San Francisco Chronicle said.

Hunter, the 1999 world shot put champion, tested positive for steroids four times in 2000 -- when he was married to Jones.
