Federal prosecutors will ask a judge to order Chronicle reporters
Mark Fainaru-Wada and
Lance Williams to reveal who leaked star players' admissions that they had taken illegal performance-enhancing drugs. The two could be held in contempt and jailed until they agree to talk, or until the grand jury term expires. "It's going to be a very difficult battle'' for the Chronicle reporters, says
Douglas Mirell, a media attorney who isn't involved in the case.
