Vick Sentenced to 23 months in Prison

firstdown · 07-08-2008, 03:22 PM

They also had an article today in the same paper talking about what happened to all the dogs removed from his home. These numbers I'm using are very close but I cannot remember the exact numbers. Total dogs removed was around 44, 22 have been placed in homes, 2 or maybe 3 put down, 21 or 22 still working on them and trying to get them prepared for adoption.

Wow...but who would want to take on a dog trained for fighting. Maybe someone with a ranch who can let the dog out of the house to run around. I wouldn't want to sleep in the same house as a Vick dog though. It's not the dog's fault, but I doubt that's training that can be undone very easily.

He owes between $10M and $50M?

That's quite the range.

what the hell could he have bought that would put him into that much debt?

the state (VA) plans to press charges but is waiting until he's out of jail to save themselves the costs of transporting him to & fro his current home/fed prison, which l last heard was in Kansas.

At least that's the word from the Surry Co. prosecutor.

I think the state should leave the guy alone. He's lost his career, spent 2 years and jail and then the state is going to try and put him back in jail?? I think that's BS. Enough is enough.

I think its overkill to go after Vick, why not spend some resources going after other people who are still doing what Vick did?

Where did that come from?

DiehardSkin88 · 07-09-2008, 02:32 PM

I think he owes his money to the falcons and all his sponsorship, you cant just back out of contracts cuz of legal problems, you will owe money. So i dont think its what he's spent but from all his contracts

He doe owe the Falcons around 3.5 mil but I don't think so with the sponsors. Sponsors have in their contracts clauses to let them out of the deal if the player has legal or other issues. They want to get away as fast as they can so people forget they ever had anything to do with them.

I'm hesitant to call him a "victim" but the main reason surry co. wants to pursue the state charges is so that the prosecutor can save face. The feds got involved after the story broke & it was said that Poindexter (prosecutor) was reluctant to get a warrant because it was Vick & he didn't want to mess w/him. Now he has to show that he's tough on dog fighting.

Ironic, but after almost avoiding it because of his celebrity, if he faces charges by the state it's mainly because of his celebrity.

btw, I was in Surry county last week, beautiful place, always like to stop in there. I didn't see any dog fights or evidence of such, but I did witness a toothless redneck girl singing garth brooks at a waterside karaoke joint. (no offense if any of you are, or are affiliated w/toothless redneck girls)

Baltimore is supposedly one of the worst places in the country as far as the popularity and frequency of dog fights.
