(AP) -- Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was indicted Tuesday by a federal grand jury on charges related to illegal dogfighting. Vick and three others were charged with violating federal laws against competitive dogfighting, procuring and training pit bulls for fighting and conducting the enterprise across state lines. The indictment alleges that Vick and his co-defendants began sponsoring dogfighting in early 2001, the former Virginia Tech star's rookie year with the Falcons. It accuses Vick, Purnell A. Peace, Quanis L. Phillips and Tony Taylor of "knowingly sponsoring and exhibiting an animal fighting venture," of conducting a business enterprise involving gambling, as well as buying, transporting and receiving dogs for the purposes of an animal fighting venture. Telephone messages left at the offices and home of Vick's attorney, Larry Woodward, were not immediately returned. A woman who answered the phone at the home of Vick's mother said the family knew nothing about the charges.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 178 | Re: Michael Vick indicted If he is found guilty of any of those charges.. He is done in the NFL.. No team will touch him... I always enjoyed watching Vic play, and he seemed like a decent guy in interviews. It will be a shame if he is involved with what he is being charged with... It's hard to believe he would be involved with it. He is one of the highest paid players in the NFL, and gets I believe in the neighborhood of 10 million a year from that alone... He also pulled in quite a bit more in endorsments... Dog fighting is usualy done for profit.. Vic I am sure has more than enough.. My guess is he let the people doing it live in his house, and he probably had knowlege that they were breeding the dogs, and having dog fights on the property. I think it will be hard to prove unless there are a few credible witnesses who saw Vic at the fights. Vic is also going to have the best lawyers money can buy defending him, wich makes a huge difference.. |
