Re: Vick Sentenced to 23 months in Prison
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)
