Prosecutor says dog fighting investigation "moving forward"
HANK KURZ Jr.
Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. - The prosecutor in the investigation of a possible dog fighting operation at a house owned by Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick is confident charges will be brought. He can't yet say who will be charged.
"We are moving forward," Surry County Commonwealth attorney Gerald Poindexter said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press on Friday. He declined to set a timetable for when evidence in the case would be ready to present to a grand jury.
Police raided the home as part of a drug investigation on April 25. They seized 66 dogs, 55 of them pit bulls, and equipment that could be associated with dog fighting.

going from bad to worse.... link
He arrived at the hotel room, where our cameras were set up, in a T-shirt and jeans. "I'm nervous," he said, surveying our lights and camera equipment. "I've never done anything like this before."
Our confidential source said he's been involved in dog fighting for more than 30 years. He has trained and fought -- by his estimation -- about 2,000 pit bulls and was poised to tell "Outside the Lines" about the time in 2000 when his dog squared off against a dog owned by someone he referred to as one of the "heavyweights" of the dog fighting world: Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick.
"He's a pit bull fighter," the source said of Vick. "He's one of the ones that they call 'the big boys': that's who bets a large dollar. And they have the money to bet large money. As I'm talking about large money -- $30,000 to $40,000 -- even higher. He's one of the heavyweights."......cont. |

Other than him getting his ACL torn, this is the next best thing. |

This is all happening back in 2000 right? So the obvious question is how was Vick a "heavyweight" betting 30-40K a fight while he was still at VT? He wasn't drafted until 2001 right? Hmmmm.....
I'm thinking ATL might be regretting that Schaub trade right about now with only Harrington waiting in the wings.

I believe there was a lot of talk about improper benefits for D.Hall as an amateur at VT.
