‘This makes three of Vick’s co-defendants who’ve been flipped. What’s worse for him, the Feds are putting on serious pressure by threatening to file a superseding indictment with “at least two more Federal dog fighting charges.” His only hope now seems to be an OJ jury.’
He’ll never stand trial now. Its not just the three ‘co-defendents’ here. People are forgetting Vick’s ‘cousin’ that lived in the house, and obviously was part of the ‘day to day operation’ of the Kennel. He wasn’t indicted.
The only way that happens in a Federal investigation is if he copt a deal BEFORE, or immediately after, the story broke.
Smart money says Vick takes the plea bargain by ‘close of business’ Friday afternoon (4PM EST).
Watch and see. He’s going to prison.
IF I had to guess I would say :
5 years probation, hefty fine ($250K or higher), hundreds of hours of community service (most likely at humane shelters).
Vick will then make a tearful apology on Television, he will accept a one year ban from the NFL (before they even do it), he will also pledge a very large donation to the Humane Society and/or PETA.
The Atlanta Falcons will cut ties with Vick, and he will sign with someone else next year at a greatly reduced salary.
