Read the INDICTMENT not just news articles that are summarizing the charges.

In the Indictment witnesses put Vick AT Several dog fights.

Witnesses also give EXACT amounts of money changing hands, including the $26,000 fight in Which VICK himself has to go out to his car to get the cash.

The indictment also charges Vick with PERSONALLY helping in the execution of several dogs.

I just found the .pdf file of the indictment and, you’re correct, it does explicitly tie Vick to three or four events, and you referenced those in your comment above.

It’s worth noting that the majority of the events do not include Vick, or include him in an odd way. I was a bit surprised that, in many other paragraphs, the indictment language uses a very unclear passive voice is denoting who did what, or in other paragraphs omits Vick’s name but uses the others, or in others uses Vick’s name as one of the names in describing the collective enterprise, rather than describing his acts personally.

So — if we assume that the facts alleged are true, than Vick was more than an absentee landlord. We’ll have to see what kind of defense he can put up against the testimony of his buddies, who are being squeezed hard.
