| 26th September, 2007 - 8:30 am |  Washington Post - Suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick and three co-defendants were indicted again yesterday, this time on state charges stemming from their operation of a dogfighting ring at Vick's property in southeastern Virginia.
A grand jury in Surry County, Va., indicted Vick on one count of beating or killing or causing dogs to fight other dogs and one count of engaging in or promoting dogfighting. He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted, in addition to the 12 to 18 months he is expected to receive in December as a result of his guilty plea on similar charges in federal court.
Grand jurors declined to indict Vick on eight additional counts. Those could have landed the star quarterback in prison for an additional 40 years. [READ] |
