    Default They gonna get vick Part 2

    this May 22, 2007 file photo, one of three dogs removed from a house owned by ... Report: Vick Bet Big on Dog Fight

    By The Associated Press

    document.write(getElapsed("20070527T194720Z"));2 hours agoUPDATED 34 MINUTES AGO

    Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was at a dog fight in 2000 and is "one of the heavyweights" in the sport, ESPN reported. The network Sunday cited a police informant whom a dog-fighting investigator called "extremely reliable."

    "That's who bets a large dollar," the informant said on the show "Outside the Lines." "And they have the money to bet large money. As I'm talking about large money, 30 to 40 thousand, even higher. He's one of the heavyweights."

    When asked how he knows Vick bets that amount, the informant said, "because I've seen it."

    The informant said his dog beat Vick's dog in 2000, the year before Vick was chosen by the Falcons with the first overall pick in the NFL draft.

    Investigator David Hunt said information from the informant has "resulted in the arrest of several individuals over the past few years, numerous search warrants, as well as convictions."

    Surry County (Va.) Commonwealth attorney Gerald Poindexter said Friday he is confident charges will be brought in the investigation of a possible dog-fighting operation at a house then owned by Vick. Dog fighting is a felony in Virginia.

    Police raided the rural home April 25 as part of a drug investigation. They seized 66 dogs, 55 of them pit bulls, and equipment that could be associated with dog fighting.

    Vick has said he let a cousin, Davon Boddie, live at the house, and he didn't know a large kennel on the property could be involved in criminal activity.

    He's not going to jail. Not w/ practice starting and the preseason coming up in a few months. When you are rich, celeb, and friends in high places you dont go to jail for dog fights lol.

    Uhm.. its an informant without any credibility whatsoever, someone could be lining his pockets to say this. If Vick was at dog fights there would have been substancial evidence by now.

    Lets use logic for a second, very small town in Virginia where Vick is from and very well known walks into a place where there is dog fighting. I know SOMEONE has a camera, cameraphone.. something or multiple people will recognize him.

    If he's guilty it should not be so hard to prove, nothing will come of it.

    That is where the investigation is, Surrey County. Heres another question I have, unless Vick was stacked financially before he was drafted how can he be a heavyweight in dog fighting while he's in college? Just curious..
