Source: Vick 'one of the heavyweights' in dogfighting

LOL, funny. They still have to put him at an actual dog fight in that house though, that will seal the deal...

No they don't. In Virginia it is a felony to have a dog fight occur at your property. It obviously is Vick's property so the sole thing they have to prove is dogfighting occurred at all. They don't have to prove he was there. They don't have to prove he knew about it. Sure those things may open him up to additional charges, but he can still be found guilty of a felony without any participation at all.

Forensics are going to be a lagniappe if those are adult dogs, but I agree overall.

Porky--to answer your question, Pointdexter is black.

ummm...i dont know wtf that means and I consider myself well read. damnit icak, now i have to hit wiki.
me thinks, i need a refund on my education.

from wiki:

Lagniappe means a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase, such as a 13th beignet when buying a dozen, or more broadly something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure; a bonus.[1] The word is used in Trinidad and Tobago, Puerto Rico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, the gulf coast of Alabama [2] and south-eastern Texas. It was also once in common usage by antiquarian booksellers, without regional limitation, and is still used by more old-fashioned members of that tribe.
 
OK--someone go watch the Davon Boddie interview linked at profootballtalk.com in the rumormill--I can't make it work.

I saw a clip of an interview with him today and he had all the classic body and eye language of a liar--looking down and away when saying Vick was never at the property, etc. PFT reports he claimed some or all of the dogs were planted--I'm curious if that is true.

SH--I bet you'll use that word now. Love that one and it really doesn't have an adequate synonym. Some other colloquial definitions I have heard for it are--something to fill in the corners (my favorite) and a little bit extra.

So how much jail time do you think this merits, at very least? At most?

Dogfighting is a felony under both Federal and Virginia Law. Depends on how many counts, and other offenses charged, such as money laundering, engaging in organized criminal activity, tax evasion, etc.

I'd say a minimum of 15-20 years easy.

Vick is free now because of his cousin. If they can't prove his cousin's lie wrong, then Vick is a free man.

LOL You really need to read more of the thread and pay attention to what the statute requires. That and an exculpatory statement from a guy who claims the dogs were planted on the property isn't going to carry any weight with anyone other than blind Vick lovers.

Like he has no reason to lie? Are you saying a drug dealer is a credible witness? Not to mention related to someone who is beining linked, yep he has no reason what so ever to lie.

Glad you are not running the legal system because only non-celeb white guys would goto prison. Between Nifong, err I mean Nagin, crap I mean Poindexter and this mental genius using the race card is always very indicative of someone being innocent.

i only meant in the sense that they get him for every aspect of his involvement & not letting him get off the hook for anything. It's obvious that dogfighting was going on there, but if they really want to nail him, why not go for the jugular?

I and everyone else already knew he was dead to rights with this stuff going on at his property, proving that he knew it was going on was always the thing that would have him dead in the water.
