Vick's Co-defendant gunna deal

[3kings]

It costs a great deal of money to build a case of this magnitude. There are many jurisdictions involved, local,state and federal. How come there has been no further mention of the drugs? Dog fighting happens in seedy sections of most cities on any given weekend but is not prosecuted to this extent. Let me stress that I think it is a dispicable crime, but does not warrant this type of prosecution.

Oh yes it does when you are an NFL QB. If it was not prosecuted to the fullest you would get the "oh there goes another entertainer getting off light". These are the days. If you are in the limelight and commit a Federal crime, expect to get hit.

i think anyone involved in a federal crime should look out. i would imagine that once the surface was scratched, they found elements of a huge case, not the typical small time dog fighting. this covers multiple states, multiple crimes, and a lot of money changing hands--what they call an ongoing criminal enterprise.

"Peace and Phillips each have drug convictions and were ordered to submit to testing, as well as an electronic monitoring program."


that's from an article on fox sports online.

two of the defendants have to report for drug testing--sounds to me that they are up on drug charges, as the other two do not. also have electric monitoring on those two. repeat offenders, or facing charges beyond the dog case.

also, i'd hate to see money cited as a reason not to investigate crimes. again, most fed, state, local are paid to work regardless of type of case.
