Thanks . .this is true. All of the information is not and won't be in the indictment, but I am hoping that have some significant evidence. And as you know "eyewitness accounts" are always questionable. It will remain to be seen how much they really saw or whether it was just what they "heard" Actually, I have not heard of these reports about him moving dogs only him sending money for dogs to be purchased in other states (via the indictment) which were subsequently used in dog fights in both VA and NC. Apparently there is a Federal Statute that makes dog fighting, and the gaming of it, illegal (that is my recollection of the indictment, but I could be wrong).

Given those reports, I'm not so sure the media coverage has been as heavy-handed as some claim - I think it's been surprisingly fair, honestly.

I would have to disagree when you look at it in relation to the NBA referee situation. Again, that is far more egregious in my eyes vs. Vick and dog fighting. . . but that is jmo.
