The Vick Plea Bargin

I know a lot of people are happy to hear that Vick pled guilty today, I would not be one of them. I'm very disappointed in the Federal Prosecuters for cutting a sweetheart deal for Vick. In my opinion the Fed's really let Michael write his own deal and showed no back bone what so ever.

First,they have one solid case given the indictment, there were more charges that could be filed by Feds and were threatend to be filed. Vick was given a deadline and he was allowed to miss it and still keep the deal and no additional charges. Of all the charges in the indictment, he's only pled guilty to 1 of them. Rumors are they will ask for prison time to be 12-36 months.

I'm just disgusted by the actions of the US attornies, there is no excuse for such a plea bargin. I certainly hope States Attorney will come thru with set of charges against Vick and will not plea him out like the Feds. How fitting would that be, the Feds swoop in and take over the investigation because the State isn't doing a good job, moving slow. When the race ends, the Feds whimp out and fall short of the finish line with the State possibly sprinting forward to cross it with a solid case.

Vick's public statement is nothing short of insulting. He apologizes?? Apologize to all the dogs you murdered, tortured and mutilated. Apologize to the 66 dogs that will be murdered because of what you have done to them.

We can only sit back and wait for the terms and hope that the Federal Judge will show the back bone the US attornies didn't. That he will take a stand for justice given the crimes committed by Vick.

We also sit and wait to see how Mr. Goodell will handle the plea. I honestly hope Mr. Goodell will stand behind his "code of conduct" and ban vick for life. He openly lied Goodell and Blank about being involved.

This whole thing has just been sickening.
