Hopefully the IRS & legal system can hit him were it hurts!!! I feel like I've signed every petition available against this guy...as far as the whole "who cares" attitude; I have been guilting the local community up with anyone with any compassion for animals what-so-ever! Sorry rant over.

I agree, euthanasia is the best option for them, but its horrible they have to die because of what this coward did to them. He should be put to jail for life as well.

Ya, it would be nice if they locked him up forever. That won't happen though. :(
At least it's something.
It's a shame that the dogs were forced to give up their lives for his dumb actions. They would have to be euthanized though or else it would just cause more problems; more attacks, more bad reps.
Reading through all the news articles show that there are still fans of him and they think he has it rough now. Of course we are all glad that he has it "rough".
What really angers me was on one article I read (it wasn't a recent one; I just did a google search and looked at the news part about 2 weeks ago maybe)had comments so I was looking through those and found that one of the comments said something like "Any man who is helping destroy the population of pit bulls is someone we support." and then said something about how then they want rotties and dobies gone too. That really ticked me off. I was going to post it but the internet wasn't cooperating. =/ I think I might look for it if anyone would like to comment back on it.

For what it's worth I think every single cent from Michael Vick's bank account should go to housing and looking after the dogs found on his property, no matter if they were trained to fight. An animal behaviourist could help some of them, and why should they die because of him and his disgusting friends? So it takes years of expensive care to keep them alive. I think they deserve to live, he's the one who deserves the punishment. They all need some care and kindness, something I'm sure they have never experienced thus far.

While the prosecutor on the case is recommending a sentence of 12-18 months, the judge is under no obligation to keep to that sentencing guideline. He can sentence Vick to a longer sentence, up to and including the maximum of 5 years, or for less time.

Unfortunately for Mr. Vick, the particular judge that is presiding over these cases has a reputation for going over the normal sentencing guidelines, so Vick is liable to be sentenced for a longer period the 12-18 months. I've also heard that this judge is very very good at seeing through insincere pleas, and that if Vick goes before this judge and is anything but completely remorseful and repentant, and he shows the smart aleck attitude and smirk that he's been displaying in the interviews/photos I've seen, Judge Henry Hudson is going to be on him, if you will excuse the phrasing, like a pack of dogs on a 3-legged cat.

Add to this that the judge here seems to find the details of this case particularly offensive (like most normal people do) and has told the other 2 guys who pled out last week (Peace and Phillips) that they need to expect an 'upward departure' from the sentencing guidelines. As Vick was the last of the 4 to plea out, and he only did so because of the mountain of evidence, oh and like 7 govt witnesses willing to testify against him, I would expect and hope that of the 4 that went into court on July 17, because he was the last to fold, he will get the lengthiest sentence.
