Michael Vick Officially Pleads Guilty

Posted Aug 27th 2007 10:41AM by TMZ Staff

Michael Vick pleaded guilty Monday to a federal dogfighting charge. He is now awaiting a sentencing date that could send him to prison to serve some serious time.

Vick, who is suspended indefinitely by the NFL, entered his guilty plea before a U.S. District Court judge in Richmond, VA.

Sources inside the courtroom report that Vick was stoic during the proceeding.

U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson, who accepted Vick's plea, asked the QB, "Are you entering the plea of guilty to a conspiracy charge because you are in fact guilty?" Vick quickly answered, "Yes, sir." The judge replied, "You're taking your chances here. You'll have to live with whatever decision I make."

9. To "Get real":

What "problem"??? That we care more about mindless dogs than we do about people?

You need to stop and think about your life and what you consider to be important. Or maybe see a psychiatrist???

Posted at 10:52AM on Aug 27th 2007 by YOU are the problem, you knee-jerk reactionist

10. To "perspective"....how stupid are you? They may be "just dogs" but that doesn't mean they don't feel pain and suffer every bit as much as a human would. You're an idiot.

12. They should give him the max - 5 years. Then the state should go after him as well. He's an animal, and should be treated like one - like he did with his animals.

13. That's the problem... you take these basically street thug kids and give them millions of dollars to play ball but still inside they are the thug they were when they were found. Just because you give them money it doesn't mean that they still don't have the same mentality that they grew up with.
