Michael Vick, once considered a superstar in the making and a fresh face for the NFL in the 21st century, now is a defendant in a federal criminal indictment related to alleged dogfighting on his property in Surry County, Va.
A grand jury in Richmond yesterday indicted Vick and three other men. They are charged with competitive dogfighting, training pit bulls for fighting and conducting the enterprise across state lines.
Vick, 27, and his fellow defendants are alleged to have begun a fighting operation in 2001 in which dogs that lost but were not killed in the battle sometimes were eliminated by electrocution, drowning, hanging, gunshots or being banged on the ground.
Eight dogs allegedly were killed in April after being deemed unworthy to fight.
