The 19-page indictment alleged Vick was highly involved in the operation, alleging that he attended fights and paid off bets when his dogs lost. It said he also was involved in the executions of dogs that did not perform well. The dogfighting operation Michael Vick and three co-defendants are accused of running was named "Bad Newz Kennels," according to the indictment, and the dogs were housed, trained and fought at a Surry County, Va., property owned by Vick.

    Extractions: Vick was charged with illegal competitive dogfighting, which involves training pit bulls to fight against other dogs. When authorities searched Vick's property this month, they found 54 pit bulls and a host of brutal items including a "rape stand," used to hold dogs in place for mating; an electric treadmill modified for dogs and a bloodied piece of carpeting. Graves of seven pit bulls were found inside "Bad Newz Kennels," a Virginia property owned by Vick. The dogs were allegedly killed after testing whether they would be good fighters. According to documents, dogfights would end when one dog died or backed down, and dogs were sometimes put to death by drowning, strangulation, hanging, gunshot, electrocution or some other method.

    Extractions: YONKERS, N.Y. - Police found the bodies of two pit bulls in trash bags behind a college and also rescued 15 caged dogs, some scarred and emaciated, at a house with a dogfighting pit in the basement. Police Commissioner Edward Hartnett said there was some evidence the two discoveries were connected to each other and to two other pit bulls, crippled from dogfights, found in January in a trash bin at a gas station. One of those dogs died. "It's something going on all over the country," the commissioner said of dogfighting. "There are certain people in our society who find this type of activity entertaining." The scarred, dead dogs found Wednesday were in black garbage bags behind the College of Mount St. Vincent, just over the Bronx line from Yonkers. The discovery of the 15 pit bulls in Yonkers came during a Tuesday night raid by narcotics police, Hartnett said. Besides cocaine, drug packaging and nearly $16,000 in cash, the police found a 3-foot-high Plexiglas fighting enclosure, treadmills for dogs, weighted neck chains for training, a whip and syringes used for medicating the animals, officials said.

Read All Prosecutors have announced that a Virginia grand jury has indicted Michael Vick on state dogfighting charges. Vick is charged with one count of unlawfully torturing and killing dogs and one count of promoting dogfights. These charges come in the wake of a federal indictment and Vick's plea agreement with federal prosecutors, agreeing to plead guilty to federal conspiracy charges involving illegal dogfighting. This is the latest in a long line of animal abuse cases involving NFL players. While the speed and efficiency with which prosecutors handled this case is a victory for animals and a sign that the crime of dogfighting is being treated with the gravity that it deserves, the NFL needs to follow suit.

    Extractions: " Of all the creatures, man is the most detestable. Of the entire brood, he is the only one that possesses malice. He is the only creature that inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain. The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot. "Mark Twain THOUGHTS ON DOG FIGHTING The American Pit Bull Terrier's story is mired in sad reality. Some fanciers, many who call themselves "dogmen", claim that in order to produce the real APBT, the dogs must be fought so they can prove their gameness (i.e. willingness to keep going despite pain and exhaustion). In their opinion, only the candidates that don't quit a fight are true representatives of the breed and should be bred - The others are called "curs" and eliminated. Those people firmly believe that the abolishment of "Gametesting" would destroy the APBT breed. They therefore feel completely justified to continue exploiting dogs by forcing them into the worse possible form of abuse.

    Extractions: Bon App©tit Management Company ... Going Global for Farm Animals » Last Tuesday on "The View," when the discussion turned to Michael Vick's dogfighting crimes, co-host Whoopi Goldberg seemed to defend Vick , saying that dogfighting was "part of his cultural upbringing." The next day she clarified her remarks and said she condemned dogfighting. But before she made amends, we heard from many who were upset by her sentiments. Among the comments we received: I am glad to see that others are just as insulted and hurt as I am over Ms. Goldberg's false and despicable comments about the Deep South and our culture! ABC's "The View" has swept the whole issue under the rug without an apology or correction of the ludicrous statements that were made. In all my years of living in the Deep South, I have never known anyone that was affiliated with dogfighting, or known anyone that thought dogfighting was a part of Southern culture. Dogfighting, animal torture and killing innocent animals is just as despised in the South as it is in the rest of the country. —Donna

Reyes, the alleged operator of Big Apple kennels, which has produced some of the fiercest fighting dogs on the professional circuit, lets the dogs out twice a day to eat and exercise - an hour in the morning and evening - in the concrete yard strewn with used condoms, Dutch Masters cigar wrappers, and the kind of tiny baggies used to hold illegal drugs. Last week, Reyes told The Post that he could have been shut down years ago, but that the ASPCA - despite finding an animal with obvious fighting injuries - let him off scot-free.

He had scars, physically and emotionally, probably from being used as bait for dogs training to fight. Kennels across America are full of pit bulls that have been mistreated or abandoned by their owners. The Humane Society estimates that 40 percent of dogs in shelters are pit bulls, outnumbering all other breeds. And there is a reason why. Pit bulls are the most popular breed used in dogfighting, a blood sport that exists in an underground world, coming to light only through rare, high-profile cases. The latest came last month when Virginia police, on a drug investigation
