UPDATE:  Vick's Sentencing and Startling Admissions   12/11/07

We still don't know why Michael Vick decided to turn himself in early, when he had until today at 10:00 a.m. EST to surrender to U.S. marshals for sentencing and incarceration on federal dogfighting charges.  This writer speculates it having to do with attempting to look responsible for United States District Judge Henry E. Hudson, whom Vick will appear before this morning.

Two of Vick's three co-defendants have already received prison sentences within the standard federal guidelines, which could be a sign in Vick's favor - or not.  Purnell Peace was sentenced to 18 months, and Quanis Phillips to 21 months in prison (Tony Taylor, the co-defendant, will be sentenced December 14th).

Federal guidelines set the prison term for Vick's offense at 12 to 18 months.  Judge Hudson, however, is not bound by those guidelines, and may impose a prison term as long as five years.


The dogs can't speak...but you can!  If you are reading this before 10:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, the trial hasn't started yet.  By law, you are allowed to make contact with Judge Hudson to give him your input.

If you have something to say about Vick's cruel and vicious crime, give him a quick buzz, and tell him how you believe Vick's sentencing should go!  Here is his contact info.
