THAT WE KNOW OF
are the key words.....
Nonone knows shit except for the prosecution and defense...they don't let out evedince until AFTER the case is over.....
and with that being said the # of guilty pleas already and the vick lawyers working a deal should tell you there is evidence.
youre right, there is evidence. TO CONVICT THE THREE LIVING THERE. now they have to prove that vick KNOWINGLY GAVE MONEY TO THEM FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF DOGFIGHTING. beyond a reasonable doubt.
vick starts up breedig business for buddies.
vick gives them 3000 to maintain business.
buddies get busted fighting dogs without vicks knowledge.
prosecutor and usda want vick for dogfighting.
buddies roll to save their ass.
thats enough to resemble reasonable doubt.
the prosecution now has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that vick knowingly gave those boys money for dogfighting. if all the evidence they have against vick is the word of these cooperating witnesses then he is beating this case. those dudes credibility will be shredded so they better have evidence PROVING vick KNEW what they were doing.
im not saying this is what happened but i cant think of any other gameplan the defense would go for. you have to put away in the back of your mind the fact that its likely vick knew about this situation. the jury is dealing with facts not opinions here. the situation i presented resembles reasonable doubt and if the prosecution doesnt have documentation or video audio evidence the case falls apart.
why the hell would the prosecution give vick a break by allowing him to plea out today and not have to face the serious charge carrying 20 years?
think about it. when has that ever happened?
how solid is their case once the credibility of the witnesses is destroyed?
especially without a paper trail or video/audio evidence.
a picture of vick posing with a dog and the other 3 proves nothing unless there is a ring in the background with dogs in the act of a fight.
im not saying how the case goes either way til i see the evidence or lack thereof.
