Mike Vick Sentenced to 23 Months in Prison

Mike Vick, the Atlanta Falcons quarterback, was sentenced to 23 months in prison for his recent dogfighting case that involved gambling and killing pit bulls. He could have been sentenced to serve as many as five years. He could possible get out three months earlier if he gets time off for good behavior.

Back in August, Vick pleaded guilty to his part in a dogfighting operation that killed between six to eight dogs. He admitted to funding the dogfighting operation on his 15-acre property in southeastern Virginia. He said that he provided the money for the bets on the fights but didn’t get any money from the winnings.

Mike Vick Get a Visit from the Repo Man

An Indiana bank recently sued Mike Vick for not repaying his loans that involved a car rental business. Vick is the chief financial officer of Divine Seven, a car rental company, and bought more than 130 cars through the loans. The bank says it suffered damages of about $2 million dollars because Vick and Divine Seven LLC wouldn’t pay for the vehicles. The bank has repossessed most of the cars.

Last week, Royal Bank of Canada sued Vick for $2.3 million dollars that he claimed he was going to use for real estate investments.
