Vick Will Finish Sentence At Home
Posted by Media Outrage on February 26th, 2009
On May 21 Mike Vick will be transported to his Hampton Virgina home because there is no room at a Newport News halfway house.
Via AP:
Imprisoned NFL star Michael Vick will be allowed to finish his sentence under home confinement because there is no room at a halfway house for him, a government official told The Associated Press Thursday.
Vick is serving a 23-month sentence at the federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kan., after pleading guilty to bankrolling a dogfighting operation at a home he owned in eastern Virginia’s Surry County. He also admitted to participating in the killing of several underperforming dogs.
Vick’s lawyers have said they expected him to be moved any day into a halfway house in Newport News. But because of a lack of space, Vick will be released instead to his Hampton home at some point on or after May 21, said the official, who has knowledge of the case but requested anonymity because the individual was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
Vick will be on electronic monitoring and will only be allowed to leave home for activities approved by his probation officer, the official said. He is eligible for release in July.

Whoo hoo!! ‘Bout fucking time! Got fools ’round here stealing millions and billions of dollars during a recession and they asses ain’t locked up. But they throw him in the pen for ‘bankrolling’ dog fights. That’s some bullshit!! He’ll be alright though and he’s definitely still got a chance in the NFL.
