More Trouble For Michael Vick
Blogging the National Football League, Blogging the NFL
As if he wasn’t in enough hot water, Michael Vick learned of more trouble heading his way today. Already looking at a federal prison term for bankrolling a dogfighting operation in Virginia, he now faces two state charges that could get him more prison time if he’s convicted. A Surry County grand jury indicted Michael and three co-defendants today, but his lawyers will fight the state charges on the grounds that he can’t be convicted twice of the same crime.
If that wasn’t enough, it was announced today that Royal Bank of Canada has sued Michael for more than $2.3 million. The bank argued that his guilty plea to federal dogfighting charges and the resulting impact on his career have prevented him from repaying a $2.5 million real estate investment loan. The bank is demanding $2,313,694.37, plus $499 in interest per day, starting Sept. 19, as well as attorney’s fees.
