Vick. 23 months.

Posted in Issues/Opinions, Law, News on December 10th, 2007 by PM

PM is not going to opine on this one. Vick waives rights to an appeal in his attempt at a plea. Judge nails him for 23 months for complete funding, selecting dogs for execution, possibly partaking in executions. Experts say he could serve 18 months with good behavior. That would mean his release is May 2009. Justice be served.

This quilt was recently auctioned on ebay. The image on the quilt looks a bit like Duke the pitbull currently on death row.

The accused animals in these stories both have pretty good cases. Is it enough to save them? Is this a case of a bad animal, a neglectful owner, or an act of self defense? Are the rights of animals different than the owners/victims?

Here is the latest story.

Congo is a 2 1/2-year old German shepherd from Princeton Township, N.J., who was sentenced to death for mauling gardener Giovanni Rivera, 42, on June 5. The dog’s owners maintain that he was simply defending his family from a perceived threat. Read the rest of this entry »
