Sheriffs to offer dog fighting rewards

The Georgia Sheriff's Association will offer rewards for people who supply information about dogfighting. The GSA plans to hand out up to $2,500 for information leading to a conviction on dogfighting charges. One major figure behind the idea is Gwinnett County Sheriff Butch Conway, who offered $10,000 of his money in July for information about dogfighting. He said he acted in response to news reports about the Michael Vick case. The Atlanta Falcons quarterback has pleaded guilty to dog fighting charges and has been suspended indefinitely from the NFL.
