Former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick will be back in court today to answer to more dogfighting charges. Vick will be in a Surry County, Virginia Circuit courtroom, expected to plead guilty to state dogfighting charges. The plea is seen as necessary to make Vick eligible for early release from federal prison to a halfway house.
Vick is currently serving a 23-month sentence for a federal dogfighting conviction. His scheduled release is July 2009. The plea agreement on state charges would call for Vick to receive a suspended sentence and one year probation.
