You do not go to a white collar prison for an felony like this. And he did not go to some cushy state pen. he went to Leavenworth.
And I beleive he did in fact go to general pop (least that is what I have read). In addition to the prison. He paid an easy million to care for the pups that he hurt, he was then sued for 2.3 million by the Royal Bank of Canada because as he lost his job, and had to give a mill for the pups he had to sell his home (etc), The courts then said that instead of 2.3 mil, he had to give them 2.5 mil. And then 1st source bank sued him for two mil because he had to go back on renting cars from them because he was in jail. They were awarded 400k.
Vick then defaulted on a loan from Wachovia because he was in prison and was sued for around 1.1 mil, then there is having to pay back a sign-on bounus, and a ton of other stuff.
He went to prison worth about 50 mil. Because of other creditors and what not he will come out with,,,, nothing. Yeah he got off easy.
Do I feel sorry for him? Not one tiny little bit. But please do not even attempt to say he got off easy. I would challange you to show me one common person that has lost so much for this crime.
