The ASPCA's legal team is going after Michael Vick hard. I have confidence in them that they will make a huge example out of him-- as they should. My mom is more of a "dog" person (oh, the irony...) and she's been up in arms since this broke. She'd go after him personally if she could. In the meantime, she feels pretty confident in the ASPCA's legal team.
Here's their website http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer
