It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It IS interesting than many SA and Carribean countries did execute treaties with the US in the 90s though, making mostly less attractive havens the only ones left for rich financiers and other fugitives from the law.
As far as I know there is no extradition treaty with Greece, so if he goes there he can hide out as Michaelangelo Vickopoulos.
Read the indictment and THEN tell us what you think. After you've lost your lunch, that is. The more I think about it, there is no way Vick plays this year. Every stadium he enters will be full of people hoisting signs and going crazy, it will be a sideshow of the like we've not seen before. The league won't allow that sort of horrible PR to unfold.
* Indictments are just accusations. They aren't proof. Rarely does a prosecutor not get an indictment no matter what the evidence. Not only have many here convicted him already, they already have him skipping the country - Let the legal system play out. I think the indictment is gruesome too, but it's not proof of anything. Even some eho get found guilty get out of jail 10-15 years later because DNA shows it wasn't them.

If you've read the indictment, you'll find that there are 4 cooperating witnesses who corroborate what the Feds have uncovered. True, it is only an accusation but the physical evidence ( dog carcasses, blood on the walls, rape stand) along with the witnesses makes for compelling evidence that would lead a reasonable person to think that there is a solid case to date.
* Solid case, but he's not convicted
As for the DNA , I don't think it will work in this case........
Speaking from personal experience?
I agree totally with Vick needing to sit...it is THAT simple..if it had been a charge of a one time involvement or possibly being at a dog fight..one COULD understand the NFL's wait and see...BUT..given that this DID take place at Vick's house and that there were dogs, voth dead and alive found ON the property AND that Vick lied to the Commish, I think the NFL is making a BIG mistake in not suspending him.Kind of a OJ quote
" if the condcut policy is legit, then Vick must sit"
I just think Mike Vick is a thug, and a hood.. No place in society for his dog abuse.. I would lose alot of respect for the NFL, if Vick is allowed to play football this yr...
