A recent release by FBI
dated august 26th, 2013 has unveiled a news of 10 individuals being
arrested on grounds of dog fighting and even gambling conspiracy. 367 Pit Bull
Terriers were caught as they were engaged in numerous fights.
Those who have been found
guilty have been indicted for various federal charges as they promoted and
sponsored the dog fights and along with it they are also involved in a racket
of buying, selling and transporting dogs as well. Apart from this; they are
also known to be conducting a gambling business that is illegal.
It was on Friday that the
officials executed 13 different search warrants and of the 13 searches, 11 were
found in the state of Alabama itself while the remaining 2 were in Georgia.
When the dogs were found, the officers also found a lot of illegal guns and
drugs that were used for training and even treating dogs to prepare them for
the fight. A grand total of 500,000 USD was also extracted from the
organization. The names of those who were arrested have been released.
This incident is one in the
series of what could possibly be many such rackets. The federal officers have a
tough time ahead but this arrest itself has turned out to be big news because
the organization seemed to have already made massive inroads as there was
significant amount of betting involved even in the field of dog fights. For
