I saw Michael Vick pleaded innocent today regardless of the overwhelming evidence and cooperation witnesses.
My Question is this: Are you under oath when you give your plea?
what I'm getting at is, if you plead innocent and then found guilty
are you charged with perjury for calling yourself innocent?
Obviously you have the right to plead as you wish but when you lie
to a judge in court and are caught your charged for it,
There must be some lawyers out there (with the price of vettes and all)
I'm betting that NO you do not, but it does seem like it's giving false info
in a court of law.
Anyway I hope they feed him to his own dogs if convicted!
thanks in advance....... Jack
