A day after a federal indictment of Michael Vick, Surry County, Va., Sheriff Harold Brown and Commonwealth Attorney Gerald Poindexter said they are continuing their investigation and could present evidence at a Surry County Grand Jury on July 24.
"We are not surprised that Vick and his three associates were indicted," Brown and Poindexter said in a joint statement.
"All four of the defendants named in the indictment are names of persons familiar to us as a result of our investigation, the results of which have been shared from the beginning with Federal authorities.
"It should be noted that the Federal interests and the State's interests are different, even though resting upon similar and sometimes the very same facts.
