Four Sentenced to Prison in Dogfighting Case

Four Missouri men have been sentenced to terms in prison for federal charges, including dogfighting. The convictions were a result of the largest coordinated multistate raid on dogfighting in United States history. Fifty-year-old Teddy Kiriakidis and thirty-four-year-old Ronald Creach were sentenced on Tuesday to eighteen months in federal prison. Thirty-eight-year-old Michael Morgan and fifty-six-year-old Robert Hackman were sentenced to a year.

All four men pleaded guilty to conspiracy, and Hackman and Morgan pleaded guilty to selling animals for fighting. Federal agents arrested twenty-six people in July, and seized over five hundred dogs across seven states.
