Michael Bailey and his cousin Ronnie, were caught with 33 bite-scarred, malnourished pit bulls and pit bull mixes in south Bakersfield in May 2000. They were charged with possession of fighting dogs, cruelty and neglect, but plea-bargained their way to 100 hours each of community service, much to the dismay of the SPCA.
