FELONY COCKFIGHTING REDUCED to MISDEMEANOR SOLICITATION with ZERO DAYS in Jail – State v. Mr. P (DMC No. 5624) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2005-008753): Maricopa County Sheriffs Officers received a call of a residence holding cockfights in Phoenix, Arizona. When they arrived, they pulled over a vehicle that was leaving and noticed that the people inside had blood on their clothes and several injured roosters in the back of their vehicle. Those people pointed to the house and informed them that Mr. P was running a cockfighting ring. When Mr. P was contacted, he allowed the Officers to search the house. They found over 90 roosters, with some of them being injured. Mr. P did admit that he was holding cockfights at his house. He was charged with Felony Cockfighting per Arizona Revised Statute ARS 13-2910.03. Because of his cooperation, we convinced the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office to reduce his charge to a Misdemeanor “Solicitation” with probation and zero days in Jail.
