Mini-hearing about cadaver dogs underway

I've been looking forward to hearing testimony of the cadaver dog searches. I've covered this case since the beginning and I don't recall learning a lot about cadaver dog searches. So I was looking forward to hearing testimony about it. So far this morning, we haven't heard much specifically about the Emily Anderson case. Roy McNeil, a cadaver dog trainer, talked about his training and experience with cadaver dogs. He said two of his doberman, Kiser and Kolby, worked the Anderson case. Kiser has since passed. (So sad. I hate to hear of animals passing away, hence, why I'm a vegetarian.) McNeil hasn't gone too far into the Anderson case. He's basically talking of other cases Kiser and Kolby have worked on. Kiser, before his death, found two bodies in Lake Norman in the last year. In Bear Lake, in Jackson County, Kiser found at least five bodies in the last three years. Sounds like an incredible doggie... I hope we hear more about Kiser and Kolby's search, only concerning the Anderson case.

Jurors return at 2. Maybe Judge Cayer will make a decision about what evidence the jurors will eventually hear concerning cadaver dogs. However, McNeil is the only witness so far to take the stand, and it appears at two, maybe three others in the courtroom are here to testify about search dogs. I'll be back at lunch.
