Handler of world-famous dog is charged with planting evidence
OSCODA -- After midnight on an unusually muggy April night, a small-town cop opened his eyes in the dark and blinked up at the ceiling from his bed.
Mark David couldn't shut off his brain. If what he suspected were true, it would wreck a 20-year murder investigation -- and cast doubt on countless other murder cases around the country.
It would also mean that Sandra Anderson, the world's most famous handler of the world's most famous cadaver-sniffing dog, had betrayed the trust of law enforcement agencies and many others from northern Michigan to Central America.
Investigators would be heartbroken. Convictions would be overturned. Families of the dead would be devastated all over again. And Anderson would face federal charges for what David thought was a macabre secret he was about to expose.
The FBI probably wouldn't even believe him -- a community police officer who taught driver's education on the weekends in Oscoda, a little vacation town on the shores of Lake Huron.
Maybe they'd be right. Maybe he didn't see what he thought he saw. As he lay in bed, he played the events of that morning over in his head, dissecting every moment.

Oscoda Police Detective Sgt. Allan MacGregor had been investigating the disappearance of Cherita Thomas for two decades when Sandra Anderson and her cadaver-sniffing partner, Eagle, were called in to help search for remains in the Huron National Forest.

Sooo True!!! That's what happened in "Lady and the Tramp. The old hound lost his nose and could no longer hunt. But when he was needed to get Tramp back from the nasty dog pound, he got his nose back and saved the day. Of course he was hurt when the horse drawn dog pound carriage was overturned on him. But he survives to this day...
I don't know quite how to break this to you, but "Lady and the Tramp" was fiction ... made up .... not real.

Can't be... It's from Walt Disney.
However, if what you say is true, my grand-kids will be greatly disappointed.
