thanks for the link, obviously some really shoddy reporting, not that it really makes a difference. They knew the dog was in the bathroom. Anyone with a brain knows that dogs react to strangers in there house, they also can feel the tension. I am sure the dog was all wound up. Dumb, just dumb!
I agree with you if that is what really happened. On the other hand the whole search sounds bogus, and they should have never been in the home to begin with.
I personally think drugs should be legalized, and we should use our police force to pursue real criminals (those who hurt other people). What someone does in their home should be their own business.
