The dog definitely did it's job, which gave the agent the information required for the search. So I think that in the spectrum of procedural defences, that one is going to be tough.

February 21, 20205 yr comment_463720 Ottawa has been sneakily quiet and their receivers are gross. Wonder if they sneak in with a big offer for Walker?? Edited February 21, 20205 yr by Bubba Zanetti

February 21, 20205 yr comment_463730 I want to voice my displeasure in missing out on Rhymes, so I want to convey my disappointment with a short poem. What rhymes with Rhymes?

I don't get the procedural error. Why have the dog at all? The dog sniffing for drugs is IN OF ITSELF considered a search so the police can't use the dog alerting as probable cause for making a search. I.E. police can't walk up and down streets with a drug sniffing dog and when the dog alerts at a house, use that alert as probable cause for obtaining a warrant to search the house for drugs. It's a little less clear with dogs alerting during routine traffic stops - IF a driver has committed some other driving offense AND the dog alerts while the officer is dealing with that offense then the search for drugs is OK. Checkpoints further complicate the question, from what I understand at checkpoints police need to have pre-determined that they will pull over every nth car (every 2nd car, 5th car, 10th car, etc) to check for whatever the checkpoint is there to check for. They can't actually change their rules for the checkpoint mid-stream. So the border agent whose dog alerted him OUTSIDE of the checkpoint might not actually have the right to tell the checkpoint to do a further search because his dog alerting outside of the checkpoint is actually an illegal search by the dog.

That's the sort of technicality a good lawyer is going to exploit in favour of his client and I'm sure Mr. Robinson will be able to afford a good lawyer.

Actually, there have been several cases in the US where it was proven in court that the dog handler had trained the dog to respond to a covert signal from the handler and react as if the dog had actually detected drugs. With that amount of ganja, it wouldn't take much for even a comatose dog to detect it.

February 21, 20205 yr comment_463777 *If* that salary is correct on Rhymes then I'm surprised that no other team would of offered more for a big play receiver who is tall and has some speed.

We are making some pretty big assumptions here. Until some actual informatiomation comes out staring otherwise, safe to assume the dog was being used in an authorized/legal way. I havent seen any actual report stating the dog was used outside of what it is legally intended for as of yet. Cops are pretty aware of what the procedure is to follow, particularly special units.
