I for one am happy they got him alive.

Now we can get a lot of details about what the hell they were thinking.

Also i can see this becoming a meme really soon.

One of the first things that came to mind for me while watching the news was a distinct lack of bloodhounds looking for him.

I mean, it was known he fled on foot. Also known was where he lived. How hard is it to have a bloodhound sniff clothing from his hamper, sniff his bed and pillow, and follow a trail from where he was last known to have left the vehicle he was last in and fled on foot?

Bloodhounds have been used for hundreds of years and they're exceedingly effective. The only thing that comes to mind is that the authorities may have made some bizarre decision not to use hounds for the fear of setting off a fundy like him with a ritually "unclean" animal.

Really, I'd have thought bloodhounds would be standard operating procedure in a situation of a manhunt for a suspect on foot. Instead we got treated to Benny Hill style frantic rushing around in Humvees, squad cars, and SWAT trucks chasing ghosts around for a dude who was quite obviously just hiding out somewhere.

Additional arrests made in New Bedford according to this.

I've heard they could have just been taken into custody as witnesses. Not because they've committed acts of wrongdoing.

Bloodhounds are awesome, no doubt. They're also increasingly scarce - Not over all, but LEO-trained bloodhound/handler teams are a lot fewer than they used to be.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

He was driving in a car, not sure if bloodhounds can track cars.

Also, I adore bloodhounds.
They are rarely used nowadays since, although they have the best noses of all dogs, they are unfortunately "psychologically unstable"- they don't just look like they were sad, the breed is known to be very vulnerable to depression.
In the past, several cases were reported where a bloodhound tracked a criminal and couldn't understand why this criminal was yelling at him instead of giving him some pettings and handing out scooby snacks. After those incidents, several bloodhounds were so deeply depressed that they could no longer be used by the police.
I think this is cute and adorable. Smile

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Actually, they have - in one case, a bloodhound tracked a kidnap victim for miles down a highway. They lost the track after some confused secondary road maneuvers. When the victim was found (dead) she was less than a quarter mile from where the track was lost - more than 20 miles from the abduction point.

BUT - That was an exceptional case.

Presuming that law enforcement had good scent-holding material belonging to Suspect #2, teams might have been useful in ground searching around buildings - but you're going to need quite a few teams for the kind of search as conducted yesterday. When yo need to cover a LOT of ground thoroughly, one or two teams ain't gunna do it.

They had that SUV on a flatbed truck carrying it away yesterday morning. I'm sure he didn't park his vehicle inside the boat, he left a vehicle, the location where that was done was known, and he fled on foot. A Captain Obvious place to begin tracking.

Even if the location he fled on foot weren't known, bloodhounds can catch the scent during a sweep of an area, then follow it.

Scent discrimination becomes an issue. Which scent in the vehicle is the dog going to track? We know for absolutely certain there were three different scents in that vehicle.

I referred to earlier clothing from his hamper, his bed, his pillow from his bedroom. Pillow would probably be pretty ideal as they accumulate scent for days/weeks between washings.

I hadn't heard that they'd even determined where he was living as yet... Might make getting the bed linens (or dirty socks) a bit problematic.

It was known - he lived in a dorm room on Dartmouth campus, the one they evacuated yesterday.
