Ok, Kirk, so you're saying that Chompy hits, but I find nothing, that's a strike on the dog.
Correct.
Now, you come over to my house
Not talking about houses, motor vehicles but my proposal can be expanded to houses especially as the police are using dogs to sniff down apartment buildings and the like.
If a dog says there is something there and an officer doesn't find it, is it the dog's fault? No.
The issue is not fault, but reliability. The courts are allowing Chompy to testify because of the reliability of the dog.
Let's put that to the test! *Spartan king accent*
That's why everyone is saying the only results can come from true controlled tests.
Great! Disqualify all dogs immediately as you just admitted we can't get reliable field results.
Traffic stops do not transpire in true controlled tests yet Chompy's testimony is permitted. Let's keep track of the dogs field results and see how accurate the dogs really now. Now, they are perfect, it is my contention that they are not. The OP proves my point but I want some numbers.
