Episode 606 - The Hard Drive Sniffin’ Black Labs
Dogs are being trained to detect chemicals used on the memories and hard drives of all digital devices. These dogs can sniff out thumb drives, smartphones, external drives, and other devices used to store illicit content, including child pornography and financial crime data. We go to the inner sanctum of the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department’s Fraud & Cybercrimes Bureau located at a secret location in south Los Angeles County – a first for a journalist. Sergeant Pete Hish handles ‘K-9 Satoshi’ and Sergeant Sergio Reyes handles ‘K-9 Zypher’. They tell us how their specially trained Electronics Detection K-9’s are being used to help solve cases and catch the bad guys. It’s part of our ongoing ‘Crime-Fighter Series’.
