"Thanks for posting this. First time I'd seen this.
"I always hoped he's out there somewhere and just not connecting." Ewww. What an eerie thing to say.
Also, ..."the dog brings in animals from the woods and we usually throw them in the barrel of ash and that type of thing, so there are a lot of bones in there, there's pieces of clothing that have been tossed aside burned and that kind of thing, so I'm sure they found a wide assortment of things in that ash pile."
Chilling, because this is exactly what Jimmy Ryce's killer did...intentionally kill some dogs and place them around the cement planters he buried Jimmy in. It worked because if I recall correctly dogs did not pick up on the human scent and this I believe was 1995. Also, watch his demeaner when he talks about the animals the dog brings home and the part about blood on the chest, he smiles and shakes his head as he recounts -- it's obvious he's very uncomfortable and trying to not reflect that.
