Dog Brought Into French Court To Identify Owner's Murderer

A 9 year old Labrador was called into a French court as a witness to identify it's owner's murderer...Yes...a dog.

The dog was brought in because they were recreating the crime scene where the murderer allegedly threatened the dog before killing it's owner.

Another dog of the same breed and age was brought in to keep the results unbiased. The court wanted to test the reaction of both dogs.

Guess what the outcome was...From Inquisitr:

However, local newspaper The Local, reported the experiment as a complete failure both the dogs reacted very identically to the criminal threatening each of them with a bat.
The suspect’s lawyer though mocked the methods saying, “So if Tango lifted his right paw, moved his mouth or his tail, is he recognizing my client or not? I find it very troubling for the French legal system. If a judge ignores the demands of reason and surrounds himself with experts who are unreasonable, well the system becomes very dangerous.”
