Sniffing Out the Truth: Cadaver Dog Cases, Episode 3

In this final episode on cadaver dogs, we have an update from our last episode. We will also cover two haunting cases where critical evidence was hidden—and ultimately uncovered. In 1998 Utah, the disappearance of June Flood and Rex Tanner led to a shocking investigation involving an eccentric ranch owner and a brutal murder followed by extreme efforts to destroy evidence, until cadaver dogs helped locate key remains and bring those responsible to justice.  The episode then moves to Ireland, where Tina Satchwell’s 2017 disappearance remained a mystery for years until investigators revisited her home in 2023. A cadaver dog alerted to her buried remains, leading to a conviction for murder in 2025.  These cases highlight the vital role cadaver dogs play in uncovering the truth—no matter how well it’s hidden.  💬 Text Ruby & Mel HERE!
