Actually, the media is underestimating bloodhounds. There are cases...proven cases...where bloodhounds can follow a scent for miles when people are in a car. There was one case that bloodhounds tracked an abducted girl for miles when she was in a truck. The experts think that the bloodhounds are tracking the skin flakes that fly off of each of us. In the girls case...they linked the scent trail to skin flakes coming out of the air conditioner. So...it is likely that the hounds were following that kind of trail. After all...it would take a great biker about 20 minutes or so to get that far...and by that time...the area was shut down. Unlikely he/they would do that...more likely that he/they were being tracked by the skin flakes. In other cases....he might have taken the shot from the woods and then got into the van.

One thing is certain...he is getting more bold than ever. It's likely he will be caught within the next couple of shots. He is getting too bold and people are looking for white astro vans. I can't believe he is still using it.

I have the utmost respect for the ability of bloodhounds to track a scent. What I don't understand in this case is how they link this "scent" to the sniper.

Can anyone set me straight here?

I'm very interested in the Bloodhound information. Heard on Fox that the hounds picked up on a scent 'near' the victim and took off.

Unless this guy got really close to this woman [or a bloodhound can pick up a scent that came off a speeding bullit ; ) ] do you think it might be possible that this guy physically cased this lot over the weekend?

They said the scent went from the area the woman was lying to the darker lot area across the street, then down the ramp toward the beltway. This guy could have picked his spot over the weekend - went from the area he picked to shoot from across the street to the lot to check out the line of site and what others could see from there at night. Then he could have walked back across the road from the lot directly through his potential line of sight and left.
