Will Breed Bloodhounds in Mississippi for Convict Recapture
Mississippi authorities plan to strengthen state tracking by purchasing a top bloodhound named Robin Hood from Kentucky. The dog will track escaped convicts from Rankin county state farms under Sgt. Pansy, while also improving local hound quality. Robin Hood has a proven southern record, with successful 24 and 12 hour trails in Mississippi. The dogs are expected to deter escapes among convict labor and aid recapture efforts at multiple state farms.
