McGruff The Crime Dog Gets 16 Years For Pot And Guns

By RT

“McGruff the Crime Dog may have always told kids to ‘take a bite out of crime,’ but apparently the actor who played him took a big bite into crime: John Morales has been sentenced to 16 year in prison for amassing large stashes of drugs and weapons.
“The actor who portrayed the anti-crime bloodhound was pulled over for speeding by Galveston, Texas police in 2011, when drug-sniffing dogs (not named McGruff) noticed something off.
“Police then raided Morales’ home and discovered 1,000 marijuana plants, 27 weapons – including a grenade launcher – and 9,000 rounds of ammunition. RT’s Meghan Lopez looks at what a bad dog Morales really was.”
