Tack Lambertz
I fallet med styckmordet i Boden så tvistas det om ifall en "likhund" verkligen klarar av att urskilja liklukt från en död människa, i en baklucka med blodfynd, även
några veckor efter mordet.
Men Lambertz har nu, inför hela svenska folket, uttalat sin tilltro till att hunden Sampo skulle ha
markerat spår 15 år efter Johans försvinnande.

"Researchers from the University of Alabama, hoping to zero in on how long the scent of death might linger at a crime scene, designed a test for the state police’s cadaver dogs. A single human vertebra, more than 30 years old, was buried 12 inches deep. The dogs were let loose across a 300-by-150-foot plot, and several succeeded in sniffing out the dry bone fragment. So it’s certainly possible that the canines recruited for Etan Patz’s search could detect parts of a 33-year-old body hidden in the basement on Prince Street. A variety of factors, however, mediate the strength of the death odor and how quickly it dissipates. Temperature, humidity, the softness or hardness of the ground, and the amount of degrading matter all play a role, as does the physiology of the dog. (A heavily panting pooch can’t scent very well.)"
