This floppy-eared bloodhound pup is going to work for the cops

South Floridians may recall the Ryce family and their son’s heinous murder, which gripped the region and the country. Twenty four years ago, Jimmy Ryce, a fifth-grader who loved baseball and reading, disappeared after a school bus dropped him off near his home in south Miami-Dade. A three-month search for the boy ensued. A tip to police led to the Dec. 9, 1995 arrest of 28-year-old ranch hand Juan Carlos Chavez, who told police that he became aroused by a group of young boys playing near a canal.
