Update from California:
The canines involved in Whipple's death are part of a fighting-dog
ring in which dogs were bred for such jobs as protecting illicit drug
labs. The ring was run by two white supremacist inmates at Pelican
Bay State Prison, and in a bizarre twist, Noel and Knoller [owners of
the dogs] have adopted one of the inmates, 38-year-old Paul John
Schneider...
Noel told the Chronicle he has three adult children of his own who
haven't spoken to him in years.
The lawyer couple has represented prison guards, cops and homeless
people; they've represented relatives in probate court and car crash
victims in vehicular negligence cases. They also have sued their
landlord and two San Francisco police chiefs....
Noel submitted an 18-page letter to [San Fran DA] Hallinan blaming
Whipple for the attack.
The dog's owner said his wife repeatedly tried to keep Whipple away
from the dog, but Whipple continued to move toward them. He said Bane
only lunged for her neck and throat after Whipple hit Knoller in the
face.
Noel went on to say the attack may have been brought on by pheromone-
based cosmetics, or that the lacrosse coach "may have been a user of
steroids" that could have attracted the dogs.
Yah.
