Why a local county is sending officers a local sheriff is coming under fire after two of his knt teams went to kang da for bomb training to canada for bomb training. It sounds smart. What the problem . They dont have a commercial airport. Chris papst went to Southern Maryland to get answers. He just got back from a big trip. In midmay, he and another k9 and twod miles to montreal, canada. The st. Marys Sheriff Office hailed on the website prestigious airport explosive detection training where they learned to scan airport terminals. Passenger airline and baggage. The dogs trained on the most sophisticated airline in a world and learned how to keep passengers safe. Even though the st. Marys regional County Airport has never sold a ticket. This stylish terminal was built 16 years ago for 3. 1 million state taxpayers bucks. The thought is it would support commercial flights but never has. Do you see why people may question it . Its worth every penny. The sheriff approved the trip. It took two k9 teams o the capacities are so much improved now. Larry is a former fourterm county commissioner. You are filming an empty terminal. If a terrorist is going to come in here to blow something up, hurt people, they wouldnt get much bang for the buck. Im sitting in a seat that has never been sat in by a paid passenger. Ken is a 40year county resident and a lark. Vacation. He told 7 on your side his team went to canada not for airport training but to pursue a certain type of training certificate. Its transfer to other places like Office Building and county schools. My responsibility is to hire give them the best sustained training and hold them accountable. That is why this is worth every penny. Chris papst, abc7 news. Alison that is it for us at 5 00.
