Eldridge first heard about the Henslee search through the national news. A neighbor of the Henslee family learned of the group on Facebook and got the Henslee family in contact with them.
When group members arrived in Hartford on Jan. 27, Jones said the family pointed them in the direction of Beebes trailer.
After police gave the go-ahead, they took the dogs to the trailer. Daisy headed right to the trailer. Eldridge said she saw blood in the snow near the trailer and on the door.
Samples of that blood have been turned over to the Michigan State Police crime lab for testing, Gribler said.
Eldridge said human blood is the only thing the dogs are trained to react to.
After calling authorities, Eldridge brought out an HRD dog, who ran to a pile of brush.
Not knowing, (the dog) pinpointed the gravesite, she said.
Detectives arrived on scene around 2:30 p.m., Jones said.
We knew they were there and were going to find what they were going to find, Jones said. We were done.
