McGruff the Crime Dog Sent to Prison
He's gonna go from taking a bite out of crime to tossing salad....
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mcgruff...1nMwzDvU5C4nhY GALVESTON, Texas - John Morales, the actor who played the crime-fighting cartoon character McGruff the Crime Dog, was sentenced to 16 years in prison stemming from a 2011 arrest in which police seized 1,000 marijuana plants, 27 weapons – including a grenade launcher – and 9,000 rounds of ammunition from his home, reports CBS Houston. The sentence was handed down Thursday, just three days after the 41-year-old former actor pleaded guilty. Morales insisted during the sentencing hearing that he was nonviolent, but U.S. District Judge Vanessa Gilmore said, “Everything I read about you makes you seem like a scary person,” reports the station. McGruff the Crime Dog is a cartoon bloodhound that was created by global advertising company Saatchi & Saatchi and the Ad Council in the early 1980s for the National Crime Prevention Council. The cartoon figure was used by U.S. police in spreading crime awareness, and is perhaps best known for the tagline "take a bite out of crime." |

So did McGruff the Crime Dog sniff out the drugs in John Morales' home and call the police?

I actually played McGruff once while in college for an event in an elementary school. To keep cool, they had a little fan in the head apparatus that you had to reach into the nose to turn in. So I got super hot and reached in, and all the kids yelled "McGruff is picking his nose EWWWW" but I guess that's the least of his concerns today.

McGruff had his debut in 1980 and the character lived on through the mid-90's. Whomever wrote this article did zero research, as this man was 41 years old in 2014, which means he was 7 years old in 1980, making it impossible for him to have been the person that voiced McGruff on all of those national commercials. |

What Dane said. None of this makes any sense, plus it's an article from 2014.
