Doogy Style??!!!

What in the world has this Judge been thinking? Too desperate for a witness or something? I wonder why on earth does he have to do this man. He has asked Scooby to be a witness in a murder trial! And if you are thinking Scooby Doo, you are somewhat correct! Scooby is a DOG, which is going to appear as a witness in murder trial! Madness i am telling you! so what are they going to be doing? count the number of barks or something? hahah..
This is the kind of news you should be reading today! Desprate people doing desprate moves! ahah..

A dog nicknamed Scooby has become the first animal in the world to appear as a witness in a murder trial.

The animal is believed to have been with his 59-year-old owner when she was found hanging from the ceiling of her Paris flat.

Police believe it was suicide but her family demanded a murder investigation, reports the Daily Telegraph.

During a preliminary hearing the pet was led into the witness box by a vet to see how it reacted to a suspect. It is said to have "barked furiously".

The aim was to decide if there was sufficient evidence to launch a full murder inquiry and a judge is yet to reach a decision.

French judge Thomas Cassuto praising the animal for his "exemplary behaviour and invaluable assistance".

A spokesman for the Palais de Justice in Paris confirmed that the Nanterre case was the first time a dog had appeared as a witness in criminal proceedings in France.

He said he was "almost certain" it was also a world first. The dog was nicknamed after crime-fighting cartoon character Scooby Doo. - Avanova
