Officer Prailey was contacted by the Rappahannock News for his version of what happened with his K-9. He said that the dog jumped into the back of the truck on his own; he was not directed by him to do so. First Sgt. Grover L. Dean, who was conducting the checkpoint, further backed up Trooper Prailey by saying that when the dog jumped into the back of the truck, “the dog was brought out immediately.”
Sgt. Dean explained that the checkpoints are set up to screen not only drunk drivers, but they are also looking for drugs, illegal weapons, fugitives, untaxed cigarettes and untaxed alcohol. This is called “Operation Alert,” a way to interrupt criminal activity in the State of Virginia, said Sgt. Dean. The state police promoted this for the last four to five years, said Sgt. Dean.
Sgt. Dean said that Mr. Sisk’s stop was nothing out of the ordinary and that they were not looking for anything specifically.
