An FBI dog team was called to Cherokee County, Alabama, on Saturday to help search for more evidence after a man was arrested a week ago on murder charges, according to Cherokee County Sheriff Jeff Shaver.
Meanwhile, inmate Terry Lee McKinney, 63, of Cedar Bluff, has been transferred to the Etowah County Detention Facility. McKinney uses a wheelchair, and the other facility is better equipped to accommodate his special needs, Shaver reported.
