I remember when this happened and read a bit about it in one of Cesar's books. I was glad to read more in-depth about this horrible case. Noel and Knoller seemed almost childish I thought, and are very irresponsible people. Found it a bit ironic that they were attoreneys. It was very chilling to read about the past encounters people had with these dogs, and Noel & Knoller didn't respond in the proper way. Unfortunatley I feel that not a whole lot has changed concerning violent dogs and the law, even though I agree that they are victims of society. I'm a bit surprised these specific dogs haven't been banned in the US. And I feel that prisoners have way too much free reign if they can buy dogs outside of prison walls!

"It was the story that shocked the nation and captured headlines for more than a year. In January 2001, Diane Alexis Whipple bled to death in the hallway of her ritzy Pacific Heights apartment building when she was mauled by two Presa Canarios, a vicious breed of attack dog imported from the Canary Islands. After the lethal attack, animal experts testified that the dogs could not have been stopped, explaining that they had entered a frenzy called the "Red Zone."" "Now, New York Times bestselling author Aphrodite Jones shows that the mauling was only one part of a frightening story involving obsession, bestiality, and illegal dog rings. The dogs belonged to Whipple's neighbors, lawyers Marjorie Knoller and Robert Noel, who had been keeping them for a leader of the notorious prison gang the Aryan Brotherhood." "Jones takes us deep into the bizarre world of Paul "Cornfed" Schneider, a Hannibal Lechter-type character who actually owned the dogs, Bane and Hera. She explains how Noel and Knoller, after being warned about these killer dogs, brought them to the heart of San Francisco, leading the dogs eventually to murder an innocent next-door neighbor. Jones also reveals the shocking L.A.-area whereabouts of the offspring of Bane, the dog most directly involved in the mauling." "Jones has interviewed the complete cast of characters - including Robert Noel and Marjorie Knoller during their imprisonment - and can now tell the full story of what happened in that apartment hallway."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
