You think that they should be able to leave if they want to?
Just like any other job, people know what is normal and what isn't. These officers can pick up on peoples behavoir when it is not normal. The officer questions hundreds of people and hour....they all act pretty much the same and then comes buddy who is nervous. They are going to pick up on that.
The biggest thing in this case is before they did any king of removing or drilling the dog indicated that there was drugs present....that alone is enough to have reasonable grounds to believe there are drugs present.

This is one thing I don't get and hate about the borders, what happens if that dog was wrong and they just finished drilling this guys truck and ripping it apart?
Nothing, he is left with his truck in a disaster and left to fix it on his own.
