WILL COUNTY, Ill. -- (WGN) -- Prosecutors nationwide are turning to an old remedy to tackle new, digital-age crimes. And the crimes are serious, like child pornography.

Clever criminals are hiding small, usually discreet, electronic recording devices in the most unsuspecting places.
That is where canines like Cache come in.
