A Conversation with Peter Van Sant on "“Trained to Kill: The Dog Trainer, the Heiress and the Bodyguard," 48 Hours, and a Career Covering Murder

42 minutes

The story of the disappearance of T. Mark Stover is filled with twists and turns. Stover was known as the dog whisperer of the Pacific Northwest, and boasted clients like famous rockers and Hollywood stars. Then, in 2009, he vanished.
