The Cold Case Unit is responsible for reviewing and re-examining unresolved criminal cases that have exhausted all viable leads. The unit focuses on serious offenses, often involving crimes against persons, where advances in technology, forensic science, or new information may provide opportunities for resolution.
Investigators systematically re-evaluate case files, evidence, and prior investigative steps, applying modern investigative techniques, forensic advancements, and intelligence analysis. The unit also works closely with partner agencies, laboratories, and prosecutors when new leads or evidence emerge.
Through persistence, analytical review, and renewed investigative focus, the Cold Case Unit seeks to bring resolution to long-unsolved cases, provide answers to victims and families, and hold offenders accountable, regardless of the passage of time.
