Cold Cases

Practical and concise, this book is an invaluable tool for police officers and detectives attempting to solve crimes that would otherwise be forgotten. It considers what should be looked at beyond the case file itself and how the growth in technology since the date of the incident might provide new opportunities to uncover clues. It also explores interview/interrogation techniques and suggests how investigators can maximize their efforts to obtain a conviction. Useful appendices include sample standard operating procedures to use as a guide for setting up a cold case unit and a list of additional resources.
