Other Options
Not every law enforcement agency can afford a permanent cold
case squad. One alternative is to consult a cold case organization
like the Vidocq Society, an international nonprofit organization
of forensic experts, criminalists, pathologists, investigators,
and attorneys who meet regularly to solve unsolved homicides. The
group works with the police, prosecutors, and the victim’s
family, providing assistance on a pro bono basis. In addition,
the FBI and various federal, state, or district attorneys’ offices
may be able to provide investigative resources for cold cases.
Funding may also be obtained from federal sources or foundations.
