    What is a Cold Case and How are They Solved?

    When people hear the term “cold case,” most think about an old, unsolved murder. While this definition is not incorrect, the idea that the term “cold case” only pertains to a murder is inaccurate. Seasoned investigator Jason Moran will discuss how to define and categorize cold cases, as well as provide key considerations and strategies for investigators handling cold cases to increase solvability.

    This webinar is intended for police departments seeking to increase their understanding of cold case investigations and improve cold case investigative outcomes.

    To the Cloud! Get the Evidence You Need to Move Cases Forward

    Some of the most important sources of evidence in a criminal investigation are also the hardest to get. An encrypted, password-protected mobile device can be useless if you have no way to get the password. Social media providers are infamous for their red tape, delaying your returns for weeks or even months. And, if you’re in a country other than where the provider is located, mutual legal assistance treaties can take years to process. Fortunately, there is a solution: obtain the evidence directly from cloud-based user accounts.

    Learning from Error in Criminal Justice: A Sentinel Events Approach

    In criminal justice, a “sentinel event” is a bad outcome that might include a death in custody, routine police encounter that escalates to violence, mishandling of evidence, wrongful conviction, or “near miss,” in which a negative event is narrowly avoided. Too often, the criminal justice system fails to learn from these bad outcomes. Drawing inspiration from aviation, medicine, and other high-risk fields, the Sentinel Events Initiative (SEI) takes an alternative approach.
