How Amateur Sleuths Are Solving America's Coldest Cases
Feb 13, 2016
A well-written account of how internet-savvy true crime fans can now become armchair detectives and actually solve cold cases. At first reluctant to admit the public into their inner sanctum, police investigators are now becoming more willing to tap into their collective intelligence to help solve crimes. Across the country, police have begun to post databases of info on missing persons and unsolved cases. The book also tries to raise awareness of the problem of the number of unsolved murders involving unidentified victims.. a much larger problem than many realize, with the remains of Jane and John Does in the thousands in America's morgues and crime labs. They are waiting on someone.. perhaps even you or me.. to help identify them!
