Podcasts about cold case investigations

After 45 years, Cold Case Investigations have made a breakthrough in the murder of 22-year-old Kerryn Tate. In this podcast, Cold Case Western Australia host Neil Poh will take listeners behind the scenes of the extraordinary investigation that led detectives to identify Terence John Fisher as a significant suspect in Kerryn's brutal murder. Cold Case Western Australia followers will recall Kerryn's murder was examined by Poh in an earlier episode for the series. In that first episode, he spoke to Kerryn's siblings about the ongoing impact of the crime. In this new and exclusive podcast, Poh again speaks to Kerryn's siblings – but this time they speak of their reaction to having some answers about their sister's death. Kerryn Tate's badly burnt body was discovered at Karragullen on 30 December 1979. She'd been bludgeoned to death and then set on fire.   Kerryn had come to Western Australia from New South Wales following the death of one of her baby twins, but her search for a new life was ended in the most brutal of circumstances.Want to help us solve cases just like these?

In the realm of criminal investigations, cold cases have always presented unique challenges and frustrations for law enforcement and affected families. Yet, the advent of advanced forensic technologies, especially DNA analysis and genealogy, has revolutionized our ability to solve cases that were once thought to be lost to time. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley speaks with Lindsey Wade, a Senior Law Enforcement Specialist at RTI International, about the intricacies of cold case investigations, highlighting the critical role of emerging technologies and the unwavering dedication of investigators in bringing long-awaited justice. With 21 years of experience as a Tacoma, Washington police officer and detective, Lindsey Wade has investigated a wide array of crimes, including sexual assaults, child abuse, missing persons and homicides. Notably, she played a pivotal role in creating the Tacoma Police Department's Child Abduction Response Team (CART), the first CART in Washington state to be certified by the Department of Justice. Since retiring from active duty, Wade has continued her mission to solve cold cases, utilizing DNA evidence to uncover the truth behind unsolved crimes. She recently published a true crime memoir titled, “In My DNA: My Career Investigating Your Worst Nightmares,” and is the author of "DNA's delayed justice: The fight to fill the gaps in CODIS," published on Police1.

On Sunday,  December 23, 1973,  John Swalley, his 5 year son and 8 year old daughter, Sherri, left Columbus, Ohio and began their journey to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. The park had just opened in 1971 and John thought this trip would be the perfect  Christmas gift for his children. But even the most perfectly laid plans could not have prepared this family for the evil that awaited them. It's been 50 years since Sherri  was murdered during a pitstop in Atlanta, GA. Her case remains unsolved. My wish this holiday season is for Sherri's case to be solved and justice to be served.

On September 11, 2021, Wendell Stradford marked his 63rd birthday, the birth of his granddaughter, and the end of his nearly forty-year career with the NYPD. Detective Stradford aged out of service after having spent the bulk of his career working and solving cold cases. There were many successes in the detective's time on the job, but there were many challenges that came along with it. He joined the Department in 1984 prior to the consolidation of the New York City Transit Police and Housing Authority Police in 1995. Stradford built a reputation as a superb investigator and proud public servant despite the dangers of policing. While off-duty, Stradford made sure to carve out time to coach his children and local high school athletes. He's coached several basketball teams including the Police Athletic League and has served as the longtime assistant coach at St. Peter's Boys High School on Staten Island. After a long career chasing down criminals and solving heinous crimes, Stradford was asked to share his expertise consulting on TV crime shows, which is how he's been spending time in retirement.

There are more than 250,000 unsolved murders in the United States and law enforcement simply does not have the personnel or resources to investigate all of them. As a result, average citizens, private investigators, and the media have come together to help reinvestigate many of these cold cases. In this episode, Glynn Cosker talks to AMU criminal justice and forensic science professor, Jen Bucholtz, about her work as a private investigator to investigate several cold cases. Learn how she has used the power of crowdsourcing and social media to engage people and uncover new information, and how advancements in DNA technology and forensic genealogy are helping police solve more cases. Also hear why it's so important for law enforcement agencies to embrace the assistance of outside sources to help bring justice for the families of these victims.

In early February of 2012, Colleen Margaret Povey was in the final days of her breast cancer battle. As her family surrounded her hospital bedside, her eyes remained fixed on the door, desperately searching for the faces of her daughter and granddaughter whom she hadn't seen in nearly three and a half years. As Colleen's body became weaker, she squeezed her husband Scott's hand and asked; ‘Is Karlie and Khandalyce here yet?' These were Colleen Povey's final words, and within hours she passed away at the age of just 44. This is the heartbreaking story of 20-year-old Karlie Pearce-Stevenson, and her 2-year-old daughter Khandalyce Pearce. For links, click here!

Et, une fois n'est pas coutume, on conclue avec le jeu de la semaine, enfin, selon deux de nos chroniqueurs, Chase : Cold Case Investigations.Monsieur Phal nous parle lui de Bubblee Pop.
