 "SPECIALIZING" IN DIFFICULT AND UNUSUAL CASES"

Cold Case Re-Investigation of Human Trafficking, Child Abduction, Homicides & Death Investigation Cases.

"Cold-Case Investigations:
                    
Solving Unresolved Homicides - Suicides"

A cold case is any criminal investigation by a law enforcement agency that has not been solved for (generally) at least one year and, as a result, has been closed from further regular investigations. A cold case may be closed for various reasons such as: previously available technology was not able to adequately analyze the evidence in order to form a conclusion; witnesses were hostile and uncooperative; various time constraints hindered the investigation; the originally assigned detectives had a heavy workload; a lack of worthwhile leads stalled the case.

Almost every law enforcement agency in the United States and in foreign countries have cold cases on their books that could be reopened and solved. However, since agencies have limited amounts of manpower and resources, usually only the most terrible cold cases such as violent crime are re-opened. Plus, violent crimes such as homicides and sexual assaults are well matched to being re-opened as cold case reviews because such cases, generally produce the most evidence. However, the decision to re-open a cold case is also dependent on many other factors including: the overall severity and cruelty of the crime, cooperativeness, whereabouts, number of witnesses, age of the crime, amount and condition of the inventory (including physical evidence) relevant to the case, whereabouts of previously identified suspects, and new technology and tools that may help to determine evidence previously unable to be solved. Oftentimes, cases are reviewed and prioritized according to the likelihood of an eventual solution with the highest priority cases given to those in which new witnesses, information, and evidence can now identify suspects.

Usually only the most talented and experienced law enforcement investigators are assigned to cold cases because of the thoroughness, persistence, and high motivation necessary to review the large numbers of detective notes, patrol reports, photographs, electronic information, laboratory documents, crime scene drawings and diagrams, witness lead sheets, and suspect information. Important characteristics required of cold crime members include: strong communication and interpersonal skills, seniority, strong research skills and deductive reasoning, creativity, patience, and enthusiasm. Sometimes a special "Cold Case Squad" may be organized, either temporarily or permanently, to deal solely with cold cases especially, when current cases prevent such older cases from being worked. In nearly all scenarios, cold case investigations present many varied and intense challenges to any law enforcement agency.

Do you have and unsolved case that has fallen through the cracks and not receiving the attention it deserves? Call our VIP cold case unit we can assist you by re-investigating and offering you a fresh perspective!

When a child is lost, what goes with them is larger than words can describe. Parents, siblings, family and friends all lose an important piece of their future. Their bereavement grows every day that their son or daughter does not return, and their emotional needs very quickly become overwhelming. The grief of a parent has no limits, but in cases where the child's condition is unknown or known to have been fatal, criminal investigations can help families find closure. In the United States, it is the job of sworn law enforcement officers and detectives to investigate these cases - but sometimes the police reach their resources' limits without discovering the truth. Under these circumstances, Valley Investigative Professionals can re-investigate any cold case of child abduction, human trafficking, homicides and death cases. We have our own CSI and investigative team which also consist of our in house Medical Forensics Specialist.

Please call, all cases are not the same!

Suicides

When family or friends first learn that a loved one is deceased there is a feeling of disbelief and shock. When those same family and friends learned the deceased has committed suicide, bewilderment is also added to those emotions. When the family or friends fail to agree with the labeled cause of death as suicide, they conduct their own inquiries. They contact all prospective agencies involved; police, coroner or medical examiner, treating physicians, pathologists, EMT's etc. When a family still feels the facts do not add up to suicide, it is common for an uninvolved third party to be contacted. The uninvolved third party is most often an experienced private investigator.
