The Glendale Police Department Criminal Investigations Division is asking the public for assistance in solving homicides which are now considered “cold case” investigations.
The term “cold case” refers to any criminal investigation in which all known leads have been investigated, and evidence is being re-examined to determine if further scientific analysis is necessary.
In many cases, citizens have information about these crimes that could provide detectives with a new approach or the ability to piece information that is already known together.
Anyone with information about the cases that are listed below with the victim’s name, are asked to call or email any of the following personnel or review each case below to submit a tip online.
