The Cold Case Squad has four volunteers (three retired police officers and a former prosecutor) assigned to investigate the cases under the supervision of Violent Crimes Unit sworn detectives. These cold cases involve Eugene homicide victims and missing persons who were members of our community and have families and friends who continue to seek justice and closure in their cases.
The public plays a crucial role in helping to solve these cases and EPD has multiple ways to contact the investigators, including through an anonymous tip line.
