September is National Cold Case Month, aimed at bringing attention to missing people and crimes that have faded from the headlines but remain unsolved.
But as the month draws to a close, a North Texas police detective who launched a national database called ‘Solve the Case’ urges continued community vigilance for unresolved investigations across the nation and here at home.“These cases not being important just one month or one day, these cases are important every day,” said Det. Aaron Benzick. “We’d like to challenge different groups for a call to action on some of these cold cases that maybe aren’t being talked about.
“It’s just frustrating that families like mine have to wake up every single day and wonder if today is going to be the day they get some closure and some kind of sense of peace,” she said through tears.“It organizes the points of interest it creates a timeline and just lets you visualize the different facts of the public information on a case,” said Benzick.
DFW Airport Police found her phone, whose battery had died, at the airport, according to information released at the time.
