This title presents real-life stories and expert insights into the fascinating world of cold-case investigations. In 1988, a 29-year-old preschool teacher, Julie Love, left the Atlanta home of her fiancee and was never seen alive again. A year later her skeletal remains were found in a trash dump. The police initially found no leads or physical evidence, and the case was officially shut down. Without the painstaking and dedicated work of professionals who reinvestigate and revive cases that others once abandoned, justice might never be have been served. "Delayed Justice" examines how cold case investigations differ from standard investigations and why cold case detectives sometimes have success where others failed. It also discusses the pitfalls of reopening long-unsolved crimes, such as lost or compromised evidence and the difficulty of getting accurate information from witnesses who must rely on fading memories.
