but our passions, along with her family's, can bring the answers to us:
most murderers rely on the fact no one is going to care after awhile and that is what makes a cold case frozen...in this case everyone involved is shocked and surprised how the nation has taken a genuine concern in the pursuit of her killers, especially the killers-- and we will not stop until they open their mouths and confess
Also, what makes a 'cold case' is lack of evidence and no further leads. The investigators have run the leads into dead ends.
When DNA became available many 'old cases' were resolved. There is a bank of unsolved cases that has some DNA evidence, only the authorities do not have persons of interest to match it to them. Waiting until a suspect in another case shows up and they can prove involvement in a previous case.
Oh, if passion could solve criminal case. It helps exceedingly. Only there has to be evidence. Or witness or confession, etc.
I pray Natalie's case is solved soon.
