It takes a team to warm up cold cases
Until they are solved, these cases weigh heavily on families and communities, leaving lasting pain and unanswered questions. Cold cases bring some of the toughest challenges in forensic science — degraded evidence, lost context, and years without answers. But with the strategic use of advanced DNA technology, they can unlock powerful opportunities for justice.
At DNA Labs International, we take a collaborative, team-based approach to every cold case. Our dedicated client experience specialists work closely with your agency to conduct free-of-charge case reviews to identify the most promising evidence and craft an effective testing plan. We tailor each plan to your agency’s goals, balancing budget, timeline, and investigative value to get the most out of your evidence.
Our focus is centered on solving as many cold cases as possible, rather than processing large quantities of evidence without results. From the initial review to final reporting, we remain your partner at every step. Our case review team will continue to provide expert insight, guided case planning, and scalable testing options using tools from our DNA Toolbox™, including NGS, our proprietary bone protocol, mitochondrial DNA, and forensic investigative genetic genealogy.
Whether you’re working a single case or re-examining dozens, we’re equipped to help you generate new leads and move cases forward. With high-quality testing, a dedicated case review team, and adaptable services, we help agencies turn cold cases into solved cases.
