The Cold Case Squad investigates unsolved violent crimes where all logical leads were exhausted by the original investigators, and at least five years have passed since any investigative efforts have concluded. Officers will not respond due to a Facebook message.
***********************************************
The Virginia Beach Police Department’s Cold Case Homicide Unit (CCHU) is staffed with t
wo full-time Detectives and two part-time investigators. CCHU is also assisted by a team of cold case volunteers who are periodically called upon to review unsolved homicide cases. The purpose of this site is to solicit information leading to an arrest and conviction of those responsible for these crimes. It is the belief of the Virginia Beach Police Department and the victims' families that there are people, other than the suspects, who have relevant information that will assist law enforcement in clearing these crimes. If you have information on any of these unsolved homicide cases, you are asked to contact CCHU using one of the following methods:

Send an email to [email protected], or
