Cold Case Lab Cologne: Students to Reopen Unsolved Homicide Cases
A groundbreaking initiative, the 'Cold Case Lab Cologne' model project, is set to reopen unsolved homicide cases in Cologne and its vicinity. Led by Professor Dr. Anja Schiemann, Max Marchi, and Selin Özyildirim, the project involves students employing scientific methods to revisit these 'cold cases'. The public is invited to a press conference on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at the University of Cologne's Main Building.
The project, launched in October 2024, aims to contribute to the clarification of unsolved homicide cases in the region. Students will re-analyze these cases using modern scientific methods, potentially shedding new light on old mysteries. The project is open to interested students, with registration requested via email at [email protected].
The press conference, scheduled for 10:00 AM on October 7, 2025, will be attended by key figures including Public Prosecutor Jane Wolf and Chief Inspector Markus Weber of the Cold Case Investigation Group. They, along with the project leaders, will be available for information and statements. Media representatives are welcome, with a meeting point at 9:45 AM in the foyer of the main building.
The 'Cold Case Lab Cologne' project offers a unique opportunity to revisit unsolved homicide cases using scientific methods. With the support of the University of Cologne and the involvement of key law enforcement figures, this initiative seeks to bring closure to families and justice to victims. The upcoming press conference promises insights into the project's goals and progress.
