Cold Cases

Cold cases are crimes that are unsolved. Sometimes if a case becomes a cold case, it doesn't necessarily mean that the suspect(s) are unknown. Many times law enforcement has known suspects but there is not enough evidence to arrest them. Any piece of information that you may have may be very valuable to law enforcement. If you have any information on the following cases, please call the Edwards County Sheriff's Office. Remember, the victims families are always seeking answers!
