Hot Cases

Cold case or what we are calling a Hot Case refers to a crime or accident that has not been solved and is not the subject of current criminal investigation or civil litigation, but for which new information could emerge from new witness testimony, re-examined archives, retained material evidence, as well as fresh activities of the suspect. New technical methods developed after the case can be used on the surviving evidence to re-analyze the causes, often with conclusive results.

The Stone County Sheriff's Office will soon list a few "Hot Cases" and encourages the general public to help us solve them. Anyone having any information may contact the Sheriff's Department at 870-269-3825.
