Jawad is missing, so it’s not technically a cold case, but I think these still apply!
1. Know and name the crime(s) you are trying to solve.
2. Review all existing evidence. Pay close attention to any details that might have been missed.
3. Create a timeline.
4. Interview potential witnesses.
5. Follow every lead.
6. Treat everything as evidence.
7. Don’t take no for an answer.
8. Don’t go into a creepy house that white kids in slasher flicks would go into on a dare.
9. Trust your gut.
10. Document everything. And keep the receipts!
