COLD CASES
Nearly 340,000 cases of homicide and non-negligent manslaughter went unsolved from 1965 to 2021
To use the FBI's terminology, the national "clearance rate" for homicide today is 64.1 percent. Fifty years ago, it was more than 90 percent.
And that's worse than it sounds, because "clearance" doesn't equal conviction: It's just the term that police use to describe cases that end with an arrest, or in which a culprit is otherwise identified without the possibility of arrest — if the suspect has died, for example.
Criminologists estimate that at least 200,000 murders have gone unsolved since the 1960s, leaving family and friends to wait and wonder.
Homicide detectives say the public doesn't realize that clearing murders has become harder in recent decades.
premeditation
planning, plotting or deliberating before doing something. Premeditation is an element in first degree murder and shows intent to commit that crime.
