Serial Killer Connections Through Cold Cases
NIJ has a long history of supporting efforts to help investigate cold cases. These investigations have revealed that, in many cases, the offenders are responsible for multiple crimes. As a result of NIJ’s programs, several serial killers and their victims have been identified including the Boston Strangler, the Killer Clown, and the Golden State Killer.
Anti-Bullying Intervention for Teachers Evaluated
NIJ-funded researchers developed and tested an integrated coaching and mixed-reality simulation strategy for teachers in urban Maryland middle schools called the Bullying Classroom Check-Up. This anti-bullying strategy is uncommon in that it focuses on developing skills in teachers, not students. The program showed positive, short-term outcomes.
