One article in this issue explores how a forensic intelligence approach to law enforcement has the potential for advancing the detection, investigation, and prosecution of serial and organized violent crimes in jurisdictions across the United States. Another examines how prioritizing cold case investigations can assist in apprehending persons who chronically offend, resolving crimes, and preventing future ones. The NIJ Journal, published several times a year, features articles to help criminal justice policymakers and practitioners stay informed about new developments. The NIJ Journal presents research-based information that can help inform policy decisions and improve understanding of the criminal justice system. Each issue of the NIJ Journal focuses on a single theme, allowing the articles to dive into one specific topic from different scientific points of view.
