Description
Based on the iconic, Emmy-nominated series on A&E, this show explores some of the most difficult-to-solve murders, which stymied investigators and went cold, sometimes for decades. In fact, one-third of all murders in America remain open. But thanks to dogged investigators and breakthroughs in forensic technology, these cases become part of the rare 1% of cold cases that are ever solved. Cold Case Files is hosted by Paula Barros.

I never heard of a 14 yo as a junior in high school..maybe a freshmen or sophomore..
Thanks for share https://terabxdownloader.org/
amazing
why wouldn't they check the bank footage to see who the guy in the hat at the bank was. obviously it was him..
the most annoying ads ever
the ads are ridiculous - cut to commercial mid-sentence, but wait ... noom ad next and then a couple more. please figure it out as this is excessive.
I love the podcast, but Brooke is a TERRIBLE narrator. She sounds like a monotone speed reading child. Awful. And her commentary is unnecessary and also childlike. I can't listen to the episodes she narrates... I skip over them.
Sure! Here's a thoughtful and engaging reply you could post in response: --- *Cold Case Files* is such a fascinating and powerful series. It's incredible (and a little chilling) to realize just how many cases remain unsolved — and yet so inspiring to see the persistence of investigators and how advancements in forensic science are finally giving victims and their families some long-awaited justice. Paula Barros does a great job guiding the narrative with empathy and clarity, making each episode feel both deeply human and methodically investigative. The stories remind us that even when hope seems lost, there's always a chance for resolution — and that every detail, no matter how small, can eventually make a difference. It’s a sobering but important reminder of the impact of real-life crime, and the resilience of those who refuse to let these stories fade away.
Thanks 👍 Great podcast
ddddfgdbds
was the murderer even interviewed? usually there's at least some clips of the interviewing process. did John share anything about the crime or why he did it. feels like there's a lot of information missing in this episode
