The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office has released a new episode of its self-produced podcast show, “The Lead.” This episode features Cold Case Detective John Cogburn about the 2005 case of an unidentified woman who was found inside a blue container. Cogburn gives a rare, inside look at every aspect of this case, as he was one of the first detectives to arrive at the scene.
Additionally, the PBSO’s Social Media Unit has created a new Facebook group dedicated to cold cases called “Palm Beach County Cold Cases” and invited web sleuths and all those who are interested in helping detectives with unsolved cases. Within 24 hours of opening the group, more than 2,500 members have joined.
“This is like a force multiplier,” said Sheriff Ric Bradshaw when he was asked about the power of web sleuths.
The podcast can be located on the PBSO web site, along with several other features, at www.pbso.org/the-lead or any major podcasting app.
