Can you open a cold case?

Just that really?

No. You can offer fresh evidence to the police and they can re investigate if they think it appropriate.

Ah, Even if the crime was a terrible one? I never knew that.

Sorry OP, are you asking if a member of the public can open a cold case?

You can investigate privately, anyone can.

What's the case?

People do their own research as Champagne says, if you have an interest, there's nothing to stop you researching it.
