Main research question (S) How much time must pass by before a case is cold? How many kidnappings exist in the United states? It depends entirely on each individual case and its status with the respective investigating agency. As a general rule, a case goes “cold” once all leads hit a dead end or have been “run out.” When no further leads exist to investigate, local or state law enforcement officials will often refer to the case as having “gone cold.” According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (citing U.S. Department of Justice reports), nearly 800,000 children are reported missing each year. That's more than 2,000 a day. The NCMEC says 203,000 children are kidnapped each year by family members.

    IMPACT: International Journal of Research in Humanities, Arts and Literature (IMPACT: IJRHAL) ISSN(E): 2321-8878; ISSN(P): 2347-4564 Vol. 2, Issue 6, Jun 2014, 131-142 © Impact Journals CHALLENGES OF HOSTAGE-TAKING AND KIDNAPPING IN THE SOUTH EASTERN NIGERIA PROTUS NATHAN UZORMA 1 & JOHN NWANEGBO-BEN 2 1University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom, Nigeria 2Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria ABSTRACT Before now, hostage-taking and kidnapping have existed in varied forms and for varied reasons in Nigeria. But they were not known to be among the business ventures Nigerians are known for. However today, they have become a big industry and a steady source of income for many, particularly in the South-East. The duo crimes thrive almost in the entire neighbourhood in this region and the adjoining states. Many residents know the traders, where they operate, but watch helplessly as the culture of the area seems to consider any criminal venture that yields wealth to their citizens as “business,” especially if the criminal operates in areas far from home. What are the reasons behind this illicit business? Why and how are they flourishing in this region? Who are the perpetrators of the crime? What are their effects in the country? What is the Nigeria Police Force doing about it? These and many more form the fulcrum of this discussion. KEYWORDS: Peculiar Crime, Kidnapping, National Agencies INTRODUCTION The Phenomenon of Hostage-Taking and Kidnapping Hostage taking and Kidnapping are among the terrorising crimes in Nigeria. They are mostly common in the southern part of the country (South-South, South-East and South-West).

  • DA Announces Murder Charges in 33-Year- Old Cold Case from North County
    OFFICE OF HALL OF JUSTICE DAVID P. GREENBERG 330 WEST BROADWAY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY ASSISTANT DISTRICT ATTORNEY SAN DIEGO, CA 92101 COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO (619) 531-4040 SanDiegoDA.com SUMMER STEPHAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY August 4, 2020 Contact: Steve Walker (619) 531-3890 For Immediate Release Tanya Sierra (619) 531-3315 En Español Barbara Medina (619) 531-3305 DA Announces Murder Charges in 33-Year- Old Cold Case from North County James Kingery will be Arraigned Today in Julia Hernandez-Santiago Killing A 57-year-old Poway man has been charged with murder and rape in connection with the 1987 murder of Julia Hernandez-Santiago, whose body was found on an ivy-covered embankment in the 2100 block of Alga Road in Carlsbad 33 years ago. James Kingery will be arraigned on this morning’s calendar in Department 1 of the Vista Courthouse. “When a murder goes unsolved, not only is justice delayed, but families are left in turmoil with no closure,” District Attorney Summer Stephan said. “Working with Carlsbad Police Department detectives, who never gave up, our office is bringing a measure of justice to Ms. Hernandez-Santiago’s family and giving hope to other victims in unsolved cases.” Since it was established in 2003, the Cold Case Homicide Unit has played a role in solving and prosecuting numerous murders. The victims have come from all walks of life and from all areas of the county. The victims have included children and the elderly. The oldest case solved and prosecuted by the unit involves a murder that occurred in 1971, although cases have been reviewed that date back to the 1960s.

  • Status Report 2017
    New Hampshire Cold Case Unit Status Report For the Year 2017 Table of Contents Introduction 3 Staffing of the Unit 3-4 2017 Prosecutions 5 2017 Investigations 5-13 Suspicious Deaths 13 Anthony Imondi Case 13-14 Forensic Testing 15 Media Relations 15 Conclusion 15-16 2 CCU Annual Report 2017 Introduction On July 29, 2009, Governor John Lynch signed HB 690 into law, creating the first Cold Case Unit (CCU) in New Hampshire’s history. The CCU was specifically designed to investigate and prosecute unsolved homicide cases. See, RSA 21-M:8-m (2017 Supp.). That law also requires the N.H. Attorney General’s Office and the Department of Safety to issue a joint report annually to the Governor, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the President of the Senate, and the State Librarian “on activities and results of the cold case unit.” This report provides a background of the CCU and its activities in 2017. A cold case is a homicide investigation that has not resulted in an arrest and due to a lack of viable or unexplored leads, has lost its initial momentum. New Hampshire has approximately 130 unsolved homicide cases from jurisdictions across the State. A cold case may be reviewed and re-investigated periodically over the course of time as new leads emerge or new forensic testing techniques become available. This report cannot discuss the specifics of all of the activities of the CCU, as these investigations involve on-going homicide investigations. Many more cases were under review and re-investigation by the CCU in 2017, than can be discussed in this report.

  • Rational Choice Theory of Crime: Punishment Implications for Kidnapping in Nigeria
    Practicum Psychologia 6, 43-52 ©The Author(s) 2016 http://unizikpsychologia.org/ ISSN: 2006-6640 Rational Choice Theory of Crime: Punishment Implications For Kidnapping In Nigeria Chukwuemeka A. F. Okoye, Chiamaka O. Joe-Akunne, Bernard C. Chine Department of Psychology,Faculty of Social Sciences, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. Abstract This paper examined the position of the Rational Choice Theory vis-à-vis the commission of crime such as Kidnapping and how best to control it through the application of stiffer punishments. The authors approached this vexed issue by exploring the concept of Kidnapping and its categories. The paper also discussed theoretical approaches to the phenomenon of Kidnapping in Nigeria. The authors also aligned themselves with the position of the Rational Choice Theory by advocating for more proactive punishment regimen as a panacea to the phenomenon of Kidnapping in Nigeria. The paper therefore, recommended among others for confiscation and destruction of all properties accruing from this ignoble act of kidnapping in order to deter further commission of such crimes. Keywords: Rational choice, theory, punishment, Crime, Kidnapping. Introduction Background To The Paper The Rational choice theories of crime strongly argued that criminals have very strong prior intent to commit the act. In the opinion of these theorists, man is a reasoning actor who weighs means and ends, cost and benefits, and makes a rational choice. (Cornish and Clarke, 1986). The position of the rational theorists assumed that crime is a purposive behaviour designed to meet the offender’s common place needs for such things as money, status, sex and excitement, and that meeting these needs involves the making of decisions and choices (Clarke, 1997).
