Webinar: Reopening the File: Cold Case Homicides

A homicide case may go cold, but the pursuit of justice never ends. All IAP individual and organisational members are invited to join us for a webinar organised by the IAP Global Training Academy.

Deadline registration: Wednesday 25 November 2026, 13:00 hrs BST / 14:00 hrs CET

Speaker: Alex Prentice KC, Senior Crown Counsel / High Court Prosecutor, Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, Scotland

Facilitator: Irina Beridze, Executive Programme Manager, International Association of Prosecutors 

This fascinating webinar examines the unique challenges of investigating and prosecuting cold case homicides, including the most difficult of all cases - those in which the victim's body has never been recovered. 

The session will explore how seemingly unsolvable cases can be revisited years, or even decades, later, bringing offenders to justice, even many years after the offence. Through practical insights and real-world case studies, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the determination, innovation and collaboration required to bring offenders to justice and deliver answers for victims' families.

This 60-minute webinar will be held in English. Attendees can access live, automated translated captions via the Zoom platform during the webinar. All attendees will receive a certificate of attendance. 

The webinar is open to all IAP organisational and individual members. Please note that the session will be recorded.

For more details, please contact Ms. Irina Beridze, Executive Programme Manager of the IAP, at epm@iap-association.org

We look forward to your participation!
