Answer:

Cold case squads

Step-by-step explanation:

Cold case squads investigate unsolved crimes that were abandoned as there was not enough evidence at the time to pursue. The case is picked up again when the possibility exists of finding new evidence from old case reports, retained evidence and/or new witnesses report. The squad follows up on the new leads with the help of the new technology available to identify criminals.
