Coconino County Cold Cases Need Help

Coconino County AZ Cold Case Unit members Joe Sumner, Amy Kelly
and Chuck Jones stand with the skull of an unidentified set of
remains that bears the entrance wound from a single gunshot. The
remains were originally found below Shoshone Point at the South
Rim of the Grand Canyon in 1933. (photo courtesy of Jake
Bacon/AZ Daily Sun)
Flagstaff AZ (September 18, 2012) – In 2005, the Coconino County
Sheriff’s Office developed a Cold Case Squad to review cases
that have not been solved.
There are over twenty eight (28) unsolved Coconino County
homicides under review by the Cold Case Squad. Some of these
cases date back to 1955 when many forensic tools were
unavailable for investigations.
All members of the Coconino County Cold Case squad are
volunteers. Members of the Cold Case Squad developed forensic
and investigative expertise during careers with the Federal
Bureau of Investigations (FBI), Department of Public Safety
(DPS) Investigations, DPS Crime Lab, Forensic Nursing, Courtroom
Proceedings and Judgements, Crime Scene Investigations, National
Park Service Law Enforcement, and many other specialities.

The goal of the Coconino County Cold Case Squad is to be able to
state with confidence that everything is being done or has been
done to solve cold case files. Whenever possible, evidence from
these cases will be re-examined using the newest scientific
methods.
One of the more prominent cases being worked by the Cold Case
Squad is known as the “Devil Dog Doe Case.”
The Devil Dog Doe cold case is the homicide of a female who was
discovered off of Devil Dog Road, west of Williams, Arizona in
October 2003.
HTML https://i.imgur.com/v0ItFzj.png
Devil Dog Doe (2)
One of the first goals of the squad is to identify the Jane Doe
victim, also known cordially as Devil Dog Doe. (see artist
renderings to right)
Efforts to identify the Devil Dog Jane Doe have included
numerous interactions with law enforcement agencies, both
nationally and internationally.
The case and artist’s renditions of the victim were publicized
in the Arizona Republic and the Arizona Daily Sun, as well as on
websites such as the National Center for Missing Adults, the Doe
Network, and America’s Most Wanted and now the SedonaEye.com.
HTML https://i.imgur.com/SBe6zIh.png
With the assistance of the Violent Crime Analysis Unit of the
FBI, this was the first homicide case to be published in the
Academy of General Dentistry.
Chemical analyses point to possible regions in which the Devil
Dog Jane Doe victim may have resided. While this case has
produced many promising leads, the identity of the victim
remains unknown. The public’s help is necessary to solve this
case and bring a murderer to justice, and a name and family to
Devil Dog Jane Doe.

case and or others:
