This is Vito Spano, the former commanding officer of the Cold Case Squad, at the beginning of his career. (He looks like a young Al Pacino, doesn’t he?) He will be with me this Saturday at the Museum of the City of New York to discuss the history of cold case work. The details:

Saturday, July 23rd, 2PM
Museum of the City of New York
1220 Fifth Avenue at 103rd Street.
(Take the #6 to 103rd, or the #2 or #3 to 110th Street.)

I put together a slide show about unsolved homicides and I’m giving it for the first time at the Barnes & Noble on 6th Avenue at 22nd Street, at 7PM on Monday, July 18th.

Det. Wendell Stradford just said something very nice to me. (It looks a little like I’ve wandered into The Land of the Giants, doesn’t it?)

These three photographs were taken by Ben Rosengart, photo@narcissus.net. Thank you, Ben!

Retired Deputy Inspector Vito Spano and retired Detective Chuck Harrison, both from the Cold Case Squad.
