Seventy-five law enforcement investigators from six Pennsylvania counties will gather to hear lectures by members of the Vidocq Society, experts in analyzing evidence in cases that have gone unsolved for years, and to present their own cold cases for review.

Some of the topics to be addressed include: maintaining the integrity of a crime scene, interviewing and interrogation, blood spatter and DNA analysis, toxicology, entymology, drug gangs, ritual killings, polygraph examination and criminal profiles.

The conference is co-hosted by Berks County District Attorney John T. Adams, Northampton District Attorney John Morganelli and Carbon County District Attorney Gary F. Dobias.
