CIR vs. FBI

The Center for Investigative Reporting, which recently launched an effort to focus on unsolved civil rights cases, today criticized the FBI's decision to close dozens of such unsolved cases.

"So the FBI's decision to close, without prosecution or further disclosure, all but a few of the 108 unsolved murder cases it began re-examining three years ago, only highlights the vital need for investigative reporting that can find the truth, tell the stories and fill in the gaps in our nation's history," the CIR release stated.
