Think "Cold Case" meets "CSI" with a bit of "Rizzoli & Isles" mixed in, then make it real. That's the formula for this unscripted procedural drama that follows two veteran female investigators as they attempt to crack murder cases that have lingered for years without answers and closure. Kelly Siegler is an attorney and former Texas prosecutor who successfully tried 68 murder cases in her 21 years on the job, including 20 capital murder death penalty cases in which she secured the death penalty in 19 of those trials. She gets help from veteran detectives, who dig into small-town murder cases that have gone unsolved for years in the hope of getting justice for the victims and their loved ones.

Nancy DeWolf Smith Wall Street Journal 04/29/2019
When the murder of a loved one goes unsolved, says a grieving daughter in the new show, it is "like a dark cloud that follows you everywhere you go." It's nice to think that cloud no longer shadows the lives of some people here. Go to Full Review

"Cold Justice" picks up considerably in its second episode and seems as if it might be a worthy addition to the genre. Go to Full Review
Brian Lowry Variety 09/27/2013
While some of those made-for-TV encounters feel a little stilted, they do tend to pull you along, wanting to see how the drama plays out. Go to Full Review

04/02/2018 This show is a waste of time. Cold cases are investigated, however, remain unsolved at the conclusion of the episode. What’s the point? Why did I waste my time learning how you investigated annunsolved crime in which the “investigation remains ongoing.” What a joke. See more Read all reviews
