The Oxnard Police Department is pleased to announce the creation of a Homicide Cold Case website. The purpose of the website is to allow the public to view unsolved cold case homicides in an attempt to seek information that could lead to the arrest and successful prosecution of a suspect, or sufficient information to resolve a case.
The Oxnard Police Department’s Cold Case Homicide mission statement is “To speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. To exploit the elements of time, technology, and advanced investigative techniques to investigate unsolved homicides. Our ultimate goal, and our greatest hope, is to obtain justice for the victims and their families.”
The Cold Case Homicide website gives the community access to the list of unsolved homicide cases from 1966 through 2012. The website also shares information on recent cold case homicides that resulted in the arrest of a suspect and cold cases that were resolved.

The City of Oxnard offers a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of suspect(s) in homicide cases. The Oxnard Police Department encourages members of the community to visit the Cold Case Homicide website. Detectives believe there are many lifelong residents in the City of Oxnard that may have direct knowledge or other important information that could aid in solving many of these cold case homicides. The Oxnard Police Department requests that anyone with information on a cold case homicide to contact Detective Jeff Kay at (805) 385-8174, or email Detective Kay at coldcase@oxnardpd.org.
