Detective Chris McMullin's career of finding missing people and solving murders wasn't just his job. It was his passion and dedication to helping victims.
For thirty years, Chris worked at the Bensalem Police Department in Pennsylvania. He started as a patrol officer and became a detective in the Special Victims Unit, where he handled cases involving murderers, sexual predators, and violent criminals. Some of his most important cases included Lisa Todd, Christian Rojas, Tracy Byrd, and Barbara Rowan, a 14-year-old girl who was murdered in 1984 and whose case wasn't solved for 31 years. The Rowan case was especially important to Chris and motivated him to work on cold cases.
3 Decades Cold tells the story of Chris's impressive career, from joining the police academy in 1991 to his retirement and beyond.
Today, Chris McMullin works as a Lieutenant for the Bucks County Sheriff's Office in Pennsylvania. He now leads a nonprofit organization to work on cold cases and has a true crime TV show in development.
It might have taken Chris McMullin 3 decades to solve cold cases, but it took me only 4 hours ( 1 night) to devour his book. I was fascinated by his stories, also intrigued since I live in Bensalem, relieved when the killers were caught and Jane Does regain their names. I was unnerved to realize how many murders happened in Bensalem. Read the book.
As a lifelong resident of Bucks County, I appreciated everything Chris had to offer in this book. I loved how he went back and forth between his personal life/ career and the extensive details of the cold cases he worked. I have already recommended this book to basically everyone I know!
Absolutely loved reading about how Chris solved crimes in Bensalem, my hometown. You don’t realize all this stuff goes on in your neighborhood!! Absolutely loved that Chris’ added his personal story about his career and life!
