Uncovered

I’m certain each of you have a friend, family member, or colleague that won’t shut up about the latest true crime podcast or documentary they’ve been binging.

But, did you know that since 1980, more than 200,000 cases have gone cold where either a murder took place, or a missing person was considered to have experienced serious bodily harm?

And unfortunately, that number is going up by more than 5,000 cases every year.

We built Uncovered to combine that interest in consuming content for the sole purpose of entertainment and shift it to a desire and willingness for community advocacy and help bringing peace to the families of these murdered or missing people.

With nearly 50,000 cases in our database and almost 100,000 visitors coming to our site each month, we’re now seeing over 300 crowdsourced contributions submitted every single week. And, in January, our community solved its first case!

💻 Learn - dive into the timeline of events, see the map of relevant locations, and understand all the people important to the case

🔔 Follow - as you find people whose cases speak to you, follow them. You’ll be notified whenever there’s new information

🔗 Contribute - no one can do everything, but everyone can do something! Help us crowdsource the gaps and connect the dots in cases near you

🗞️ Read - The Citizen Detective newsletter gives you a run-down of what's going on in the true crime world, connects the dots on cold cases, breaking news, upcoming content, and advocacy opportunities

🗣️ Share - outside of DNA, what breaks cases open is sharing information and using your platform to bring awareness to the cases that don’t get as much attention

🙋 Join - when you raise your hand, you make a choice to be counted, and counted upon, as part of a movement that calls upon collective impact to uncover answers in unsolved cases

We need more than just not-for-profits and government entities to solve society's biggest problems. That’s why we organized as a Public Benefit Corporation and donate 2% of our revenue to other organizations working hard on behalf of the families in these cases.

So, head to uncovered.com/cases – zoom in on your hometown and when you find a case that speaks to you, follow it, and who knows, maybe you have information that could lead to it being solved?

Together, we can make a difference.
