Case Cold is a project created and maintained by the students and faculty of the Journalism New Media (JNM) Program at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
The goal of the project is to bring attention to unsolved cases in the communities near Sheridan College with the hope that this increased focus could bring justice for the victims, and their families and friends.
The project began in 2019. The 2018/19 JNM class completed the initial research and began to design the online content. The JNM class of 2019/20 continued the work by completing many interviews and preparing materials for publication. The website and other interactive materials were first published in the spring of 2020. . The first two cases presented by the project are the murder of OPP officer William McIntyre in 1984 and the disappearance of 4-year-old Cameron March in 1975.
