How many homicides go unsolved--statistically? Why do you think that is the case?

35 percent of police have never Identified who killed their friends, relatives, neighbors or acquaintances. I think that the reason why that many homicides go unsolved is because the numbers or rates of deaths have gone up rapidly.

The different types that a mystery can be solved is by looking closely at the photographs for clues, look for missing items in the crime scene ( like rooms, alleys, etc.), think of motives that the suspect could have (as in act like the suspect). Also you could check medical records for like mental illness, etc., interview any witnesses and another way to solve a mystery is to check all family history as in criminal records.
