Missing Persons Cases by John Ferriso
Our Sisters in Crime chapter met over Zoom with retired detective, John Ferriso, formerly of the Missing Persons Squad of the NYPD, to discuss important factors in developing a case for a story. Across Ferriso’s 20-year career, he worked on countless cold cases and missing persons cases. Ferriso’s book of short stories, All in a Day’s Work: An Officer Accounts 20 Years NYPD, was published on Amazon Kindle.
The event was organized by Sharon Dukett. Thanks, Sharon!
