Stockton, CA — The San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors has approved the creation of a new Countywide Cold Case Task Force, a collaborative, multi-agency initiative spearheaded by District Attorney Ron Freitas and Sheriff Pat Withrow. The task force will be dedicated to solving the County's more than 600 unsolved cases, including homicides, missing persons with suspicious circumstances, and sexual assaults.

San Joaquin County announced ten remaining dates for community clean-up events in 2024, inviting residents to dispose of unwanted trash and household items.

As part of San Joaquin County’s aggressive, multiyear illegal dumping campaign, the Board of Supervisors celebrated winners of the recent K-12 Student Art Contest that created artwork for the next phase of the public education, eradication, and enforcement campaign focused on combatting illegal dumping and littering across the County.
