Three Australian detectives toured D.C.’s cold case squad Monday hoping to learn, and to teach their Yankee counterparts how things are done Down Under.

Victoria Police Detective Sgt. Mick Daly and Detectives Tim Moreland and Russell Sheather were on a three-city tour of the U.S. to examine how Americans handle homicide investigations. The trio came to D.C. because, as Sheather said, “you’ve got a reasonable crime rate.”
