Prosecutor confident in agencies investigating murder of Cody Pitts in Hubbard

http://www.wfmj.com/story/34620474/...investigating-murder-of-cody-pitts-in-hubbard

Trumbull County Prosecutor Dennis Watkins said that unfortunately the Cody Pitts case is still unsolved but he is very satisfied with the way the investigation has been handled by multiple departments in the Trumbull County Homicide Squad.

He added that murders sometimes take years to solve in large and small cities alike not because of where the crimes happened but because of the circumstances in the cases.

He could not discuss the investigation or where it stands but said that it is their priority to solve any of these old homicides.
