Sydnee Scofield
Sydnee is a former host of a national daily crime show on Roku, Tubi, and a few other streaming services. She regularly interviewed experts in the criminal justice system all across the world, including judges, investigators, psychologists, attorneys, and forensic scientists. The part of the job she found most rewarding was hearing the stories from the loved ones of cold case victims.
She has been an anchor and reporter at KRDO in Colorado Springs, CO; KHQ in Spokane, WA; and KOLO in Reno, NV. During her time in Colorado, she won an Emmy for her story highlighting the impact of the conflict in Ukraine on a Colorado woman. She also won a Regional Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Writing while working in Spokane.
Sydnee has worked to shine a light on unsolved cases across the country and is grateful for the opportunity to continue that work in North Carolina. If there are cases that deserve more attention, or issues in the criminal justice system that more people need to know about, please reach out to Sydnee.
She's excited to bring her passion for covering crime, courts, and unsolved cases to the Triangle.
When she's not at work, Sydnee spends her time cooking, reading, playing disc golf, and getting outside with her dog, Gravy, and her partner, Sam.
