Joe Kenda Biography

Lt. Joe Kenda is a retired Colorado Springs Police Department detective lieutenant who was involved in 387 homicide cases over a 23-year career, solving 356, a closure rate of 92%. He was featured on the Investigation Discovery television show "Homicide Hunter," in which he recounted stories of cases he has solved. The final episode of "Homicide Hunter" aired in January of 2020.

Kenda, who had been fascinated by crime from a young age, abandoned plans for a career with the Foreign Service after a classified briefing with the Central Intelligence Agency left him unimpressed.

Kenda was born and raised in Herminie, Pennsylvania, about 30 miles away from Pittsburg. He holds a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Pittsburgh and a master's degree in international relations from Ohio State University.
