#2: Initial revision
I believe this is part of the plot of the movie (spoiler below) > Memento although I'm going on the Wikipedia summary, as I've never seen it. I've read at least one sci-fi short story (dystopian future) where criminals went to a black market memory wiper and had their memories erased. The criminal became a different person; that "person" isn't the one who committed the crime. So I suppose the post-wiped person could become a detective who specializes in cold cases, and she eventually comes across a murder which is starting to sound naggingly familiar but she can't put her finger on why...
