Twisted Honor Vultures

Any detective will tell you that the beginning is the most important time in a criminal investigation. If there are no significant developments within the first 48 hours, the chances of solving the case are cut in half. THE FIRST 48 chronicles this critical period, following real-life detectives as they race the clock to identify suspects and unravel clues while the crime is still fresh. THE FIRST 48 heads to Phoenix, where Detective Dave Barnes must track down desperate lovers in order to solve a savage shotgun murder. Next, San Antonio Detective Tom Froelick and his team find a woman's body in a wooded area. Witnesses reveal that she was last seen with an unknown man.
