I have been watching "First 48" on A&E since it started airing. Think it is a great show, with real drama. Life and death drama.

But, that being said, it seems to me that after further review and years of watching, that criminals and suspects need to keep their mouths shut. Lawyer up and not say a word. Almost every single murder investigation hinges on some kind of a confession. Rarely, do they bring a suspect in and not care at all what he says because the warrant is iron clad.

I guess O.J. had it right..Deny, deny, deny...Even when that got you on videotape, smiling at the surveilance camera, with you holding your license by your face, DENY!

Anyone else got some observations of the show??
Or observations of murder investigations?

Even if innocent, I'd request a lawyer...regardless of the crime, it's probably best to shut your mouth and ask for an attorney every time.

That said, criminals are dumb. You can count on it 99.9% of the time. They'll almost always do something to get themselves caught.

9 out of 10 murders on that show occur in Memphis.

I love that show and Cold Case that comes on A&E also. And Forensic Files...all murder investigation shows really.

I love when they do Memphrica on the show, makes me glad I didn't live there for long LOL. Most of the criminals are dumb, thats why they resort to crime in the first place, and they always think that they are "smarter" than the cops

that show solidified to me that cops in fact get paid to lie to you. good show though.

I heard that the mayor of Memphis told them they could not film all the Memphis detectives anymore. Giving Memphis a bad name.

between CSI and First 48-keep your mouth shut, wear a rubber suit so you dont leave any fibers or seaman and you will get away with anything

Very sound advice. Another would be to turn your cell phone off so you dont ping on the towers and they can follow you.

This thread is starting to become a how to thread. "Volnation's Guide to Murder" That being said. After you kill someone DON'T brag to all your friends about it or use the dead person's credit card, cell phone or car!
