What is the First 48?

Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Hi,
Usually the first 48 means the first 48 hours in a police investigation. The first 48 hours are the most crucial in order for the police to have a good chance at solving a crime. Usually after 48 hours if the police don't have a lead, a break or a suspect in a case, their chances of solving that crime are cut in half.

Of course now there is a t.v. show called the First 48. This show follows real life detectives who are involved in trying to solve various crimes around for the first 48 hours to see how many clues and leads they can find. It's actually a really good show since it is completely based on reality. The first 48 hours usually begins when the detectives get to the crime scene.

I personally love the show "The First 48". I can watch it all day. It amazes me that the police has such little technology and they rely on statements, usually of the defendant himself. There was a study that before and after miranda rights were required, there has not been a decrease in voluntary statements from criminal defendants. I guess it is just the human ego that thinks they can get out a crime by out talking the trained investigators, but it ALWAYS hurts them.
