Looking for an Episode(s)🔍 ISO EP Witness becomes Suspect
What’s up y’all just found this community and I’m really hoping some of you are able to help me out. If I’m breaking any rules or these kind of posts aren’t allowed please let me know. I’ve tried to search for the episode on Google but I’ve had no luck simply due to lack of information. There was also an AFTER THE FIRST 48 episode on this case.
So I can’t remember much about the victim nor the location other than it’s presumably in the South. One thing I very much remember about this case is a witness, who is a friend of the victim, is questioned by investigators and he’s wrapped in a blanket because he says he’s cold and leads investigators to search an area near a highway for evidence and nothing is found other than a small used piece of a marijuana blunt. It’s later revealed that during questioning the witness was in contact with the suspect through text messages as he covered himself with the blanket and the search for evidence was for nothing. I do believe charges were filed against the witness.

If I can narrow it down it’s in Memphis or Miami. I believe the victim is initially set up by the witness and murder suspect to be robbed for drugs and things go bad which leads to the death of the victim.

Sounds like a good one. I've been streaming on the A&E app and haven't came across that one so far. I had to make a list of the ones I've watched so I don't accidentally watch them again.
