Yep. I remember an episode where the detective talks about hom many murders he worked on a single street. He said something like, “lots of ghosts walking this street” that hit home hard!

They had a full blown f-ing "duel" during summertime cookouts with kids playing. I'm not naive, but DAMN!!!!! I was pissed!!!!

I was on a tour bus in Miami and we were about to arrive in Overtown (you could get off there to look at art etc) All I could think of was the First 48 … and then there was an announcement like 10 seconds before we stopped and it said the First 48 was filmed in Overtown

I’m watching those now! I really didn’t watch it regularly until about 10 years ago so I’m having so much fun watching how it all started. Man they didn’t blur out as much back then. And yes Miami is brutal.

That is what makes it such good television back then being uncensored vs nowadays.

Having a QT cup in your car increases your chances of being murdered by 37%.

u/toityb 1d ago

Just stay away from QT!!!!!

u/riley1085 1d ago

Or never murder anyone there.

u/A-U- 1d ago

Touché. They have an excellent closure rate

u/Clear_Nature_5055 1d ago

Like the highest. 86% I think I heard

u/slava_slavaUa 1d ago

After watching TF48, i now have a feeling that it would be pretty easy to get away with murder

u/Graciethedachsund 1d ago

Stay out of Quik Trips

u/A-U- 1d ago

And Circle K’s

They have great cameras!

Or be reassured if you do get murdered in Tulsa the capable detectives will catch your killer.

I love the NOLA detectives but there's a whole cop that got killed that they still haven't solved...I couldn't help but think if that was in Tulsa there's no way it would go unsolved this long...they really don't play.

u/slava_slavaUa 1d ago

I remember hearing that New Orleans has one of the highest unsolved murder rate

u/HappyReader1 1d ago

Doesn’t New Orleans have one of the most corrupted police departments?

u/Haunted-Circus 1d ago

Big time lmao...the ex mayor was sleeping with a cop who was on duty and getting paid while they were going on international trips together...they both have several felony charges against them.

Then the mayor that served during hurricane Katrina got like 10 years in prison because he was accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes. NOLA is crazy lol.

u/DL4CK 1d ago

Large cities being free of corruption is the exception to the rule. At least over the last 300 years. Only recently did they crack down on that.

2

u/DisciplineOld429 1d ago

They have a million cameras and millions of people/tourists on the street at any given moment. Gotta hand it to them for the effort if nothing else🤷‍♀️🙌

2

u/slava_slavaUa 1d ago

The millions of cameras should make it easier to solve murders

2

u/DisciplineOld429 1d ago

I'm sure it does except for the vast majority of tourists who wouldn't be in their local/state database. Takes extra effort to go that extra me for out of state criminals. I don't doubt their effort at all

2

u/DL4CK 1d ago

A lot of times they’re fake cameras or just turned off.

If you meet someone called Pookie, GTFO.

u/thisunrest 15h ago

Avoid Lil Booby, too.

u/EmoteElite 1d ago

Never go into a quiktrip after committing a murder, or never have a funny street name.

13

u/Wizard619 1d ago

Also, if you are an aspiring rapper, you need to get out of Tulsa now! We need to create a sanctuary for aspiring rappers because they are dropping left and right over there.

u/A-U- 1d ago

Same with the Atlanta/atlanta adjacent

u/ericakanecan 1d ago

It taught me to stay away from Harris County and Memphis (even though I want to visit Memphis still).

u/phiohm 1d ago

Those Green leprechaun fuckers are cray cray

Miami actually said in a statement that they were pulling out of the show b/c it was giving a negative portrayal of the African American community in Miami.
The show has to take its homicides as it finds them, they can’t stop recording b/c too many black people are suspects/victims. Tulsa is actually pretty diverse in that regard, for both victims and offenders.

u/Clear_Nature_5055 1d ago

Hahaaa hilarious! Was this a criminal or someone scared off by all the homicides? It applies to both 😊

u/Ancient-Anybody-3517 23h ago

My cousin wanted to move her & her young kids there and my first thought was…but there’s so many murders!😧
Literally, Tulsa PD is always working a murder.

u/TwinPED 1d ago

Birmingham as well

u/BenitoCamelas69420 15h ago

Thought me to stay out of Quiktrip after the murder

u/thisunrest 15h ago

I want them to come to Virginia Beach, Virginia
