The First 48 Presents Critical Minutes

Heat of the Moment (3x11)

Air date: Apr 24, 2025

Three cases from The First 48 archive where confrontations went from heated to deadly in the blink of an eye. In Tulsa, an encounter on the street escalates into gunfire, leaving a mother dead. Then, in Dallas, a case of brutal overkill takes detectives by surprise. And in Mobile, a security guard at a bar becomes a target for revenge.
