"48 HOURS" IS SATURDAY'S #1 SHOW AT 10:00 PM IN ADULTS 25-54, THE DEMOGRAPHIC MOST IMPORTANT TO THOSE WHO ADVERTISE IN NEWS, AS WELL AS VIEWERS, ADULTS 18-49 AND HOUSEHOLDS

48 HOURS: "The Usual Suspect" was Saturday's #1 program in both households and viewers, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for March 2, 2013.

Saturday's broadcast featured Correspondent Maureen Maher and the 48 HOURS team's investigation into the murder of a Memphis businesswoman, Tina Caronna. It is a story filled with betrayal, fast cars and a secret double life. Caronna was killed and left in her Chevrolet Avalanche on the side of the road. The police investigation exposed her husband Joe Caronna's double life, which included a history of financial fraud and a mistress. The mistress wore a wire to help police. Close friends of the family would ultimately provide a key piece of information that helped lead to the arrest and prosecution of Joe Caronna for his wife's murder.
