At
least one unsolved homicide may be solved before the end of Killing Fields
season two.

As
Detectives Rodie Sanchez and Aubrey St. Angelo get closer to solving the
homicide
of Curtis “Cochise” Smith, who first went missing in 1991, tensions
rise over the safety of a key witness.

Arlene,
who was close to the suspect (local businessman Tommy Francise) at the time of
Smith’s disappearance, may be the strongest lead the detectives have in
connecting Francise with the homicide.

Despite
confessing to killing Smith in self-defense and putting his body in a barrel,
authorities were unable to charge Francise without a body. But the remains of a
John Doe
first discovered in 2005 and Arlene’s testimony just may be the
missing pieces Det. Sanchez and St. Angelo need.

But
in the sneak peek, getting to Arlene may not be as easy as they thought. The
authorities discover that news travels quickly in Iberville Parish, Louisiana, as
they watch Francise follow Arlene into a grocery store. And now, they have to
consider everyone’s safety before moving in on their prime suspect.

Killing
Fields airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Discovery Channel.
