Get Your First Look At 'Snakes'

[CSI Files]

Nick has a slithery case on his hands in this Thursday's episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, the first footage of which was recently made available on the Internet.

Entitled "Snakes", the episode deals with the murder of a investigative journalist who was writing an inside story on the world of Mexican drug culture. As the CSIs proceed with their investigation, they discover that the circumstances of the journalist's death are eerily reminiscent of a narcocorrido, or Mexican drug ballad.
