This was an amazing episode of Without a Trace. It was cleverly written and had a very strong message. I am from New Orleans, and they not only had a very good missing person case, but they also made a strong statement about the condition down in New Orleans. Also, Roselyn Sanchez (Elena) wasn't in this show that much. I find her rather obnoxious, so I was glad to not see her in this episode.
The show, about an evacuee from New Orleans, Louisiana Post-Katrina, was a political statement. It was partially about a man who went missing in NYC after riding in a boat in the flooded part of New Orleans with his two children, but it was also about the condition of New Orleans. CBS made a statement about New Orleans so the country could know what's happening down here. I thought this was an excellent episode, and I advise you to watch it.

This episode was wonderfully done. I just had the opportunity to view it although it aired in 2006. I started watching older episodes during the early morning hours and now make sure to catch the prime time new episodes!
The backdrop of Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath on this one family was poignant. The idea of having someone "missing" after surviving such a harrowing ordeal created a unique energy that is sometimes lacking. Often the "missing" individual's back story is not compelling for me to sit through an entire episode.
I often research the music that is used during this series. I was wondering who was the singer/group that sang "Precious Lord" during the end of the episode? Any ideas out there?
