The disappearance of a mother from Staten Island becomes the focus of this Saturday’s “New York Homicide.” When the beloved mother vanishes without a trace, NYPD detectives immediately suspect foul play. It seems unfathomable that she would willingly abandon her family, leading investigators to believe something far more sinister has occurred.
The first order of business is reconstructing the missing mother’s last known movements, retracing her steps to hopefully uncover clues to her whereabouts. But it’s the examination of CCTV footage that ultimately delivers a horrifying discovery, turning the search for a missing person into something far more disturbing. What began as a missing person’s case transforms into a complicated criminal investigation.
“New York Homicide” provides a gritty look at the relentless work of law enforcement in New York City. The episode “A Mother Missing” airs this Saturday at 9:00 PM on Oxygen.
