DID C-MURDER DIE IN KATRINA?

One of the areas that the media has more or less forgotten in the mess after Katrina seems to be what happened to the convict population of New Orleans? We saw some footage of prisoners stood waiting to be picked up in the first couple of days after the levee broke, but then - nothing much.

Amongst those being held in jail in Louisiana prior to Katrina was C-Murder, Corey Miller, serving time for his part in a a nightclub shooting. His brother, Master P, hasn't heard from him since:

"We don't know exactly how they've been treating the people that's been incarcerated. I know they said some inmates fled, some inmates was killed, some inmates they was transported to somewhere else.

"Even though these people are inmates they still have loved ones out here that are definitely worried about them. He's still fighting a case right now, which is a mistaken identity... He's fighting a battle right now."

Maybe this is something the networks might want to look into - even if they don't care much about the fate of prisoners, the hint that some might have escaped during the tragedy could get them interested.

Update: C Murder has turned up, safe and well in Angola
