Gone is a true crime series that premiered on Investigation Discovery on July 24, 2017. The show follows criminal investigations into missing persons cases that have gone cold, and the episodes retrace the events leading up to the person's disappearance through reenactments, interviews with family and law enforcement, and archival footage. The show is hosted by actor Chris Noth, known for his roles in Sex and the City and Law & Order. In each episode, Noth provides context to the missing person's case and the investigation that follows, outlining any suspects or leads that were followed up on. One of the unique aspects of Gone is that it delves into cases that have been closed or ended in convictions, rather than simply focusing on open cases. The idea behind this approach is to provide closure to families who have suffered from the pain of a missing loved one for years, and to highlight the hard work that law enforcement goes through to bring justice to victims and their families. Throughout the series, the audience is introduced to victims both young and old, male and female, and from different backgrounds. For instance, in one episode, the focus is on a college student who goes missing after leaving a party, while another centers on a woman who vanishes without a trace from her workplace. The cases also span across different states and countries, highlighting the complex nature of missing persons investigations. The reenactments in the show are well-done and help to recreate the facts of the case in a realistic manner. Showcasing the victim's last known movements, as well as any potential suspects, the reenactments make it easy for viewers to visualize the events of the missing person's case. Meanwhile, interviews with family members of the missing person and with law enforcement officials who worked on the case provide an emotional and personal side to the narrative and highlight the impact that each disappearance case has on those involved. Another interesting aspect of Gone is the inclusion of advancements in technology and forensic science to revitalize cold cases. The use of forensic techniques such as DNA testing or facial recognition software can help solve cases where prior investigations failed. The show also highlights the importance of community involvement in solving crimes, showcasing the efforts of local organizations that have aided in the search for missing persons. In conclusion, Gone is a gripping and emotionally engaging true crime series that provides a unique perspective on missing persons cases. With its reenactments, interviews, and inclusion of scientific advancements, the show strives to draw attention to the complexities of missing persons investigations while paying tribute to victims and their families.
