[[WMG: The second season will be centered around/allude to the Danziger Bridge shootings:]]
Considering the first season's interest in racial injustice and an alleged police cover-up, it seems unlikely that the shootings won't be at least mentioned in the show, and will probable be depicted in some way. Considering the officers responsible didn't go to trial until 2010 though, it seems unlikely that the show will actually be about the shootings specifically.

Most importantly, there was a great controversy that resulted from the poor conditions. Dr. Anna Pou and two nurses were accused of giving critically ill patients a lethal dose of medications. They were tried for second-degree murder after investigations at Memorial Hospital. Of the 41 bodies recovered at Memorial Hospital, 23 of the bodies were found to have an extremely high level of morphine which indicated possible euthanasia. However, Dr. Pou and the nurses were acquitted of all charges.

[[WMG: The second season will be centered around/allude to events at Memorial Hospital:]]
As stated above, the second season will revolve around individuals trying to survive during Hurricane Katrina, as well as those in power.

Memorial Hospital (now known as Ochsner Baptist Medical Center) was poorly equipped to handle the hurricane, and as a result lost power for several days after the storm. Doctors and nurses tried their best to help patients, as well as citizens who took shelter in the hospital, with limited supplies and no electricity. There was a severely delayed government response in evacuating patients, which made the situation far worse.

Most importantly, there was a great controversy that resulted from the poor conditions. Dr. Anna Pou, and a two other nurses, were accused of giving critically ill patients a lethal dose of medications. They were tried for second-degree murder after investigations at Memorial Hospital. Of the 41 bodies recovered at Memorial Hospital, 23 of the bodies were found to have an extremely high level of morphine which indicated possible euthanasia. However, Dr. Pou and the nurses were indicted of all charges.
