Character background

The daughter of Conrad Ecklie, Morgan was brought up by her mother and step-father (whose name she later adopted) in Los Angeles.

Upon coming into contact with the Las Vegas team, it is revealed that, as a child, Morgan spent time with Catherine Willows.

Storylines

Season 11

During her debut appearance, Morgan works with the CSIs to track Nate Haskell, an escaped serial killer, in Los Angeles. The take-down of Haskell had effects for both the LVPD and the LAPD, and it is insinuated that Brody was fired from the Crime Lab for her involvement in the case.

Season 12

Brody travels to Las Vegas in the season twelve premiere, "73 Seconds", in order to ask her father for a position within the Las Vegas Crime Lab. In "Bittersweet"; however, Morgan tells Greg that she is not interested in dating guys on the job, despite the flirtatious nature of their relationship. Later, in "CSI Down", Morgan is abducted on a rescue helicopter.

Season 14

In the season 14 premiere Morgan is kidnapped and later is shot in the back by Ellie Brass.
