About Killing Fields
Across America, there are isolated places that appear untouched. In these desolate and sprawling areas – known as killing fields – dozens of deaths remain mysteries, baffling anyone daring enough to investigate.
Under Sheriff Brett Stassi and Major Ronnie Hebert, detectives Rodie Sanchez, Aubrey St. Angelo, Lori Morgan, Jeremy Sanchez, Leslie Bradford, and Brett Stassi, Jr. investigate real crimes in the small community of Iberville Parish, Louisiana, located just 15 miles from the state capitol, Baton Rouge.
Shot in real time, KILLING FIELDS picks up from last season as the team zeros in on the infamous 1997 homicide of the former Louisiana State University student Eugenie Boisfontaine. Rodie is more determined than ever to close the case that has haunted him for nearly two decades.
But that isnโt the only case that catches their attention. The Iberville Parish Sheriffโs Office tracks another terrifying case after evidence surfaces in a nearby Parish of a body stuffed inside a barrel. Rodie believes that this is tied to an unsolved disappearance he worked 26 years ago. Even more compelling โ the facts surrounding the barrel are eerily similar to what the prime suspect once admitted in a separate investigation for that missing personโs case. But even with such information, Rodie could never lock him up because the body could not be foundโฆ Perhaps until now.
Together, with the guidance of Major Ronnie Hebert, the team works tirelessly to secure crucial evidence, uncover grisly facts, and pursue new leads โ all with one mission in mind: closing these cases and bringing justice to the victimsโ families. With the advancement in forensic technologyโalong with good old-fashioned police workโthe team gets closer to capturing the truth that leads them in a cat and mouse chase. Will Rodie be able to keep good on his word? And can the team finally bring closure to the many victims and their families?
