DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's press release, December 2017) 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. On Thursday, January 4 at 9 PM ET/PT, Discovery will head to Isle of Wight County, Virginia to investigate a brutal cold case in the third season of the network's hit true-crime series KILLING FIELDS. KILLING FIELDS is co-executive produced by Emmy Award-winning producer Tom Fontana ("St. Elsewhere," "Homicide: Life On The Street," "Oz" and "The Philanthropist") and Academy Award-winning film director Barry Levinson ("Rain Man," "Diner," "Bugsy," "Wag the Dog" and "Good Morning, Vietnam"). Isle of Wight is an isolated farmland community in Virginia - miles from nearly everything and everyone. But the quiet community was marked by a gruesome homicide its residents cannot forget. In the summer of 2004, 28-year-old Carrie Singer was found beaten to death and half naked in a field. But who would have wanted her dead? And why could they never connect any DNA with the actual crime? The mysterious case never went anywhere. However, it has haunted lead investigator Randy Patrick for over a decade. Utilizing the latest cutting-edge technology, the Isle of Wight County Sheriff's Office has decided to re-open the case with the hope to find some real answers.
