The Kentucky woman who allegedly killed, dismembered, and then cooked the head and limbs of her mother in a pot reportedly was an aspiring actress until she suffered a motorcycle accident while living in California, according to a new report.
Torilena May Fields, 32, was arrested on October 9 after an 11-hour standoff with police at her mother's home in Mount Olivet, Kentucky. A construction worker who had been hired to do work at the house found the remains of dismembered Trudy Fields in the house's yard and contacted police.
