Between Oct. 8 and 9, 2024, Torilena Fields, 33, allegedly killed her mother, Trudy, before treating her corpse “in a way that would outrage ordinary family sensibilities,” according to a grand jury indictment.
She was arrested by Kentucky State Police troopers on Oct. 14 and charged with murder, abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence, and torture of a dog, as well as being indicted for obstructing government operations by allegedly threatening to use force against first responders.
Fields underwent a court-mandated psychiatric evaluation in July after her attorney raised questions about her ability to participate in her defense.
Her lawyer said budgetary constraints could be slowing down the analysis and entry of evidence in the case.
She’ll be in court on Monday for a pre-trial conference as the investigation into her mother’s death continues.
