In a chilling case that has stunned the small town of Mount Olivet , Kentucky , a 32-year-old woman, Torilena May Fields , has been arrested for the brutal murder and dismemberment of her mother, Trudy Fields .

Fields, an aspiring actress who went by the stage name Naomi Navarre during her time in California, is accused of not only killing her mother but also cooking parts of her body, including the severed head. She is facing multiple charges, including abuse of a corpse, evidence tampering, and obstruction.

Police were called to Trudy Fields' home on October 9 after a worker discovered a disemboweled human torso in the backyard. The scene was so horrifying that authorities were forced to initiate an 11-hour standoff before Fields was apprehended. Investigators later found severed body parts — including a charred head, hands, and feet—inside a pot in the oven that was still warm, as reported by Fox56.

According to the Robertson County grand jury indictment, Fields allegedly shot her mother in the head, stabbed her repeatedly, and dismembered the body. She is also accused of killing the family dog in what investigators describe as an unprovoked and intentional act. Evidence found at the scene, including blood-soaked mattresses and drag marks leading to the backyard, added to the horror.

The worker who initially discovered the remains described a bizarre encounter with Fields. “She was casting spells on me,” he reportedly told 911 operators, alluding to Fields' erratic behavior.

For many who knew her, Fields' actions are difficult to comprehend. Once a hopeful actress with roles in two films — The Desert Project and A Dance Story in 2019 — her life had taken a dark and disturbing turn. Fields had not posted on social media since September 2022, but family members suggest that a motorcycle accident in California may have contributed to her mental unraveling.

Olivia Brock, Fields' cousin, was reportedly quoted as saying that the accident left her with a traumatic brain injury. “She was an actress and doing her thing out there,” Brock explained. “I guess we were told a couple of months ago that she was in a bad motorcycle accident and sustained a brain injury. I wonder if that’s what caused this.”

Other family members share similar sentiments. Todd Brock, Fields' uncle, expressed disbelief at her actions. “I think somebody has lost control of their mind,” he said. “The girl in the mug shot? That’s not the girl we know.” He also mentioned hearing rumors that Fields had been involved in witchcraft or Satanism, adding a disturbing layer to the case.

Fields was reportedly under the influence of drugs when she was arrested, though police have yet to specify the substances involved. She is currently being held on a $1.5 million bond at the Bourbon County Detention Center, awaiting trial for the gruesome murder.

As the community grapples with the horrifying details, the Fields family is left to mourn both the tragic death of Trudy and the unraveling of a once-promising young woman.
