Daughter Charged with Murder After Mother’s Dismembered Body Found
Mount Olivet City, Kentucky – A 32-year-old woman is in custody after the dismembered body of her mother was discovered behind their home in Robertson County.
Kentucky State Police were called to a home on Brierly Ridge Road on Wednesday afternoon following a 911 call reporting a dead body.
A man who had arrived to work on Trudy Fields’ property said he could not get a response when he knocked on the door.
Upon walking around to the back of the house, he discovered a pile of hair, a blood-stained mattress, and drag marks in the grass.
The man followed the drag marks to the backyard, where he found what he believed to be Trudy Fields’ dismembered body.
When troopers arrived, they confirmed the gruesome discovery and found additional body parts on another mattress and a blood-stained stick on the back porch.
The man told police that he had last seen Trudy Fields the previous day when she accompanied them to the property gate.
He noted that Trudy Fields and her daughter, 32-year-old Torilena Fields, were the only people at the home and that Torilena had been behaving strangely, casting spells on them and being confrontational.
The Kentucky State Police Special Response Team was called to the scene and executed a search warrant for the home.
Torilena Fields refused to exit the home and had to be forcibly removed after multiple rounds of tear gas were deployed.
Upon entering the home, authorities found multiple body parts cooked inside a stainless steel pot in the oven.
Torilena Fields is charged with obstructing governmental operations, tampering with physical evidence, and abuse of a corpse. Kentucky State Police said additional charges may be filed as the investigation continues.
She is currently being held at the Bourbon County Detention Center.

Venezuelan national Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis shot in the leg by an immigration agent in Minneapolis
On January 14, 2025, federal law enforcement personnel were engaged in a targeted enforcement operation involving Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis, a Venezuelan national who has been present in the United States since 2022.
The operation escalated into a high-speed pursuit, a physical confrontation, and an ambush by multiple subjects, necessitating the use of a defensive firearm discharge by a federal agent.
At approximately 6:50 PM, federal officers initiated a targeted traffic stop of a vehicle operated by Sosa-Celis.
The subject refused to comply with law enforcement commands and attempted to flee the scene.
During the pursuit, the subjectโs vehicle collided with a stationary, parked car.
Following the collision, the subject abandoned the vehicle and fled the scene on foot.
A federal agent pursued the suspect on foot and successfully intercepted him. As the agent attempted to effect an arrest, the subject became combative, resulting in a violent struggle on the ground.
During this confrontation, two additional male subjects emerged from a nearby residence to intervene.
These individuals reportedly ambushed the agent, utilizing a snow shovel and a broom handle to strike the officer.
The situation escalated when the primary suspect, Sosa-Celis, regained his footing and joined the two additional subjects in the assault.
Reports indicate the suspect struck the agent with a blunt object (identified as either the shovel or broom handle).
Citing an immediate threat to his life while being outnumbered and actively assaulted by three individuals, the agent discharged his service weapon in self-defense.
The discharge struck Sosa-Celis in the lower extremity (leg). Following the shot, all three suspects retreated into a nearby apartment complex and initiated a barricade situation.
Following a brief standoff, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) successfully secured the perimeter and apprehended all three individuals without further injury.
Both the federal agent and Sosa-Celis were transported to a local medical facility for treatment.
Images from the scene showed Sosa-Celis conscious and alert during transport.
All three subjects involved in the assault are currently in the custody of ICE.
Further charges related to the assault on a federal officer and resisting arrest are pending review by the U.S. Attorneyโs Office.
