The Texas Killing Fields is an area bordering the Calder Oil Field, a 25-acre patch of land that is situated a mile from the stretch of Interstate 45 known as the "Highway of Hell" because of its high rate of traffic accidents.〔(The mystery of the Texas Killing Fields... And how one man may hold the answer to the 30 young women found murdered there | Mail Online )〕 Since the early 1970s roughly 30 bodies have been extracted from the fields, mainly consisting of young girls.〔(The real-life mystery of Texas' killing fields – CBS News )〕 Despite exhaustive efforts by the Texas City Police with the assistance of the FBI, very few cases have been solved. A film, ''Texas Killing Fields'', released in 2011, and a book, ''Deliver Us'', published in 2015, are based on cases from the fields. The fields have been described as "a perfect place () killing somebody and getting away with it."〔 After visiting some sites of the recovered remains in Texas City, Ami Canaan Mann, director of the film ''The Texas Killing Fields'', commented, "You could actually see the refineries that are in the South end of Texas City. You could see the I-45. But if you yelled no one would necessarily hear you, and if you ran there wouldn’t necessarily be anywhere to go."〔(Extra: "Texas Killing Fields" director on real-life cases – 48 Hours – CBS News )〕 == Victims == * Brenda Jones: age 14, from Galveston, Texas.
