In 1987, 18-year-old Michelle Schofield was found dead in a phosphate pit in Florida. Two years later, her husband, Leo Schofield, was convicted of her murder and sentenced to life in prison. Fifteen years after his conviction, previously unidentified fingerprints found in Michelle’s car were matched to Jeremy Scott—a violent teenager who lived nearby. Host Gilbert King uncovers startling new evidence that Jeremy is responsible for the murder of Michelle Schofield as well as a string of additional murders. But when Gilbert coaxes a confession out of Jeremy, the State of Florida refuses to believe him. Gilbert King digs deeper, uncovering chilling details of Jeremy’s past crimes and the darkness he’s carried with him. As their unlikely connection grows, Gilbert helps Jeremy confront the painful truths of his violent history while navigating the fractured relationship between Jeremy and the son he never knew. With new revelations and a search for redemption, Bone Valley takes unexpected turns—bringing haunting questions of justice, forgiveness, and the possibility of change. Gilbert King is the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Devil in the Grove, which led to the exonerations of four innocent men.

By taking Michelle’s life, Jeremy not only shattered her family’s world—he also took Leo’s freedom. Now, in an unlikely and unexpected moment—these two men, connected by Michelle Schofield’s murder, speak at last, their conversation heavy with the weight of the past. Leo offers something unexpected: forgiveness and gratitude. And Jeremy responds with something he’s never truly given before: an apology. As Gilbert brings Justin the answers he’s been looking for, Justin feels a weight lift. He no longer sees himself as an echo of his father’s worst acts. And for the first time, Jeremy and Justin begin writing to each other. Their letters reveal a new side of Jeremy—vulnerable, searching, deeply human. This is not the end of the story. It’s the beginning of something neither man thought possible: a relationship. In the end, redemption isn’t about escaping the truth, but about searching for it, confronting it, and finding the humanity still buried beneath.

Some truths never see the light. Gilbert has long believed that Jeremy Scott is responsible for more deaths than the state acknowledges—especially the unsolved murder of a cab driver in Intercession City. He’s tried everything he can think of to bring attention to the case, but the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office will not cooperate. Then, out of nowhere, a retired detective—the one who led the investigation that resulted in the arrest and eventual acquittal—reaches out to Gilbert, offering to help. The State finally agrees to reopen the cab driver case, but the lines between author and advocate blur. Gilbert works with Jeremy—an unlikely collaborator—to chase the truth and bring resolution to a family that’s waited decades. But justice doesn’t always wait. And it doesn’t always come.

As Gilbert’s relationship with Jeremy deepens, it’s tested by Jeremy’s darkest instincts. After a long silence, Jeremy reveals he’s been thrown into solitary confinement because he stabbed another inmate—possibly in self-defense. Possibly not. Gilbert is forced to reckon with the contradictions: the man trying to right past wrongs, and the man still capable of harm. In letters and phone calls, in moments of rage and vulnerability, Jeremy opens a window into who he is now… and what still haunts him. Even in solitary confinement, Jeremy begins to connect: with Gilbert, through books the author sends him, and eventually, with himself.

Justin’s life has been shaped by absence—of answers, of explanations, and his father. Now that he’s reaching back, he’s haunted by what he might find: rumors of brutality, inherited darkness, a legacy of violence. As Gilbert helps Justin trace the moments that defined Jeremy’s path—especially the day he killed Donald Moorehead—Justin begins to confront an impossible question: if Jeremy had been stopped sooner, Leo would not have spent three decades in prison, but would Justin even exist? This is not just a story about a murder. It’s about what we inherit, what we carry, and the fear that we might be made of the very things we fear most.

Among those drawn in is someone who has every reason not to be: Jeremy’s son, Justin. Now 35, Justin has never met his father, never wanted to. But something’s shifted. He wants answers. Through a conversation years in the making, Justin’s mother Jami opens up about the relationship she once had with Jeremy—a relationship she’s never fully shared with anyone. Now, through Gilbert, mother and son begin to uncover a truth that’s been buried for decades.
