About the Show

Executive produced by Laszlo Barna, THE PIG FARM takes an in-depth look at the story of Pickton, the police who investigated him, and the many questions that remain unanswered.

“We spent years following Pickton’s story and making this documentary,” said Barna. “It was a difficult story to delve into, but now that the publication bans have been lifted we can finally tell the story that unfolded over dozens of months. We can finally help viewers understand how this notorious serial killer got away with murder for so long.”

The documentary delves deep into the life of Pickton and his closest associates during the years that women went missing from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Several former acquaintances and employees reveal on-camera that they kept key information from police for years that could have saved many lives, and put Pickton behind bars much sooner. Their revelations paint a chilling picture of life on the farm… where Pickton played white knight to the down and out, creating an ever-expanding circle of need and a conspiracy of silence.
