Under the Bright Poppy Fields a Valley of Darkness
By Mel Elorche
Uncovering the cold murder cases in the Antelope Valley of Hollywood screenwriter Gary
Devore and Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Jonathan Aujay
Sprawling poppy fields, aerospace, and secret military bases, California’s Antelope Valley is
known for these landmarks. Over the past decades, the Antelope Valley became more than a
significant geographical 3,000 square mile region with its red rock formations and hidden
canyons attractive to government weapons contractors such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop
Grumman, as well as Edwards Air Force Base.
This 11,000-year-old desert basin has become a character in the untold and unsolved murder and
missing person cases amidst covert federal activity and stand-offs between criminal
organizations and police. It is material that has inspired crime novelists and filmmakers for
decades.
