The narrative is about Robert Picton, a former pig farmer who turned into a millionaire and the owner of a notorious party venue called "Piggy Palace". Picton and his brother, along with their sister, were raised on a large pig farm in British Columbia. After their parents' death, the farm was passed down to them. However, the farm fell into decline, and they eventually sold off most of their property to an urban developer for over $5 million.
After a year of not knowing what to do with the money, they decided to establish a charity in 1996 called "Piggy Palace Good Times Society" with the intention of raising money for various organizations by running events. However, the charity became a cover for hosting wild drug and alcohol-fueled parties in the former slaughterhouse.
The parties drew crowds of up to 2000 people, predominantly bikers, drug addicts, and prostitutes. Robert Picton was known to recruit people for these parties, mostly women, offering them food, money, drugs, and alcohol. Women began disappearing from the downtown east side, leading to rumors of a serial killer.
In 1997, a woman named Wendy, who had been attacked by Picton at one of the parties, was found with a serious laceration on her face. Picton arrived at the hospital with a similar injury. He claimed that Wendy had attacked him, but the police arrested him on attempted murder charges.
Despite Picton's protestations, the police found a handcuff key in his pocket that opened Wendy's handcuff. Picton was let go after the charges were dropped. However, a former employee of the farm came forward and claimed to have seen illegal weapons in Picton's trailer, leading to a search warrant and raid on the farm.
The police found illegal guns and items connected to the missing women. Picton was rearrested and charged with murder. During a lengthy investigation, it was determined that Picton had killed 49 people, most of whom were missing women from the downtown east side.
