Plot
editThe Killing Secret was thought to be based on the true story of Emily Garcia,[1] however, her murder was later solved[2] and does not match the storyline of the film. It may also have been based in part on the murder of Becky Stowe, by her boyfriend Robert Leamon.[3]
In the film, Greg (Kassen) is dating Nicole (Meyers) but sleeps with Emily (Frye) who becomes pregnant. Faced with the loss of his college athletic scholarship, Greg kills Emily. The film revolves around the investigation and eventual arrest and conviction of Greg for the murder.
