The show was born from short film Random Stop, about the killing of a sheriff. Are viewers ready for such visceral storytelling?
Last summer, filmmaker Ben Arfmann put viewers into the driver's seat of a routine traffic stop that went horribly wrong in Random Stop. A short film with an intimately fixed point of view, it told the story of the murder of Georgia sheriff's deputy Kyle Dinkheller by "disturbed Vietnam veteran" Andrew Howard Brannan. A Staff Pick on Vimeo, the short caught the attention of producers at the History Channel, who contacted Arfmann about developing an original fixed point-of-view series.
