I'm sorry, this is ALREADY True Detective season 3, crossed with the Coens.

So who plays everyone involved?

A Modesto attorney, his wife and three California Highway Patrol officers were arrested Friday along with four alleged accomplices in connection with the 2012 killing of a 26-year-old man who was targeted for stealing scrap metal from the attorney and whose body was then dumped in the Stanislaus National Forest, officials said.

Authorities did not describe the alleged roles of the nine co-conspirators. But defense lawyer Frank Carson and CHP Officer Walter Wells are among those accused of murdering Korey Kauffman of Turlock, whose decomposing body was found by hunters in the Mariposa County forest 1½ years later.

Wells, who has since left the department, allegedly participated in the slaying along with Carson’s wife, Georgia Geanette DeFilippo, and three other men, Robert Lee Woody and brothers Baljit and Daljit Atwal, who own the Pop-N-Cork liquor stores in Turlock.

They allegedly conspired with CHP Officers Scott McFarlane and Eduardo Quintanar Jr., as well as Carson’s stepdaughter, Christina DeFilipo, who are accused of being accessories to the crime.

Also, as ILXor Matt M. put it, "Yep. He was just a scrapper who pissed off the attorney. That's all there is to the story. Nothing more here. Show's over, folks. Go home."
