From the liner notes

On December 15, 1995, Steven Avkast and Locus Wheeler, the hosts of a cable show called "Fact or Fiction", went into the Pine barrens of Nwe Jersey. Aided by the filmmakers they were going to do the first live broadcast in search of the legendary Jersey Devil. Only Suerd came out alive. It took two days to find the bodies, four days to put the bodies back together and a jury one and half hours to sentence Suerd to life in prison.
