Plot Synopsis

ROCKY MOUNTAIN LAW is a one-hour reality series that follows Sheriff Deputies in the counties of Boulder, Eagle and Grand, Colorado, as they fight crime in America's most rugged terrain: The Rocky Mountains. Intense manhunts by foot, skis and snowmobiles; attempting to solve complex murders and drug running mysteries, are all in a day's work while trying to keep the Rockies one of the most beautiful places on earth. In the series premiere, a resident shoots and kills a man he believes to be a masked, armed intruder -- only to learn the victim is a friend. With just two witnesses at the scene, and one of them dead, investigators must determine whether the shooter is telling the truth and whether he really fired his weapon out of self-defense. Then, in the second episode, a Rocky Mountain mystery evolves when deputies find the skeletal remains of a man near the summit of a mountain in Eagle County. Detectives, coroners and forensic pathologists work to determine who he is, how he died and why. Then, in the mountain foothills, deputies conduct a manhunt for an individual wanted for alleged domestic abuse. In the high country, deputies on snowmobile patrol charge a man with DUI -- driving under the influence on a snowmobile. And two mountain gold-panners have a run-in with the law when they are reported for openly carrying high-powered weapons. Later in the series, a man escaped from jail hides in Boulder County, Colorado, which covers hundreds of square miles, including a stretch of the Rocky Mountains -- the perfect place to hang low. After eluding law enforcement agencies for more than a week, the fugitive is spotted in the mountains of Boulder County. Sheriff's deputies conduct an exhaustive manhunt, resulting in a dangerous face-off between the escaped prisoner and a SWAT team.
