S3/Ep. 3 (part 1) - Samuel Little
******** DISCLAMIER ********
If youâre sensitive to monstrous criminal behavior, I encourage you to please use caution when listening or stop.
************************************
Fasten your seatbelts, this American criminal is dubbed the most prolific serial killer based on the number of confirmed victims. He claims there are at least 93 women. These murders would last for several decades, across numerous states, but somehow, he was seemingly able to skirt authorities. Or at least for murder.
Additionally... This killerâs earlier crimes would lead an innocent man to be convicted. Thankfully, the Innocence Project would intervene. It wasn't until 2012, he would be arrested on an unrelated drug charge.
During the investigation, he stated, that his killings started in 1970, on New Year's Eve in Miami, "It was like drugs, I came to like it."

Updated â 10/1/2019: The continued investigation into the confessions of Samuel Little has resulted in several changes to this map. Five cases have been removed after being confirmed by law enforcement. Two new cases have been addedâone in Willoughby Hills, Ohio, and another in New Orleans, Louisiana. Two previously unmatched confessions have been linked to unidentified bodies or âJane Does.â Eight new portraits have been added. Little draws the portraits based on his memories of the victims.
