Prosecutor: More than 60 deaths now linked to serial killer

DALLAS (June 7, 2019) — A Texas prosecutor said Friday that investigators have linked more than 60 killings in at least 14 states to a 79-year-old California inmate who may be the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history.

Ector County District Attorney Bobby Bland said Samuel Little continues to cooperate with investigators from around the country who interrogate him in prison about cold case killings dating back to the 1970s. Among those who spoke to him were investigators from Ohio, where Little grew up and where he’s suspected of killing at least five women.

Little was convicted of killing three Los Angeles-area women and pleaded guilty to killing a Texas woman, and he’s serving life sentences in California. Little, who lived a nomadic lifestyle, claims to have killed 93 women as he crisscrossed the country over the years.

Bland said Little is in failing health and has exhausted his appeals, leading him to be forthcoming with investigators.

“At this point in his life I think he’s determined to make sure that his victims are found,” he said.

  1. My brothers first wife older brother was once considered to be the primary suspect in the Green River killings in Western Washington back in the mid 80’s. If anything he was a copy cat killer and went to prison for possessing stolen credit cards belonging to some of the Green River victims. He also gave my brother an older early 70’s Cadillac which my brother gave to my dad. Anyway one day King County detectives showed up at my dad’s house with a search warrant for the Cadillac and checked it out but didn’t find any evidence in it. My poor brother’s first wife was a real piece of work coming from an extremely dysfunctional family which he didn’t know at the time he married her. Her brother ended up dying in prison from cancer and nobody ever found out if he was involved with any of the killings although there was a lot of circumstantial evidence linking him to at least some of the killings. Her dad was a prominent pharmacist who once upon a time had the largest supply of pornographic magazines available for sale at his drug store which in part explains my brothers ex wife coming from a dysfunctional background.
