Victim portraits by Samuel Little, identified by the FBI as the most prolific US serial killer ever, could crack cold cases.
Most of the women in Samuel Little's hand-drawn portraits seem to be frowning.
The 79-year-old California inmate went on to produce more than 30 color portraits, which the FBI hopes will help law enforcement match Little's confessions to victims who, in many cases, have yet to be identified. Little has confessed to 93 slayings across the nation between 1970 and 2005, targeting prostitutes, women addicted to drugs and others he thought wouldn't be missed. Law enforcement agencies in several states have been able to confirm 50 slayings. They are working to verify others, but have been stymied because, in many cases, there is no missing person report and no body.
The heavy publicity surrounding Little's case has yielded fresh leads from people who lost relatives or friends years ago, Palazzolo added.
