Samuel Little's Houston Confession

Five years after analysts with the FBI’s Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP) began linking cases to convicted murderer Samuel Little—and nearly 18 months after a Texas Ranger began to elicit from him a breathtaking number of confessions—the FBI has confirmed Little to be the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history.

Little has confessed to 93 murders, and FBI crime analysts believe all of his confessions are credible. Law enforcement has been able to verify 50 confessions, with many more pending final confirmation.

Little says he strangled his 93 victims between 1970 and 2005. Many of his victims’ deaths, however, were originally ruled overdoses or attributed to accidental or undetermined causes. Some bodies were never found.

“For many years, Samuel Little believed he would not be caught because he thought no one was accounting for his victims,” said ViCAP Crime Analyst Christie Palazzolo. “Even though he is already in prison, the FBI believes it is important to seek justice for each victim—to close every case possible.”

The FBI is asking for the public’s help in matching the remaining unconfirmed confessions. ViCAP, with the support of the Texas Rangers, has provided additional information and details about five cases in hopes that someone may remember a detail that could further the investigation.

Lets take a look at his Houston Victim he claims to have murdered:

Unmatched Confession: Black female between 25-28 years old killed between 1976 and 1979 or in 1993.

Little Drew this from memory.

Here is a female found in 1980 here in Houston:

HPD Incident #20470880

Murder3600 StokesDecember 10, 1985 / 1500 hrs

On December 10, 1980 the body of a young African American Female was discovered in the 3600 block of Stokes. The found female was lying on the ground under interstate 45 freeway located about six miles from downtown Houston alongside a railroad track.

The body was discovered by employees working on an outdoor advertisement billboard, after noticing a foot sticking out from under the mattress. There were two thin gold bracelets and one orange bracelet found on her left wrist, and two necklaces around her neck. The complainant has never been identified.

Houston Police Department sketch artists, Lois Gibson, completed a composite of her morgue photo as a depiction of what she may look like. The jewelry is being shown to help in the identity of this murder victim.

The Houston Police Department Homicide Division Cold Case Squad is requesting anyone with information about this murder to contact the Cold Case Squad at 713-308-3618 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.

Also if anyone is missing a loved one from 1980 who may resemble the complainant or recognizes the jewelry please contact either number listed above.

Lets get this case solved
