Heaven's Gate

This sweet, gap toothed, bow legged, puddin' thick Mom Mom poisoned everyone who stood in the way of her pill addiction. She gained a lot of admirers along the way, including evangelist Billy Graham, who envied the fact that she was going to see heaven before he did.

Velma Barfield: Death Row Granny

This goofball got his start in the weirdo world by socking a customer on his paper route then proceeded to murder people in and around their apartments. On top of all this, he would stab houseplants and dump garbage all over the floors of his home. If you like Lil Stinkers and want to support us, you can do so by going to Patreon.com/lilstinkers.

Coral Watts: Sunday Morning Slasher

This fella had a low tolerance for annoyance, which resulted in him not only killing people to close him, but also dozens of fellow prisoners. The man enjoyed killing so much that he got a tattoo that said, "I kill for pleasure." Despite murdering dozens of people, he was eventually released and started his own true crime podcast.  If you like Lil Stinkers and want to support us, you can do so by going to Patreon.com/lilstinkers.
