If you’re 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 killer’s 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 – 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 added—one in Willoughby Hills, Ohio, and another in New Orleans, Louisiana. Two previously unmatched confessions have been linked to unidentified bodies or “Jane Does.” Eight new portraits have been added. Little draws the portraits based on his memories of the victims.

Case/ Suspect History

After his parent’s divorce (1970s), 5yr Turner and his mother moved out of Warren, Arkansas to a small home in LA. His mother, Audrey Turner worked two jobs. Chester was described as a latch-key kid.

A relative, who requested privacy stated, “He didn’t go to the park or the gym, He couldn’t because his mother would not let him. He was always at home helping her. He didn’t have a regular childhood. He didn’t go nowhere."

Turner eventually dropped out of high school and started hanging out with the wrong crowd, portraying himself as a gang member, police said.

Around 1992, Turner began a rocky relationship with a woman named Felicia Collier, police said. The couple had a child but fought constantly. During one violent confrontation, a relative of Collier intervened and shot Turner.

She had done this drive many times before…

On July 1st, 1989, 32-year-old Pamela Webb left her home after 4th of July family gathering in Withrop, Maine to set out on a road trip she was very familiar with. She packed up her favorite things, including her trusty pup, Thumper, a beagle/basset hound mix, and hit the road in her 1981 blue Chevy Pickup towards Mason, New Hampshire to see her boyfriend for the long weekend. Her family had no idea that night that Pamela would never make it to her destination.

Later that night Pamela’s blue Chevy was found on the side of the highway near Biddeford with a flat tire and signs of a struggle nearby, but Pamela was nowhere to be found.

Almost two and a half weeks later, her body was found in the woods of New Hampshire three hours away from where her truck was stranded, and the medical examiner declared her cause of death “unspecified violent homicide.”

To this day, Maine State Police are still trying to fill in the pieces of a still fuzzy timeline that will answer the question: What happened to Pamela Webb?

Press play now to hear Pamela’s story, the angles that police have investigated, and the theories internet sleuths have discovered while trying to come up with answers to this cold case mystery.

Special thanks to Pamela’s niece, Angela, for sharing her personal stories.
