In this final installment of our three-part series on Samuel Little, we pick up after the chilling events of Part 1 and Part 2, maintaining the same title format that has carried the story from the beginning. Part 3 delves into the latter half of Little’s criminal career—a period defined by increasing brutality, rampant evasion, and an ever-worsening descent into chaos.

This episode begins in 1984, following the collapse of earlier trials due to unreliable witnesses and scant evidence, and follows Little’s relentless rampage as he resumes his spree across multiple states. From his disturbing escalation of crimes in Florida and Georgia to his reign of terror in Los Angeles, where he targeted the most vulnerable, Little’s methods grew not only more heinous—incorporating necrophilia and post-mortem taunting—but also more fragmented, as decades of hard living and drug abuse began to take their toll on his memory.

As law enforcement struggled with a staggering backlog of cold cases, determined detectives like Lieutenant Roberts and Texas Ranger Holland spearheaded a breakthrough, utilizing cutting-edge DNA technology and the killer’s own eerily accurate portraits of his victims. These portraits, which bore the unmistakable marks of his signature brutality, became pivotal in linking Little to over 93 confirmed murders—though many believe the true count may be even higher.

Part 3 not only documents the final chapters of Little’s life—marked by his eventual arrest and conviction—but also serves as a grim reminder of the systemic failures that allowed a ghost-like predator to operate for decades. It’s a story of loss, neglect, and the desperate fight for justice for the forgotten victims whose lives were irretrievably stolen.

Join us as we bring closure to a case that has haunted America, ensuring that even if Samuel Little’s name now rests in infamy, the memories and identities of his victims will not be forgotten.
